Reviews of professor Lauren Arnold

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Had her for both Epi and PUBH4100. amazing teacher with the most knowledge from any professor I've had. Her passion for every lecture is evident so it's hard to finesse but with some studying and **paying attention** during class it's a very doable. her grade is also quite fair so I wouldn't sweat too much on it - just follow the rubric.

Love Dr. Arnold! Biological Basis is my favorite class I've taken at SLU. Exams for my semester were open note and relatively straightforward. She gives in-depth comments on all assignments submitted and she is just an awesome person overall. While this class was required for my major, I think everyone should take it.

Dr. Arnold, an expert in public health, teaches an engaging 8 am class with crucial participation points. Despite challenging paper exams due to AI changes, her passion makes lectures interesting. Diligent study pays off, turning you into a well-informed student.

I LOVE Dr. Arnold. She's be far the greatest public health professor at SLU and has actually swayed me to consider epi as a future career. She's so passionate and smart. You should know that you will have to go to class and actually study for the exams to do well, but i really really enjoyed her and going to class was not a chore at all.

I had her for both epi and bio basis and you can really tell how intelligent and how passionate she is about public health! She's super sweet and cares about her students. Her exams are application based which makes them a bit more difficult and different from the other public health classes, but the exams are open note, which definitely helps.

Nice person just a very tough grader. Exams are now closed book but you are allowed 1 piece of paper front and back to use on the exam. This makes it much harder. She is incredibly tough when grading group projects so make sure you have a good group

Of all the public health faculty at SLU, Dr. Arnold is probably the best. And that is a pretty high bar. She is exceptionally experienced and knowledgeable, and she puts a lot of effort into her classes. It is true that she is a tough grader, but not egregiously so. And she is always willing to help you if you need it.

She is a great teacher and is very passionate, but she grades egregiously hard on group projects, so make sure you have a good group. Even after a lot of proofreading, she might find areas to take off points. Her exams are extremely difficult as it is all application based, and they are sometimes intentionally difficult.
