Reviews of professor Abby Gondek

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
A lot of assignments. I was planning on taking her for the summer term but its literally too much work to do in such a short amount of time. The first week of class we had 13 assignments due. The syllabus was 37 pages long, she requires you to attend online lectures and participate with your cameras on. Half of the class dropped out first day.

This was honest the worst class I've taken at FIU. Her syllabus is 70-page long and her assignment instructions are overwheming and messy. You don't interact with her as everything is graded by AI. This was not a class to learn, just to complete extravagant and redudant assignments. If you are in school to learn, do not waste your time.

please whatever you do don't sign up for this class with this professor. The work load I have received is absolutely insane, I come from being in Cambridge schools all my life taking AP and DE courses and, lets just say that this class is nothing I have ever experienced before. The instructions for assignments are long and unclear.

Very messy structure and instructions , your grade depends on other students as well as hers , the work load is ridiculous. I took in the summer so it was tight but the deadlines were still crazy . The saving grace is you can get a lot of extra credit and she drops lowest scores.

She was disorganized and gave a lot of unnecessary work. She also likes to accuse her students of using AI and plagiarizing. Even though I was in a graduate level class, if it sounded too advanced it was seen as suspicious.

She was amazing if I could taker for all my classes I would. She was so easy the information needed for the test was right in the lectures, no tough questions. She gave so much extra credit opportunities I ended with higher than 100 percentage. Take her!

This professor is extremely disorganized, her assignments are impossible to understand, and her discussion posts end up being almost 1k words. There is so much extra buzz on her canvas and its just not worth it. Would not take this class again it gave me gray hairs.

I dropped this class because of the disorganization. It is designed terribly; everything is VERY confusing and a disorganized mess. Besides Canvas, the professor uses Perusall & Kritik for lectures, readings & coursework. She can see how long you were on Perusall for & will take away points if it wasn't long enough. Way too hard for an elective.

Confusing assignments, and unclear instructions. Would not recommend especially if you are looking for an elective. However, she's a relatively easy grader.
