Reviews of professor Ellen McCarthy

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Extremely unorganized and gets mad if you ask questions to clarify the instructions for an assignment. You will learn absolutely nothing in this class. Very stressful and upsetting because this is an important class for the major. Also an extremely tough grader and theres no logic in the way she grades. An actual nightmare.

Professor is a tough but fair grader. She is Willing to meet with you and review difficulties. If your keep up with the readings and assignments youll do fine.

Professor McCarthy was very nice although her class was treated like it was our only priority. There was an insane amount of assignments and it was very hard to keep up.

She is a very nice professor. She does give a lot of homework and papers and can be a tough grader. She is very good at lectures and making sure everyone understands. She is caring and understanding when anything is wrong. I would take her again.

Horrible professor. Dont take her, youll be doing yourself a favor. She loads you with work toward the end of the semester meanwhile you have other classes. She doesnt care. Very disorganized. She changed the syllabus 3 times in the begging of the semester and not for the benefit of the students. She has a really poor attitude & extremely rude

I'm not sure why Professor McCarthy has so many negative reviews. I really liked having her as a professor so much that I am taking another one of her classes. She is not an easy grader but is willing to work with you if you put in the effort as well. She is very knowledgeable and I thought she was a good professor.

Worst professor I've ever had. Extremely unreasonable and unorganized, has no sympathy for students, or an understanding of the fact that we have OTHER work to complete. Extremely hard grader, has something to say about e v e r y t h i n g

She is new so she is still learning the ropes. Very understanding and very helpful. Midterm was very difficult and contained a lot of information.

Terrible professor Ive ever had at st. Joes. Shes not reasonable and gives you a ridiculous amount of work. Where its very overwhelming she doesnt understand that you have other classes. Shes very nasty and if you ask a question on an assignment just to clarify, shell make it known that youve annoyed her. Shes also very disorganized.

She is a nice lady and it is her first time teaching at st. Joes. But she was a very hard grader and her lectures are not good as well. This was an important class for my major and I feel like I got nothing out of it which is terrible. Midterm and Final were hard bc she taught us nothing on it which really sucks. Take someone else for good grades.
