Reviews of professor Maria Nagan

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
She is nice, but her exams are only 12 questions, each question is worth 10 points, and you only have 40 minutes for the exam which makes it so stressful and hard to maintain high grades in the course.

She is such a great professor! If you pay attention in lecture and do the homework, you're going to do good in the class. There's lots of TA's, and her office hours are good, too. She's very understanding and such a sweet and genuine person. I have so much respect for her.

Dr. Nagan is hands down one of my favorite professors. As long as you are actively paying attention, taking notes, and practicing questions (and doing the stupid ALEKS homework lol), you will do well in the course. Chemistry is not easy, but she tries to make it as simple as she can.

Dr. Nagan was an amazing Gen Chem professor. She made complex topics understandable with ease. Her passion for the field and education make her take an involved approach in her students success. Do the homeworkexam questions are modeled after it. Go to workshopyou wont feel alone in struggles or success.

 Dr. Nagan is very engaging and funny in lecture and she is always willing to explain stuff over again. She usually ends class early which is nice. I like her lecture slides because they are very concise and not overly long. Her exams are so hard and sometimes unfair to ppl who are not in bio, which is why i gave a 4 instead of 5.

She "doesn't believe in curving" and has tests that are only twelve questions long. The tests are also worth basically your entire grade. So, one test can literally break your grade. There is no wiggle room. Professor also belittles students. She won't even address what you say or will even laugh at you if she doesn't like your question.

Speaks too fast and creates hard exams.

Dr. Nagan is a sweet professor, and she's always willing to answer questions. However, this course is tough because there's a lot of work, including Mastering and Aleks, and it get's overwhelming. Also the tests can be unreasonably hard sometimes. Make sure you study!!

Dr. Nagan was an amazing professor! She explains things very well and cares for all her students. She is a tough cookie but in a respectable way. It's a difficult class, but as long as you pay attention and put in the work you should be good.

Dr. Nagan is really sweet and personable and is overall a great teacher. Her tests are harder than Dr. Amarante's but she goes over everything thoroughly in class. Do the hw, reading, and workshop and you'll do well. Plus she shows her pets to the class :)
