Reviews of professor Amelia McNamara

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
She is so incredibly lazy. Throughout the semester, she did not grade ANYTHING. We would come to class and she wasn't prepared with notes so she told us class was over. ChatGPT taught me more than she did. Nice person, terrible teacher. If you take her, do not go to class, and expect to teach yourself everything.

I really liked Dr. M. Yes, she is a tough grader, especially in exams, but there were test corrections for half credit back. She has a strict late policy, but if things come up, she is very lenient on due dates. She will move the due dates for the whole class if you ask. For the final project, we had almost 2 months to do which made it reasonable.

I took Professor McNamara for STATS 220 lab and she gave really good feedback and helped a lot. She is hard to reach over email though and takes a long time to respond. She is very helpful and her prelab videos are easy to follow.

This class is one of the most pointless classes I have ever taken. She LOVES to hear herself talk. I really hope that she takes feedback into account with this class. It was twice a week for an hour and 40 minutes. I would go sit there while she talked about nothing and then leave. There is rarely any homework and I learned next to nothing.

I loved Dr. McNamara's class and thought she was a great professor. She had lecture videos online and used class time for questions and examples. Dr. McNamara always had ample office hours to choose from (I usually attended for homework help). She is caring teacher and wants to make sure you understand the material. One of the best professors!
