Reviews of professor Bekka Brodie

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I had her as my honors instructor, not even a real structural class. She's just very rude and I felt ignored most classes. She seemed to make digs at me specifically and never passed a chance to make me feel lesser. She would ask for opinions but didn't really want to hear any that varied from her own.

Dr. Brodie is a bit of a mixed bag in my view. I honestly thought her tests were reasonable and matched what was covered in lecture. On the other hand, her PowerPoints were rather dense and she often transitioned slides before a human being could reasonably copy down their contents. Accessible outside of class, but also needlessly adamant at times

While she makes sure you know the material she constantly belittles and made the students and myself feel stupid. When classes did badly on an exam overall instead of helping students do better she would blame the students for not studying enough even though everyone was struggling. Do not take her BIOS class if you can help it.

Class averages were constantly C's and D's and she did nothing to help her students. She would tell us exams were easy when they werent. Exams are online with 18 multiple choice and 2 extended response. She grades the extended response very hard and these count for 40% of the exam. She doesnt help and wont answer questions in class. DO NOT TAKE

The class that I took with her, she blatantly told us that she wasn't sure what our class was supposed to be about and how it's supposed to work. We spent the first 3 weeks listening to her brainstorming what our project was going to be and how the class would be structured. Avoid this professor at all costs, unless you like a LOT of individuality.

I despise Dr. Brodie. She is too arrogant. Her tests also became more of a reading comprehension exam, rather than an exam over the topics. I have perfect A's in my other bio classes, but this one makes me hate myself every single day. The material would be fun if it were not for Dr. Brodie.

She is rude and always makes things harder than what suppose to be. Very hard exams. She is not helpful at all to pass this class.

Lectures were okay. Tests were written and graded fairly. Homework load was okay. The main thing I disliked was how she spoke to students, often times seeming annoyed when students would ask her questions, not always but more than is acceptable.

Wasn't that bad. Just a class you really have to put a lot of time in. TopHats every class that counts toward the grade so you better come to the class. The study guide was 18 pages. Reads from powerpoint notes sometimes. Doesn't tolerate late work.
