Reviews of professor Megan Ames

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Would recommend! It was my easiest class all semester, and I was dreading it, expecting the worst. Made the concepts extremely clear. Textbook was optional, I bought it and I am glad I did, as it just reinforced what she said and helped me to remember it all.

Lengthy assignments and difficult to get good grades.

Megan was truly such a dream as a prof. She made concepts clear and understandable, and she went above and beyond when it came to help students. Everything was returned in a timely manner. REALLY glad I took stats with her because I wouldn't have done as well with another prof.

Hard exams. Studied for hours and still came out with below than average grades. I am a minor in psychology and usually get above 80; would be surprised if I got above a 70. Do not reccomend.

She's awesome and really breaks everything down into easy to understand examples. If you show up to class and participate in the discussions, you'll do fine. Her lectures are great! She's also very accessible outside of class and supportive if you have questions. Overall amazing prof! One of the best at UVIC!

Professor Ames is a very kind professor who cares about her students and the material. Her passion for the material is clear in her lectures and the effort she puts in to it for her students. The requirements are presented clearly and with different ways of engagement, the class is easy because of how amazing, accessible, and accommodating she is.

Pretty dull lectures and exam heavy. A lot of questions were super specific based on the textbook and not always clear what the question was looking for. Dr. Ames is accessible outside of class and seems nice enough, but takes ages to grade things.

Content aren't ridiculously difficult but the textbook readings are very long and boring. Tests are very textbook heavy/specific, she's not very clear with what she's looking for. The professor herself is pretty nice and caring, but her lectures are sooooo dull and monotone.
