Reviews of professor Nancy Carlisle

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Carlisle has been my least favorite professor I have ever had at Lehigh. Lectures are boring and are not helpful. She basically just reads her slides to the class and doesn't go in any depth. Her tests are also much harder than they need to be considering they consist of topics that we simply do not go over in class. Just don't take this class.

Dr. C is awesome! The exams are relatively easy if you study the lecture slides and skim the textbook. There are online reading checks after every textbook reading and four midterm exams. The final is optional, and it can replace a poor exam grade. You can tell Dr. C loves what she does, and I hope to have Dr. C again!

Professor Carlisle utilizes the textbook often on her exams, despite her lectures pertaining to other material. Many of the test questions are of material not learned and class and there are no curves given - as B- is seen as an acceptable grade in her opinion. I strongly recommend avoiding her and if you really want to take Psych-001, take DeBari.

Dr. Carlisle was very engaging, comical, and accessible. Pretty much all material on tests is covered in lecture. Attending office hours was helpful, and there is extra credit. Taking notes and memorization are recommended for doing well.
