Kristin is a great lecturer and clearly cares about her students. That being said, the exams are quite difficult and tend to trip students up, and 100% scores are quite infrequent on exams. However, the lectures are very based on the textbook and the assignments throughout the semester are not terribly difficult.Rate My Professors ↗
She is a nice person and cares about the students, but the tests are absolutely atrocious and even with the page of notes sometimes they are hard because there are questions about one sentence in the textbook mentioned once. The project is easy but lots of work and there are 2 readings with 2 assignments every week. Too much work for an intro classRate My Professors ↗
This class was unnecessarily difficult. The chapters you have to read before class take an average 2 hours, and the lectures are basically the same exact information with video examples that she uses for the exams. The exams seem like they would be easy, but each multiple choice question is worth 4 points, so missing a few tanks your grade.Rate My Professors ↗
I really liked Kristin. Her class is a little challenging but it's not too bad if you attend lecture and read the textbook. You can tell Kristin really cares about her students and was always available to provide feedback and help.Rate My Professors ↗
There is no reason whatsoever to close practice exams on the day of exam. Tests meant to trick you up. Does she care about her students' grades?????Rate My Professors ↗
Kristin is truly a great person. She seems like she cares about every student. Lectures are not required for attendance info from them are on the exams. The exams are really difficult and it really isn't her fault. The class is curved to a 3.2 GPA because of the business school. There is a semester long project that isn't too difficult.Rate My Professors ↗

Past student reviews · Kristin Branch
Kristin Branch was praised as an enthusiastic lecturer who genuinely cared about students, though some found her fast pace and instructions confusing. Exams generally allowed notes but varied in difficulty, with some students finding them easy while others felt they tested obscure trivia rather than core material. Assignments were often tedious and required significant reading, despite her helpful availability.
