Reviews of professor Sarah Malmquist

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Professor Malmquist teaches well when she does teach in class. 
The primary issue with this class is the flipped format; study guides are due each week before lecture, and are not given feedback.
This means that students must teach themselves material and are NOT TOLD that something was incorrect on a study guide, so theyre left clueless for exams.

Dr. M is a very nice and caring person. However, the class formatting is so bad. I've never done this much busy work for a single class....ever. There's so much reading/homework outside of class and you wonder what exactly is being tested on. The exams can be difficult, oddly specific at times. If you want an easy class, avoid this one.

You'll be fine if you take physiology with Sarah. She knows her stuff and is a fair grader, but there's just a lot of stuff in the course. There's tons of activities and study guides and homework and it takes a long time to get used to it. I wish the class just had fewer, larger activities. The tests are a little too specific for most people.

It is obvious that Dr. M cares about her students. However she has high expectations for what the course is. You're expected to complete several hours of pre-lecture material on top of hw & group work. Group work is more like busy work considering the amount of sources you need. While the class is not hard, it is demanding and time consuming.

I'm really not sure why there are negative reviews. Dr. M is so caring and recognizes that we have lives outside of class. The material was very interesting and I didn't find the exams super difficult as long as you put some work in. She is very fair about removing ambiguous questions. I definitely recommend this class and Dr. Malmquist!

I am 2 days into class and I can already tell this is going to be the biggest waste of my time ever. There is no organization to this class what so ever. In class time is a hot mess and there is way too much homework that adds nothing to your learning. I cannot think of one thing I will walk away from this class from except depression.

I've just started this class, and I can tell, this semester is going to be one hell of a ride. The class has so much work it's not even a joke anymore. Weekly study guides and problem sets that are each 5-7 pages long. Only good thing is that exams are online.

This class wasn't too difficult content wise but the amount of the work this class has is worth more than 3 credits. You essentially teach yourself everything outside of class with SGs that take 4ever to do. Lectures aren't lectures, they're discussions. Have a semester long project that I really didn't enjoy. Dr. M is an extremely caring person.
