Reviews of professor Beverly Carlson-Landy

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I was terrified to take her class after reading reviews on here, but she was very friendly. Her course was extremely unorganized & confusing, but I managed to complete everything on time the whole semester. You have a final paper, reflection, exam, AND project. Only passed because she gave over 100 points of EC my term...I think for her benefit.

Worst professor so far. I am an engineering major and took this as an elective because I was genuinely intrigued. I should have heeded the warnings provided by others. This professor is unreasonable with the amount of points they deduct for the simplest of mistakes. Humans make mistakes and for her to demand perfection is ridiculous.

I failed almost every single quiz even though I was taking notes alongside her provided study guide. I honestly don't know how people got an A unless they just test well. She will ask about 1 specific author when there are more than 20 in each chpt and u read about 3 chpts per week. For a low level course, way too strict and I did not learn

It's an easy class if you turn everything in on time, However, grading rubric is absolutely stupid and I was given basically negligible points on multiple assignments because I used "direct quotes" even though the paper asks to use references and cite your sources. It's a counterintuitive rubric I recommend choosing another professor.

Dr. C-L is very clear in her rubrics on her grading criteria. If you take a moment to review the syllabus, and review your rubrics to make sure your paper meets the criteria before submitting, it is not hard to be successful. She offers extra credit opportunities, and is accessible for contact if needed.
