Reviews of professor Maria Santos

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
This should have been an exciting subject, but oh boy. This professor is the worst. She doesn't explain things, ignores students, and seems like she doesn't care to be teaching. As a student, she made me feel like a burden. HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU STAY AWAY!

Be prepared to teach yourself!! Prof. Santos is a new professor and it shows. Lectures she will LITERALLY read from the powerpoint which you can do yourself from the comfort of your own home. Exams are difficult because all her answer choice are basically the same. She does not come prepared to class to teach, get the book and teach yourself

She provides powerpoints for each chapter and then just records herself going over the powerpoints as "lecture", very repetitive. Just read the chapters and powerpoints and you'll be fine.

Took this course over the summer and it was a very manageable workload. Your grade consists of discussion posts, short chapter quizzes, 3 exams, and 2 research papers. The material is very interesting, the quizzes/exams are tricky because the questions require you to apply the material in real world situations.

She gives lots of extra credit opportunities. Lectures do not cover everything you need to know to pass the 3 exams. Read before class it helps! Attendance is crucial she gives quizzes and group activities but if you show up that's easy points. I liked this professor shes down to earth, open to class discussions, &willing to answer any questions.

Taking Dr. Santos right now, she's really nice and seems approachable. However, her lectures can be heavy so make sure you read before class. Especially since she gives pop quizzes! (worth 20points total of 7 drops the 2 lowest) 3 exams and the final is optional. Also, 1 paper. Gives 6point extra credit. Grade is mostly based on exams/quizzes.

Great class with Dr. Santos. Lectures are funny and very informative. Do the reading and listen to the lectures and you will do fine.

Dr. Santos is amazing! Exams are essay format, but she's a fair grader. I loved that the concept was not to learn terminology, but of how to apply it in real life. She responded to every email within 24hrs or less, I definitely recommend her.

Don't expect an easy A if you take her abnormally psychology class because you will be overloaded with information while she is speaking monotone. Expect pop quizzes and one paper. Her exams were difficult because some of the questions are vague and have multiple correct answers.

I took a summer online course with Dr. Santos. Didn't use the textbook much at all. Her powerpoints are very long, 98% of quiz material comes from there. The online course was only powerpoints. Discussion Board post each week, question or response, quizzes, 3 tests. She added an optional cumulative final given to drop lowest test score. Not bad.
