I was expecting to get an A so I am a little disappointed. I put a lot of effort into my papers and discussions. I thought the class/lecture was interesting, but def a little useless or intuitive. i didn't think the grading was fair for how easy the content was.

I also had her for 170 and that was awful, I ended with a B but I hated the class the whole time. However, for 479D I got an A-. I think her higher-level classes aren't as bad. But for all those GVPT170 reviews you have to remember that she doesn't grade those papers or your assignments in that class, the TAs do. So if you have an issue with your grade Rouse didn't do that, your TA. But she does create the exam, and that was awful and terribly hard, especially for a lower-level class. 479D was fine but there were a shit ton of readings, I kinda would cram and skim them a bunch just before writing the little papers and I did fine. I am also not too bad at school so idk if that had anything to do with it, but I never really paid attention in lectures and still got an A-. The exams in 479D weren't bad at all.

I understand that it was a 400-level class, but her expectations were far too high. She didn't teach anything. She would have us read about these research studies which requires you to have taken at least 2 statistics classes. Her grading is another story. She was very knowledgeable but in order to get any sort of real information from her you had to ask the questions. She speaks 500 words per second and barely gives you enough time to copy down any sort of notes or anything. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS UNLESS YOU TAKE IT PASS FAIL BECAUSE YOU WILL BE DISAPPOINTED WITH YOUR GRADE.
