Reviews of professor Cynthia Gottshall

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Horrible professor on many levels. I've never felt the need to rate a professor in my 3 years at Mercer University until I took Professor Gottshall's course. She has no clue what's going on. Her tests are multiple choice but not on what you went over in lecture. I left her class knowing nothing. I studied more for her class than my calculus class.

As long as you study for the tests you should be fine. Maybe even go in for office hours once a month, before a test and shell review the entire study guide with you. Easy B+ and fair A!

Overall a great professor/person. She is very helpful. As long as you show you care, she is willing to work with you and help you prepare the best you can. Tests are not easy by any means, so it's very important you do well on the quizzes and other small assignments. Would definitely take a class with her again. Very knowledgeable on the material.

Dr. Gottshall is the most boring professor it has ever been my displeasure to take in all my years of learning. Im not sure if shes just lazy or really doesnt want to do her job because we do all the work. We teach other about the movies. We wrote the questions for the midterm. We teach each other about the readings. Taking her class is a waste.

The class itself was not difficult, but she was difficult. The only good part about the class was the movies we got to watch, but she would give pop quizzes as if she wanted to see you fail. She gives questions on the test that were not mentioned in the readings nor in the lectures. She will also chastize the class if not enough people participate.

I left every class not knowing what just happened because there is no structure whatsoever. The test material comes out of the air because we never talked about it in class. It took everything in me to make an A because I never knew what to study. All the writing assignments are easy 100 as long as you do it, but the tests are torture. Never again
