Reviews of professor Cynthia Talbot

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Dr. Talbot is a very good professor, the history course of the premodern world is very interesting, tests are in essay form, and both the professor and TA give good feedback. But reading, attending class, and paying attention to class and test preparation are very useful and important. Overall, very good professor.

Prof. Talbot is a terrible teacher. Graded one of my assignments without her laid out rubric and instead by how much she liked the paper. The tests and quizzes have no relation to what you learn in class and requires extra prep for tests. If you're looking for an easy A, this isn't it. Too many assignments . She was often unsure on her history info

Dr. Talbot is kind, intelligent, and she really cares about her students. She posts readings that will help you better understand, in-class review sessions before exams, extra office hours around exams, and she always helps out the best she can. Very fair. Great professor. I recommend.
