PSYCH 202
Quality 5/5Difficulty 2/5
Dr. Addington is kind and very knowledgeable! She presents concepts in a straightforward but comprehensive way and then tests require you to be able to apply those concepts. If you put effort in to understanding concepts you will succeed, and Dr. A is there to support you.

PSYCH 202
Quality 4/5Difficulty 3/5
I actually quite enjoyed taking this class. The lectures can feel long, but they were super interesting. Each exam covers a lot of material, so make sure to give yourself enough time to study. As a professor I thought she explained things pretty well, and overall I didn't have any complaints.

PSYCH 202
Quality 2/5Difficulty 4/5
Only ever read straight off the slides with little to no further explanation. Tests were much more abstract and informational then the basic information you were given. Tests were weighted very heavy so very hard to grade up if you don't do well on one exam.
