Reviews of professor Meghan Altman

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Altman is a great psy 001 professor. She makes lectures super interesting and provides great powerpoints for notes. 10/10 recommend because of how amazing and interesting her lectures are. Very understanding and offers extra credit.

I loved this class and this professor. She is amazing. She made learning fun and she is so caring and understanding. Seriously, take her. Dont miss out. Shes amazing. She uses videos, doesnt give out hw. Literally goes over questions thats on mid terms in class. Show up and pay attention and youll have fun.

overall, altman was great in my experience. get ready to read the online textbook on ur own throughout the year. its a grade, its a lot but it really helps. GO TO LECTURE - might not pass if you dont. mini questions are graded each class for extra points. need to study for tests. a bit difficult but I personally loved it. she makes lecture fun.

She gives an insane amount of homework and before the mid terms, she gives an extra amount of homework. To top it off, she doesn't give us the lecture slides after class. After the class finishes, you have no source of notes, except the book. All in all, wouldn't recommend unless you want to cry before every mid term.

She's very sweet and uses very helpful lecture material. She also responds to emails VERY QUICKLY, so you're sure to get a response. Textbook was on TopHat, so no need top buy anything, but reading the textbook chapters was all of the homework, so there's quite a bit of reading.

Altman has been really great and understanding this semester with everything going on with COVID. She tried really hard to be accommodating, gave lots of extra credit, and she was super fair with grades and expectations.

By far the worst professor at UC Merced. Went MIA less than halfway through the summer semester and taught only through pre-recorded old lectures that were terrible. This is not a psychology class but rather an excuse for her to talk about her love of art. Seems to be a nice person but is less than helpful when you need help. Do not take.
