Reviews of professor Nicole Depowski

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. D is a respectable professor. They make you work very hard for your grade, but give you lots of help if you need it. They explain topics in depth in class and have great lectures. They expect lots of participation and you MUST READ THE BOOK to pass.

Dr. D is a very nice person and knows psychology well. Unfortunately, they talk for 1 hour and 50 minutes straight and just knowledge dumps you. The class has so much information that is presented in a way that it is not entertaining. The presentations are boring to look at and you are just talked out for 1 hour and 50 minutes.

I enjoyed Dr. D but know many friends that struggled in her class. She loves it when you do your assignments off of the rubric. You definitely need to take notes during her lectures and study. She offered extra credit that raised my grade. If you don't so so well in her class it is because people didn't try and expected a good grade for their work.

Dr. D was a solid professor. You definitely need to take notes and pay attention to lectures and read the book, but if you do these things, you shouldn't have many problems. For exams, be sure to review ALL CHAPTER MATERIAL, because even though she gives you a study guide, she makes it clear there will be other things on it.

Shes ok. She 100% is passionate about psych and knows a ton of information about what she teaches. She does expect you to be at her graduate school level of learning. Weekly reading assignments which were not helpful, and exams that were both multiple choice and free response. 2 group projects. Grading was not accurate compared to other students.

I love Dr. Depowski! Their lectures have many engaging videos and memes that help connect information in a retainable form. There is a lot of work, but expectations are clearly laid out and they always give time at the beginning of class to go over any questions about assignments. If you are attentive and put in the effort, youll be fine!
