Reviews of professor Patricia Cates

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
I liked Cates as a person but not as a teacher Projects were either graded a 0 or 100 lectures did not help with homework I learned more from the tutors exams are long & timed with not enough time to complete them the only thing I liked about her was that she offered alot of extra credit her class will make you want to cry

Choose a different professor if you can. Cates is a nice person, but an awful teacher. Ton of homework and you'd think 20 questions isn't bad until there's 4-7 parts in each question. She knows her grading system is ridiculous & terrible because she gives multiple chances for extra credit. Truly do not recommend if you're trying to keep a good GPA.

 Taking this class with her will drain you, her grading does not make sense especially with the projects where it is either a 100 or a 0 none in between. Her lectures are not helpful, she picks what she wants to talk about in the chapter but not the overall chapter. Go to tutoring if you are struggling they are very helpful.
