Reviews of professor Angelica Camacho

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Weekly attendance questions and reading questions. 2 Midterms based on readings and lecture. Final exam/project optional to replace one midterm grade. Some extra credit assignments given. She really knows her stuff. Records lectures.

She is a very tough grader and expects too much from students. We were assigned a lot of readings that were super long! She doesn't go over all the readings in class. Her lectures were not organized and it was difficult to take notes as she kept going back and forth from topics. I believe she means well, but is unexperienced which made it tougher..

This class had 5 articles/essays to read per week. The 500 word essays were graded very harshly. The professor degraded the class as a whole on our mediocre essays. The essay did not have clear requirements. The professor was often late. We were forced to see a tutor for our essays, if we didnt comply a letter grade was stripped from your grade.

She is a very tough grader, and even a bit intimidating to approach. The class is lecture heavy, and requires a lot of reading which can be hard to keep up with. The 500 word essay is graded very harshly and she doesn't make any exceptions for students whats so ever. I wouldn't recommend taking her for unless you absolutely have no other choice...

One of the harder classes I took at SFSU. But so worth it. She cares about academic integrity, I had to work for my A- including extra credit. Camacho gets a bad rep b/c she actually wants students to improve at writing. But she's one of the best faculty members SFSU has in my opinion. Would retake again 10/10. Also she's funny lol.
