Opinion: ACC Grad Class - I want to start by saying I took her, knowing the reviews, but convinced myself that it would be different because she would be teaching a class that she currently works in. I heard her mention her grad classes would be chill! No exams, there isn't any content afterward, so we can go at our own pace. I was wrong, and she lied; she's not the worst teacher I've ever had, but she's also very condescending and talks down to us, which puts her close to the worst. Worst in the accounting department. I also want to begin by saying I am a good student. I do my homework and study for exams. She also over-explains things and brings up content from other classes from years ago. It's like she gets power over being the smartest in the room. She will bring up stuff like "have you guys learned this?" and quickly explain complex topic saying well learn it eventually which just confuses the class even more. and then were expected to know it to do assignments. She doesn't prep for classes as well. She will do her notes on the fly which leads to multiple mistakes, and she doesn't know where the box gets some of the numbers from. One thing is, she's usually pretty available, like she's in her office all the time. You can only ask questions during office hours. But even then, she's not very helpful. It's some wraparound the answer; it's like she's unwilling to answer the questions you have. I have a friend in class who asked a question. She asked for his answer and told him it was a valid conclusion, but then it was wrong?? What was the point of asking a question then? Finally, workload. She is a workaholic with no other hobbies and likes for her students to be that way. She will laugh as she gives you a ton of homework and tell you it's going to be fun. She's so out of touch with reality. If you want a chill graduate semester, do not take a class with her. She will load you with assignments that take HOURS to do. And she will stack her classes with the same workload. If you take multiple of her classes, you will drown when she has multiple big assignments on the same day across classes. I have yet to take my cumulative take-home final exam, which I have already told will take me "multiple hours" to do. Stay tune - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: pre calc - I went to class, did the homework, and went to SI. When I went to ask her for help because I was continuously failing her exams, she told me to stop eating and study more. Any review that is telling you shes sweet.... I got an outside tutor to pass. She should not teach at Baylor anymore. You do not tell a freshman girl to stop eating to pass a class - Grade In Class:B+

Opinion: 5361 - Corporate Taxation: I thought that because she does this line of work at PwC that the class would go differently compared to her intermediate accounting class for finance majors; I was wrong. She is horrible at teaching and gives you so much work as if your life revolves around her class. If you go to her office hours for help, she rarely gives you a straightforward answer and, instead, will riddle you towards whatever answer she desires. Her way of encouraging her students to push through her class is by calling everything "fun" afterwards, which gets so annoying. If you're in grad school and want a chill class to either study the CPA or just have a nice semester, DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS!! P.S. if you're doing MTax, good luck because you have to take her no matter what. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 2402 - Genuinely the worst prof I've had at Baylor. He has no idea what he is talking about and when you ask him questions he seems to just get more confused. When he lectures he will ask questions that make no sense then get concerned when nobody answers but its only because nobody understands what he is saying. I've never had a processor who seems so confused by their own lessons. On the bright side, the exams aren't too bad because the lab prepares you and you get a cheat sheet. - Grade In Class:B

Opinion: 2301 - Dr. Anderson's class is certainly difficult, but an A is attainable as long as you are willing to work through the reading thoroughly. Expect to spend 3-4 hours per week on reading assignments. This might seem like a lot, but you really need this preparation to score well on her quizzes, which are unannounced, free-response (not multiple choice) quizzes given once per week. They are hard to score well on if you don't know the assigned reading inside and out, so you have to know the material well before coming to class. Other parts of your grade include participation, two in-class essays, a verbal midterm, and the final exam which include multiple choice and short-answers questions. The class is very discussion-based, so she doesn't write much down on the whiteboard, which can make note-taking difficult sometimes. However, she'll often mention a "big theme" of whatever work the class is discussing, and this is what you need to jot down in your notes. Overall a tough class to get the hang of, and of course you need to be half-decent at writing for the in-class essays, but as long as you are willing to put in the work on reading assignments, you can definitely do well. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: BIC - ABSOLUTE BEST PROFESSOR IN THE ENTIRE BIC PROGRAM. Your experience will be incomplete if you do not take his class!! Explains the content very well, is engaging, and is not unreasonable in his expectations. Grades fairly and if you put in the work as is required of any BIC class you will be fine! - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: BIC - Dr. Cann is a nice lady but I do not recommend you take her class. Also somehow a lot of her original comments have been taken down (so I guess only the best and worst comments are left). First off, she does not really teach a lot of content well in my opinion, and has a tendency to make everything about her. I think I learned more about her personal life and hobbies in class than actual content, which is very unhelpful for the exams because somehow those end up being open ended and related to very niche content that was only discussed briefly. For any BIC class there will be a good amount of workload, but Dr. Cann barely teaches anything. I had at least half of my class show up not having done the readings but somehow it seemed like she also didn’t really have a clue what was going on. Last thing, Cann is unfortunate very well known to have favorites (usually the oversharers). She also is a little biased in my opinion, and dislikes the opinions of students who are politically opposed to her views. She always is unprofessional in class, is unprepared in teaching material and kind of talks about academia as an extension of her life experiences. We are currently learning very little curriculum and I wish I could have chosen somebody else. please steer clear, this class is honestly a guessing game half the time and you will be better prepared for success elsewhere. I took her class thinking wow okay she went to harvard but was sadly mistaken by the lack of learning done in this class. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: World Cultures - Never had a worse professor. She encourages students not to write bad reviews on BU books but it’s like if you have to tell students that maybe there’s a bigger issue. Great person, not very helpful professor. Grades very harshly and teaches very little content. - Grade In Class:DROP

Opinion: 3320 - Professor Joyce is by far my favorite professor here at Baylor!! She deeply cares about the well being of her students and she is so passionate about teaching! Her class is super well structured and she has some quizzes and two exams during the semester. She's super available whenever you have a question or need help on a project. Take her!! - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 2306 - Dr. Burris is an interesting man, to say the least. He teaches only Greek Myths for a class called Greek & Roman Mythology. He'll make snide comments about the students from time to time, and in general seems a little overconfident. If you can get over his personality, you'll learn a lot, but his daily quizzes are a pain just because he sometimes picks an insignificant detail. His exams/quizzes are spelling-specific, so you need to know how it's spelled exactly for free response. It is a reading-heavy class. - Grade In Class:A
