Do yourself a favor and just...don't. She's nice and super understanding, which is why I am even giving it 2 stars. But, I just cannot get over the grading and the way this class seriously disrupted my peace in ALL senses of the word. There are stressful classes and then there's this. If you need to take this class for a major, take this as a last resort (literally look everywhere for fulfillment before taking this), if it's for an elective, run. Literally ruined my GPA smh

She's alright. Her tests are really hard and super complex that sometimes you don't even know how to answer. Even if you do somehow find an answer, it's wrong. She decided to curve our grades after the first test because I'm assuming everyone did really terribly, which showed it was her questions that were off, not our knowledge of the contents. In one of the papers she assigned, not one person got 100...I think the highest grade was a 90. All this to say, she's whatever. Only take it if you absolutely have to. I thought the reviews were being extra when I first saw it but they weren't lying.

If you want to learn about early Christian history, read a book, do not take this class. I thought this class would be interesting and fun but instead, it has made me never want to take another history class again in my life. When the class started on the first day of the semester there were at least 30 kids, by the end of the class I don't, there was 10. This class was so disorganized that we had gone over the same stuff for weeks and the schedule was so messed up by the time the class was done. Her thoughts were never organized and consisted of an unfathomable amount of "ums" making the lecture extremely hard to comprehend and made me think personally that she doesn't have a clue on what she is talking about. In the final exam, you're expected to write a four-page essay on the spot (no biggie usually) however she wanted exact sourcing from reading materials on where that information was found. She gave us the essay question beforehand, however, being that we had a lot of reading material we had to do, it is hard to remember specific sources authors and dates. I had never had to do this in my schooling career. If I were a history major, maybe this would be okay but as an elective that allows every major to take, I am baffled at how we had to do that. She is a nice person, and the handful of times I've gone to get extra help have been helpful, however, that doesn't comprehend for the amount of work that has to be put into a class, let alone an elective.
