Reviews of professor Sarah Schwartz

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Lovely professor, take if you can. Very nice and lectures are quite interesting. The class is easy if you have a history background. Specifically with her, there is not that many specific dates/locations to master, rather facts and more general terms. Map Quizzes are very easy as you can "use your resources," and the tests are not bad either.

She gave few assignments and tests that covered months of lectures. She gave extra credit though.

The class consists of lectures. Every week there is a map quiz to do and occasionally News Quizzes. There are three exams that are closed notes, and then the final is open notes. Go to class to take good notes, and study well and you will do great on exams. If you can memorize things then you will get an A.

The class is lecture heavy, while its all based in the textbook there is some information she will only go over in class. The lectures themselves are easy to digest and the information isn't particularly hard to understand. Dr. Schwartz is great at answering questions and helping students, the grading policy is pretty set in stone though.

Listen, Sarah is passionate about what she teaches, but class time is not used well.  I don't learn the math from her.  Homework takes HOURS! She tries to help but no examples of math problems are shown in class, she is just talking.  So you don't learn how to do it.  Thank heavens for the TA or I would have failed.

I took GEOG 30533 with Dr. Schwartz and it went great! The course is made up of a few in class discussions, quizzes, and 3 exams, and a research paper throughout the semester. All heavily based on the lecture material and a few supplemental readings Dr. Schwartz help students however she can and is very supportive. Great class and professor.

I had psych stats with her and getting a good grade is not too difficult and she is very understanding. However, homework took hours and we didn't learn much in class. Mostly taught myself from the textbook. She didn't have any tests which was nice.
