Reviews of professor Sarah Allen

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
All she does is stand there and talk in a monotone voice. Her tests consist of hard questions that are never in the slides, so you have to google them or read every single detail of your textbook. She could at least make the class a little more interesting and actually engage with her students instead of acting they are a burden.

This is not the teacher switch a teacher if you can!!! Test are on little details in the textbook PPT has 80-90 slides. Expensive books and iclicker. So it's your choice...

I would NOT take her again. Idk if the textbook is super imp, I didn't use it. Doesn't post lecture slides ahead of time; very difficult to take all notes in class. Tests are fill-in-the-blank and multiple-choice. Makes attendance mandatory but a waste of time. Also had her for lab and her grading was harsher compared to Cornell's.

Acted as if this was the only class that you take and wanted you to study for three hours a night gives you an insane amount of info to study for one quiz

I had her for Bio as well. The students giving bad reviews were literally watching videos in class instead of paying attention. Her study guides are super helpful but very long. Her slides do miss some info that you have to get from the textbook. Her quizzes are huge, but nothing on them cannot be found from the study guide. Participate for bonus!

Dr. Allen is the worst prof I have ever had if I could give her a zero I would. Her exams make no sense, she doesn't have any important slides and I don't know where she gets her questions from but they are not from the textbook or lecture. She is rude, doesn't help her students and doesn't care if you struggle. Worst prof ever.

I thought she was a great professor, and she actually cared about her students. I barely tried and always completed studying and assignments at the last minute. I never paid any attention in class either and still got a good grade.

Dr. Allen was a little shy and quiet spoken, but she always tried her best to make sure you understood everything.  If you don't ask any questions you won't always understand.  Don't be afraid of looking stupid because she won't make you feel stupid.

Do not take this class. Hardest general science course ever, 10+ page study guides which is just every single thing on slides or what was talked about in class. Students expected to know over 300 slides worth of info for exams. Insanely high expectations set for this class for no reason. Only good part is you get points from more than just exams

Had her for Plant Taxonomy. Very cool class with lots of interesting information, but it's a lot to learn and process. Make sure you review the material often and you'll be okay!
