Reviews of professor Sylvia Bennett

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I took this class as a hybrid course and 50% had to be in person; the other 50% online via zoom. She was very organized and had PowerPoints online as well before the lecture in person. She also provided extra credit which is always helpful!

She's very nice and wants you to succeed. Always available to email and host optional Zoom sessions if you need help. 3 exams without lockdown and 2 easy discussions so if you need an easy class, take this one. No textbook is required. Take her because her classes fill up super-fast.

Attendance is a grade. Her exams are significantly easier than all the other professors in ECO. She gives plenty of extra credit opportunities throughout the semester. I would recommend doing the HW before class because she likes participation. In the open-ended exam question have details she gives bonus points. Her lectures summarize the chapters.

Professor Bennett was amazing! I took her for Fall 2023, online synchronous, and the grading criteria was very clear. I got a B because I got a low grade in one exam, and did not take the final, but if I had taken it, I would've probably gotten an A. Lectures online, but you don't have to attend. 3 exams, 3 quizzes, and 1 project.

This online course consisted of weekly chapter quizzes, 3 discussions, 3 exams, and a Comprehensive Final. She allowed the final to be waived if your average of the 3 term exams are at least on 80%. Overall, a straightforward class to take and earn an easy A.
