Reviews of professor Jaclyn Moloney

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
This class was easy money. Maloney has three exams and the final is not cumulative. The lectures are simple and engaging with her youtube videos in between. Her exams were also open note. Really sweet professor and great choice for social science.

You shouldn't get anything less than an A- in this class. Don't worry about knowing everything, just know which chapter that subject is covered in.

Psych 202 is one of the easiest classes you'll take. No one goes to lectures and the ones who do don't pay attention. She clearly doesn't care about the class and would rather be somewhere else, so don't expect to learn much or be engaged. At least it's a free A.

Exams are all open notes and open books. Participation is not mandatory but it is sad when no one answers her questions and she just waits. If you need easy credits this is the class for you.

As everyone else has said- a grade booster and an easy A. If you took psych in high school this is an absolute breeze. I found the material interesting, but that's because I'm a psych major. I found that I got more out of reading the textbook (free online) than listening to class lectures. Attendance is optional and everything is open note.

Professor Moloney has designed this class for students to succeed. Open note exams, notes on powerpoint slides, extra credit, curves, everything. I didn't really enjoy her lectures, but that's not to say she didn't teach them well. Psychology is a subject I'll never like, but she got me through with a good grade. I would recommend her for Psych 202

This course was the second easiest course I've taken (only behind Archaeology). However, it was also perhaps the least engaging. All factors included, I believe this is the definition of mediocracy at W&M, which is probably a good thing overall.

Lectures aren't mandatory, and the exams are all fair and easy to do well on if you use the slides. Professor Maloney provides lots of extra credit and extra practice prior to exams.

If you need 3 credits for some reason, please take PSYC202. I went to one class the whole semester. Exams are all open-note and online. Just use the slides that she gives you, find an online copy of the textbook, and you are set. Papers are super easy as well, just follow the clear directions she gives you.

Easiest class I have taken yet, Test are open notes. Remember to use the textbook in addition to slides and you'll be fine. I did not attend any of the classes after the first day

Prof Moloney is a great professor and this class was super easy. The content was super applicable to daily life, which made it more interesting. All of the assignments were easy and given with plenty of time to complete them. Overall, it's hard to not get an A in this class.
