Reviews of professor Claudia Gonzalez

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
You never know what to expect from Claudia's tests. She says whatever she teaches outside of lecture is not testable, but that's not true. Her tests were extremely hard, even though i put in hours of studying the tests don't reflect the info taught. Rather will take brief lecture notes and ask much more in depth questions

Despite giving difficult tests, I honestly enjoyed Claudia as a professor. She was always polite, open to questions, and used real-life examples to help us grasp different concepts. I had to work hard to do well, but in doing so, I learnt a lot more than I would've if the course had been " easier ".

This is my second class with Claudia. I am a 3.9 GPA student but I did very poorly in both. She seems to think psyc should be exclusive and if are struggling with a topic she blames you and doesn't really help. Her tests are stupid hard too, like the application of what is taught and if it isn't perfect you will barely get enough part marks to pass

You will want to attend every class possible as you'll learn better by being present. She doesn't stand with or against racism and other taboo topics but rather educates you on how extreme those beliefs/views can be and how they cause harm to others. 
This is a class where you challenge your internalized beliefs/bias.

Claudia sucks. She graded so tough on assignments, papers and tests. I had to try harder in a psych class than a science class, and still got a way lower letter grade. Never again will I take a course with her

I think people are giving inaccurate views of Claudia, and I am glad these reviews didn't scare me off. She is incredibly caring and her exams are very straightforward if you simply pay attention to lecture and study the chapter outlines she gives out. I had to cram material for both midterms and still got an A/A+. Effort goes a long way here

Do not take this class if you're in four other classes. Be thorough in your writing and prove you have read all chapters required, and have watched all lectures. She marks quite harshly, so get ready to study at least 7 hours a day. Do not take this class as a fifth class, take it when your semester is very flexible. She's kinda funny tho :)

Tests are really specific with fill the blanks that could have multiple answers. 
Snarky, unhelpful when students ask questions. 
Wrote on my paper 'next time write about something you know'. 
When doing course review, tried to tell us what to write by listing everything she thought she did well. 
Lectures are boring.
