Reviews of professor Clara Scarry

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
She's a great professor but she tends to get off track a lot. Every class time, she would start off with a lecture and divert to an off-topic subject. She doesn't grade harshly but she does take a long time to grade. She's very flexible and gives students make-up time for late work.

She assigns 1-2 hour lecture videos weekly, and then u have to take a quiz and an assignment which is extra 3-4 hour if ur trying to get a perfect grade bc everything is based off on her lecture. No-redos if u mess up on assignments. This is a gen ed class but is way harder and longer than my pre-reqs and higher division courses as a science major.

Dr. Scarry is really nice and is fun to talk to! This class was really interesting and a great option to get a GE class out of the way. She doesn't really stress about memorization just if you understand concepts. Definitely recommend her class!

Dr. Scarry's class was great! Easy and clear format, plus she was always available if I had questions. Definitely recommend her class!!

Not recommending her if you lack prior knowledge of anthropology/Primates. She expects you to be familiar with the subject, particularly the study of primates. The topics can be quite confusing. It's not that she's a bad professor, but if you don't know anything about primate, you may find the course challenging. A lot of reading in this.

Extremely hard for a GE class.

Super cool class especially for non-anthropology majors. Dr. Scarry was really nice and always had clear instructions. Definitely recommend!

I took this prof bc of her high reviews. IDK if she changed the format of her class but it is HARD for a GE class. Damn near have to be perfect to get an A. Long lecture videos and tricky exams. Take this class if you have free time and actually wanting to learn. Don't take this class if youre looking for an easy A or a class to breeze through.

This class was completely online. Lectures were short and easy to understand. Structure is the same every week, with readings assigned, a graded activity, and a quiz. The only difficult thing about this class would be that  there is a lot of reading. Prof. Scarry is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about this subject. She's a clear grader.

Dr. Scarry is one of the best professors I have had at Sac State. I had her Fall 2020 when we first went fully online. She made it such a comfortable environment and brought some light to the craziness of the world. Her instructions are straight forward and she makes you SUPER excited about Non-human primates. 100/10 recommend taking her course! :)

This is a GE class but very difficult. The way she setups the assignment is hard unless You are an anthropology major. Not recommended for GE
