Reviews of professor Sonia Seeman

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
4*1000 words papers + 2000 words midterm paper, and 4000 words final paper. The TAs said even they could hardly understand the rubric provided by the professor. The teacher gave about 10 additional assignments than she originally stated in the syllabus and claimed these were extra credits that no one knew any idea how much they were worth. Awesome!

I'll leave it at this: She doesn't teach this class anymore.

I love Dr. Seeman as a person as she is so caring and her lectures are really interesting. However, I have never taken a class with this much work in my entire life. Homeworks are super long and the minimum page count for "short" papers is 6 (double spaced). If you don't mind spending almost every week writing an essay, then this class is for you!

This class is impossible to get below an A, but a stupid amunt of work. I'm really good at producing decent quality work in short amounts of time (< 2 hrs per 1k word essay), and I still wouldn't reccomend this class. Honestly, the biggest problem is mandatory lectures that are super boring and a massive waste of time. At least she's a nice person?

She and I had a conversation about the topic for the paper in the beginning of a semester and she approved my topic. As semester goes, she drove my topic into her direction more without respecting my direction. She also wants students to quote and cite her paper very much. She acts like she is opened to anything but she is not.

Professor Seeman is a great professor, passionate lecturer, and tough grader. Don't take this class if music doesn't play a larger role in your life, then it will be uninteresting. Papers are long and difficult, just precisely follow the rubric. Seemen herself is passionate about the material and always willing to answer questions.
