Opinion: 1350 - Joe Coker is a mid professor. His teaching isn't necessarily bad, but when it comes to his exams, expect a bad grade. I am a hard-working student who studies for exams, and no matter how much studying I do for his class, I can't even make a B on his exams. As a required course at Baylor, I should not be fighting this hard for an A. - Grade In Class:B

Opinion: CHE 3332 - Took this class in the summer after I failed Hudson's class, was pleasantly surprised by how well it worked out in the end. I was depressed and discouraged but this guy actually practiced questions with us IN CLASS. Pointed out all the minute details to expect on his exams and I ended up doing not too bad on his exams (came w/ a lot of prayer to God ofc). Definitely the best Ochem professor I ever had, I even told him this but I wish I had him for Ochem 1. If you're taking Ochem, definitely try to see if you can get Plunk. The content won't be any easier but he tries to work with you with his curves on the exam. Again, the best Ochem professor I ever had. Thank you Dr. Plunk. - Grade In Class:B+

Opinion: Genetics? I forgor - Just came here to say this, but she is a great professor. Accent might be heavy but she makes her points very clear. Exams are fair, I probably would have had an A if I cared, went from a B+ to a C cuz I bombed the final lol. She\'s great though. Oh also don\'t get the clicker, you DO NOT need it to pass. The clicker thing is just for the polls but you can answer the questions just the same using tophat. I did risk it just cuz I didn\'t care too much but it is doable. Don\'t get the clicker - Grade In Class:C+

Opinion: CHE 3331 - As a transfer student, this course was a very rude awakening to the expected course load at Baylor. Dr. Kane is a great guy, he even offered to show up outside office hours, but it's mainly because the whole class asked him to. I have had problems trying to set up office hours because he rarely reads my emails, but up front he can be quite engaging. His lectures would have been helpful if the exams matched what he taught in class. Basically expect everything he teaches to be 3x harder on the exam. I think I would've learned more from actually focusing on the textbook rather than listening in lecture. Definitely READ the TEXTBOOK though! Further Notes: I was lucky to get a C+, I ended up with I think a 50+ on his exam, and maybe a low 70 - high 60 but still passed. One last thing: I'd just READ the BOOK and do the practice problems on it if I were you. - Grade In Class:C+

Opinion: NSC/PSY 3370 - Affective Neuro. The only time I've really said this but, this class was simultaneously the hardest class I've had to take and my FAVORITE. I am a psychology major, so it was a shot in the dark to take an upper level neuro class but I am so glad I did. Dr. Schwartz is hands-down one of the best professors I have had in my time at Baylor. He truly wants everyone to succeed and learn. There is a quiz every week, and a homework every week. The homework is definitely time consuming. However, it is due before class rather than midnight which is nice. The tests were very difficult, and I am someone who has an A standard for myself everywhere and I got around mid 80s each time (only taken two so far).I like the way the units are designed and Dr. Schwartz does a good job at engaging the class and helping you really consolidate the information. I learned a lot about HOW to study through this class-- simply because you need to. The tests require a lot of studying. Overall, Dr. Schwartz made me more interested and passionate about Neuroscience, and I feel like I left this class having learned so much. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: SOC 3311 - Dr. Park is great. He is funny and likes to engage students with a discussion at the beginning of class about current world events or problems. I wish the powerpoints were more engaging, the content is interesting but they way the lectures was designed did not keep me very engaged. There are essays due throughout the semester, which are graded pretty leniently. Dr. Park is great and if you care about race and ethnicity you should take this class. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: PSY 3308 - I am not sure what previous bad reviews mean. Dr. Young is very upbeat, funny, and excited to teach. I do agree that this class' exams are difficult. There are a lot of terms, techniques, names, theories to cover. I found it interesting, but it was difficult to keep up with sometimes. Otherwise, Dr. Young is helpful and a good teacher. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 2301 - Dr. Hinojsa is one of the BEST great texts professors you can take! You can tell she enjoys discussing the books we read and tries to make class engaging as well as informational. As any Great Text class there is a LOT of reading. It can range from 20-100 pages for each class, just depends on the text you are reading and it is manageable. She gives 10 random quizzes throughout the semester on the content of the text but they are not difficult and spark notes can get you through most of them. There are two essays one on The Odyssey and one on The Aeneid. She is not a very harsh grader and will give helpful feedback if you just come and talk to her. There are also graded discussions (seminars) for each of the texts usually 1-2 per text. If you talk at least three times your grade is at a 90 where you can then build up with a higher score. There is a midterm and a final about the texts but Dr. Hinojosa provides a study guide of exactly what you need to know for each and the format of each of them . It's a mix of mcq and frq nothing too difficult. Additionally, for the two essays she allows you to use a week suspension on one of them without any penalty, She drops your lowest quiz grade and even gave out a free 100 to the class at some point. I would definitely recommend taking her for great texts if you get the chance because she is super sweet and truly cares! If she sees your trying she will reward you for that. A true gem In the Great Text Department. - Grade In Class:A

Opinion: 1306 - TAKE DR PAINE, her teaching is fun and engaging and she is a very straight forward prof. There are weekly group quizzes on friday and codon learning modules before class, but that is it for assignments. Her test questions are very similar to the student created questions, if you pay attention and study, you will do well in this class. - Grade In Class:A
