Reviews of professor Monica Carney

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Carney is a caring professor, but she is a little awkward and her lectures can be pretty dry and monotone. Exams are definitely tougher than in class problems, but not unmanageable. Problems sets are due every week, but they're not long or too hard, especially if you go to her office hours you can basically get the answers.

Amazing professor! Difficult exams, but if you put in the effort and go to class you actually learn a lot of useful info and skills. Talking about my project in this class during my internship interview pretty much got me the job.

She was a decent professor but the examples used in class were very vague. Problem sets are graded with no corrections or explanation, she just takes off the points. It was clear this class wasnt her priority because things werent handed back often so you had no idea how you were doing most of the semester.

Professor Carney is easily the worst professor I have had at Holy Cross in my four years here. Her lectures put me to sleep every class, her exams and quizzes had material not covered in class, and she was extremely unhelpful during office hours. She wouldn't respond to students' emails half the time and didn't have office hours during finals.

I took Prof. Carney for both micro theory and gender economics. While her lectures could be dry, you could tell she really cared about the material (even in micro theory), and she was always willing to talk about problem sets and grades on material. Can be a little awkward but once you get to know her, she really is awesome.

The most dry professor I have ever had. Very nice woman. Seems very intelligent and understands the material, but is just a terrible speaker and is unable to make class interesting. I hope she gains more confidence when giving lectures because it would make the class a lot more interesting.

The class was not as difficult. Very clear grading system. Fair grader.

Loved Carney. Dont listen to the other reviews. She can be a little monotone, but i always understood everything when i went back to my notes. Totally recommend.
