There were constant quizzes, but as long as you were in class/got a hold of the notes from that lesson, you'll be fine. If you need help, GO TO HER OFFICE HOURS! I did not take advantage of it, but others have and say that it is helpful!

I had Thuy for a Gen Ed and loved the class. Quizzes are open note, tests are really hard if you don't study, but she drops the lowest test grade at the end of the semester. She is pretty good about relating a scenario to the content learned to make sure to write them in your notes because they help. Also very funny and swears.

awesome professor, but you need to put the effort in to do well. karafa is really funny and really caring. extra credit opportunities. write down the examples she gives in class!! study old tests for final. if you skip you're screwed, she gives us so many notes each class period. homework is really easy if you have the notes and access to google.

This was one of my favorite classes. I took her for Foundations of Psychology Honors. She is much nicer to her honors class when it comes to workload. We do not get as many as test or quizzes. She is hilarious and swears a lot! Somedays the class will make sense and the next day you will be lost the entire time. Ask questions!

The lectures were interesting and funny, and the course is pretty straightforward with a lot of easy grading since she drops the lowest scores out of 6 exams. Exams may be slightly difficult if you don't study. She's a nice person.

Professor Karafa is a true gem. Her lectures are easy to follow and she explains psychological concepts very well. Even though she is an "easy" professor, her class is still challenging and in order to pass, you need to put forth a solid effort. Did not open the textbook once, but it made a good TV stand.

She was my favorite professor. She is a blast in class and very good at explaining some of the more complex parts of psychology for those who don't like all the science!

I don't know why but I did not like psy at all. I thought the tests were extremely hard if you didn't study 24/7. There is a curve on tests, dropped 2 lowest quiz grads, and drop the lowest test, so that helps. Overall the class was really interesting but very challenging. Lectures were hard to follow in person.
