Reviews of professor Alexandra Paxton

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
NONONO. do NOT take this class. You could go to every single lecture, do every single assignment, do well on every single exam, I DID, and still receive a poor grade. She grades things as satisfactory or unsatisfactory, and if u get an US it is a 0. She is a VERY hard grader and will give u an US for the smallest thing. DROP BEFORE ITS TOO LATE.

Save yourself a lot of pain and take PSYC 1000 with any other professor. There's a quiz and a group project every single class, and the projects are graded harshly. If you get stuck with a bad group, you're screwed. The grade bundles are super confusing and make it difficult to get an A in the class. Unreasonable amount of work for a 1000-level.

Dr Alex is although very nice, she has a ridiculous grading policy. Everything is "satisfactory" or "unsatisfactory" which is basically pass or fail. Lectures are for group work, and all lecture material is done on your own which is very time consuming. If you fail one of the exams, you need to scramble to pass the retake. Way too much work.

This class was a joke. Each class there is barely a lecture, half the time the lecture does not even relate to any of the content discussed for the module. The grading system is ridiculous and she is a tough grader. It is difficult to get in touch with her. She does seem nice but the way this class is run is very confusing and hard.

Horrible grader. Specifications grading ruined my grade in this class. It is so hard to get an A because she is insanely strict with grading and specific with what exactly she's looking for on in class assignments. All in class assignments are groupwork and if your group is bad, be prepared to do all the work or fail.
