Opinion: 2301 - My goat. Bro got his PhD from Harvard but you couldn't even tell unless you looked it up. Absolutely no Ivy league tower left in him; pure chill. Just do the readings and some days if you are busy and have other course work just skim it and look up a summary and just try to be honest. I'm a stem major and English is the last thing on my mind but he made it an interesting class. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: REL 1350 - I LOVE MR CHAVES!!!!!! Easiest class ever! He gives 1 quiz a week online open notes(so u know what that means...), they were very easy. The tests are so free. I got a 100 on all of them. He gives u a study guide with every possible question that can be on the test so just study those and the test is the exact same. He is very funny and entertaining. 100% recommend he is amazing!!! TAKE HIM!!! - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: MH1331 - Dr. Chittenden is the hidden gem of the medical humanities department. She has a Ph.D in English and also teaches literature courses. Her class is heavily discussion-based. She runs weekly or biweekly reading groups where students are assigned one of four roles and share their analysis, followed by a full Socratic discussion. We occasionally have quizzes and they are all open-note and open-book with only 5-6 questions. The course also includes 2 essays and 2 exams, both really straightforward. She gives us a study guide for each exams and if you study the study guide you should have no issue getting an A. The workload is really light. Outside of class, Dr. Chittenden is kind, understanding, and unbiased. As a relatively young professor, she connects with students easily and responds to emails quickly.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: CHE1301H/1302H - I’m surprised to see his rating. Dr. McGrath is quite literally the GOAT. He always opens class by making students guess the attendance code, and he always tells some cringe dad jokes, but it’s funny because it’s cringe. He connects with students really well, and he has an assignment where students have to come to his office hours and have a chat about something interesting about themselves. He responds to emails pretty quickly, and his email style is really funny (he loves to use emojis). Most importantly, He knows his chemistry. He is really good at explaining the concepts, and he solves a lot of practice questions in class, showing each step, which are very similar to questions on his exams. He also posts around 4–5 practice exams for each exams, and those are really helpful. Yes, I know a lot of people complain about TopHat and Aktiv, but Dr. McGrath also doesn’t like TopHat. He has previously mentioned that TopHat was a departmental agreement, so he can’t really do anything about it, but Aktiv is really helpful for refreshing your memory, and some of the Aktiv sections are extra credit for your exam. He does not like to curve his exams, but he does provide curves when needed. Also, his Scottish accent is quite soothing. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 1380 - Dr. Klein was honestly my favorite professor this semester and I wasn't expecting that at all going in. No PowerPoints, just her teaching and telling stories, but the stories actually help the concepts click way more than slides would. The laundromat stuff sounds random but it works. Quizzes are easy points, there's plenty of extra credit, and as long as you ask questions when you're lost you'll be fine. Class wasn't even that hard, just show up and pay attention. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 1301 - Dr. Chu was an alright professor. I retook this class, and while she does provide resources like SI sessions, extra videos, and supplemental help, I personally didn’t feel as supported as I needed to succeed. That said, I think part of it was also on me and my own study habits. - Grade In Class:D

Opinion: 1420 - Dr. Smith was very difficult to learn from. Most lectures consisted of her reading directly from the slides, which were often overloaded with information, making it hard to keep up or take notes. Instead of using class time to review for exams, there was a lot of unnecessary in-class work that didn’t feel helpful. The exams themselves were very long, and there were barely any opportunities for extra credit. Overall, if you take this class, be prepared to rely heavily on yourself to learn the material. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 3309 - As a native Spanish speaker, the material itself wasn’t difficult for me—it was more the way the class was taught. Lectures mostly consisted of reading directly from the slides, which didn’t add much beyond what was already provided. If you don’t stay on top of the homework, it’s very easy to fall behind. She also cold-calls students, which can be stressful if you’re not prepared. The exams are extremely long as well. It can sometimes feel like if you’re not one of her preferred students, you may not get as much support, which can be a downside. I’d also recommend finding the books online in PDF format if possible. Overall, not my favorite class, but it’s tolerable if you manage your time and keep up with the work. - Grade In Class:B+
