Great experience with Dr. Gomes.

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Gomes, is very caring and willing to help during office hours but her class is very dry and boring. A lot of the material for the exam is based off of the powerpoints but there are over 40 slides per powerpoint. I would not advise anyone to take her course. The course is hard for an elective. She grades extremely harsh.

Dr. Gomes expects a lot of her students, but the class isn't difficult to do well in, provided that you stay on top of your assignments and go to class (attendance and participation are grades) and seek feedback early in the semester. Only complaint is that she doesn't post grades until the end. Tests aren't hard and they're 100% powerpoint based

This class was challenging at times, but one of the best professors that I ever had. She cares about her students and just wants us to work hard as college students. I learned so much from this class, just because of her love for learning and students. Take advantage of office hours and work hard and you will receive the grade you want.

Very bland lectures, but the material on the tests come straight from slides. Attendance checks are given almost every class. She has very specific grading criteria, and if it's not met to a T she deducts more points than necessary. The discussion boards make up a great portion of final grade so be cautious of missing those.
