From other people I've spoken to, the online format is so so much easier than the in-person format with any of the other 202 profs. An average week in this class consists of going over the material, 2 discussion posts, one quiz, and one journal. No exams, just a final project.","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/2309285","quality_rating":5.0,"difficulty_rating":1.0},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:49:02.830100+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTQwMjg2Mjk3","source_instructor_id":"rmp:2309285","instructor_name":"Chelsea Andrews","course_label":"PSYCH202","course_id":"PSYCH 202","course_uid":"course_c6cb82c0dae5185c7cec8d65","review_date":"2024-12-14 00:30:31 +0000 UTC","comment":"Dr. Andrews was such a great professor.
