Reviews of professor Karen Ballenger

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Ballenger is by far one of the best profs I have ever had. She is absolutely hilarious and incredibly down to Earth and genuine. She has done an awesome job developing the skills labs and really wants you to be successful. I really wish I was going to have another class with her, she is a real gem.

A lot of times we did not get the rubric for our check-off until the day before so we were panicking the whole time up until then and were not sure what to practice. I wish we could have learned the check-off skill from the professor we were going to be checked-off with. The exams were easy enough, however.

Mrs. Ballenger completely redid skills labs and it is 100% better. Checkoffs now focus on the skill and not hitting every checklist bullet. Her exams though are the worst. So insanely hard. READ THE BOOK 100x. Not just multiple choice so its harder than what we are used to. She makes the class fun by cracking jokes and being 100% real with students
