Really easy. Boring but tests are open-book. If you read the chapters, you'll know where to look in the book for the answers. Plus 20pt extra credit (if you really even need it)
She's great, and also one of the nicest teachers out there. Tests are so easy even though we don't have open book tests this semester! TAKE HER!
She is wounderful and helpful. She is very nice.
Very cool and very expressive! She helps you in any way you can as long as you put your part of the deal in. TAKE HER TAKE HER TAKE HER if you want an easy A!
hmm..very helpful and very nice. There is really no special way to study for this. The only method is to follow her study guide, read the topics on it, while take few notes in class, and you'll be all set. Good luck :)
Super nice, entertaining and helpful.
really nice teacher~best teacher i've ever meet~ her class is interesting, tests are easy~ just pay attention in class and surely u'll hv no problem~
She teaches good. you have the chance of free conversation in her class.You can ask her and she will answer everything freindly.You also can attend a lot of her suggested seminars to get extra credit.Her tests are multiple choice.
I really liked her class when I took her 2 years ago and I got an A. My boyfriend took her about a year ago, and he was having trouble with the tests and she told him that "not all people are meant to go to college... WHAT KIND OF TEACHERS SAYS THA
nice teacher, clear lecture, need to read book to do well on test. friendly,helpful. drop 1 test, some extra credits. I got an A in her class without taking the Final.haha, cause I am a 4.0 nut.
she is the bomb! very helpful! superior!
SHE IS ONE HELL OF AN ACTRESS! That's all I've got to say. She's easy straight forward and very very nice. She's a teacher that will make you laugh =P (by acting out all the disorders and such). I had an extremely good time in her class. GOt an A =P
She is the best out there. she is so wonderful to her class and so entertaining. if you read the book and the notes, you will get an A in her class. You will absolutely enjoy her. She is best psychology professor.
Abby is such a nice teacher, and gives you an easy A. good class!
EASY EASY EASY EASY TEACHER!!! i NEVER touch my psych text book and i still gets an A in class. all you have to do is go to lecture because the exams will base on her note. she is always well prepared and gives us outlines for the notes.
By far the best professor I've had. She was the nicest, most helpful and funny woman. I wish I could have her for all of my classes. Im not joking, she makes it soooooo easy for you and she really makes the classes fun and interesting. Shes AWESOME!!!!!!!
i agree with everyone else that prof. delman is very very nice but her class isn't all that fun.. her lectures are clear and too the point but she doesn't make it interesting. she does throw in some jokes here and there but no one really laughs.
SHE TOLD A STUDENT TO DROP HER CLASS WITH A "W" ON HER RECORD BECAUSE OF A CELLPHONE.c/y/a when you make-up a test..do allow her to leave you alone..i received an "f" with a test score of a "B"..THIS PSYCHO do not trust stude
She is a little boring. Once she starts lecturing, she would go on and on and on. The tests are EZ, as long as you take notes, but it's hard to get an "A".
BORING. all of the other psych classes i've taken at PCC were a lot of fun. but this professor makes the subject incredibly uninteresting..
I love this chick! I got a D and a F on tow tests out of three and I got a C on the last one. But, i did the extra credit and the group project and i passed with a C. She even gives out a study guide and I was often absent. She's also enthusiastic when she teaches and gets you inot her teaching.
Her class is different than I'm used to: Study on your own, take an easy quiz, and THEN she teaches it, so you really have to study. A LOT of videos with a little bit of lecture from outside sources (newspapers and stuff) in between. The assignments were easy, but not worth a lot of points.
She's a good teacher, clear, who gives easy tests.
This class is very easy/interesting. Grades based on 3 tests (and she practically gives u the essay questions beforehand) and an extra credit project that is worth 8 points to ur TOTAL grade. Very interesting class. I'm surprised how people got D's and F's on the tests. Great class Great teacher!
if u have to take psych 1 or 24, this is the teacher to take. She only teaches the most imortant things u should know. If u do the work, you should have no problem getting an A or B in her class. She's also funny and entertaining.
This is actually a pretty fun class. You better like watching videos though, because there are a lot! The group project is worth a lot of points but pretty easy if you do the work. Quizes, midterm, and final were all straight-forward and easy if you study.
man she really is neat , im taking her at the moment and i really enjoy her class eventhough i hate psychology. I would recomend her big time
nice lady. her group project is somewhat lame. she's funny and fair, but easily stumped. she gave a lot of "i'm not sure" as answers.
this is an ok class.
She is not funny at all, although she thinks she is. I dont think she really has a clue what she is teaching. If you ask a question she has no idea what to answer. Dont take her if you want to learn about Psych.
She may not be the funniest person but she is pretty entertaining and can wake up some people who arent paying attention. She seems like she actually cares about teaching and that the students learn. Her tests are so straightforward that i actually feel smart for once. Pretty chill and laid back. Take notes and study notes=B+/A =P~
SHE IS THE BEST, SHE WILL HELP YOU WITH ANYTHING, SHE UNDERSTANDS HER STUDENTS, MAKES EVERYTHING CLEAR, AND HER TESTS ARE OPEN BOOK AND NOTES. WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT, I RECOMMEND HER FOR SURE.
She is a nice lady. But it's better to take someone else. She dosn't know the answer to questions asked in class. Her lectures are rushing by the definitions, and it's not much help in learning the material.And she dosn't give time to take notes. The defenitions are in the book. Her lectures are boring and don't help in any way shape or form.
cool teacher. just pay attention in class.. take notes.. you'll do fine. very clear and helpful. very friendly. gives good examples.
She is a very nice teacher, and the quiz are super easy when you studied. Also, the midterm and final are simple because she gives out all the answers in study guide! She makes psychology becomes easier than i thought!
She is so enthusiastic about teaching. She gives you outlines for all lectures, makes the class interesting, I have had her for tow years she is my favorite teacher. psych 2 are ALL open book tests take her!!
If you have to take this class to transfer, take it with Abby Delman! Her style of teaching makes it easy to understand such a complex subject. Her tests are open note and even though that does not make it easier, if you use your book and notes, the A is yours! She is extremely helpful overall and goes above and beyond! Great teacher!
Professor Delman explains very well on the course material. She also offer up to 10 points extra credit for students. Exams are okay as long as you read the book and notes carefully. Overall this is really an interesting class!
She is one of a kind! Nice, easy,and funny. She is why i can tolerate PCC staff! Thank You Mrs.Delman you helped me a lot paving the way to sooner getting me out of the PCC.
Prof Delman is so AWESOME! She's the kind of teacher you'd want for a psych class. She's hilarious and throws in jokes or one liners and gets the class crackin' up. I had her 1x week at night, and you expect a night class to drag, but she makes it go by so fast b/c she lectures, then shows a video, makes you meet w/a group, then off you go.
Ms. Delman is so sweet. I loved every second of this class. She is so understanding, and very clear. Her homework and assignments are very reasonable. She's a good listner. Class is not very easy, but fairly easy if you pay close attention and participate. She's a good teacher to take. Just about everyone in my class loved her.
Abbey is a clear instuctor. She is really there to help you. She rarely gives homework.A problem I am having with her is WHAT items to study for her tests. She goes over the material but when the exam comes, she doesn't exactly tell you what to study. she says "Read your notes and use your book for backup" For some reason, it doesnt help me study..
She's awesome. She's very leniant or at least to the point where you can toss in a few words with friends and there is no homework. Her exams aren't the easiest but they're 20 questions and a short answer. She's very clear and you pretty much never have to read the book. Just make sure you take good notes and study and there's your A!
she is great! her tests are medium, you need to study, but her lectures are very good, she does overheads and also lectures on them, don't miss class or you miss a big chunk of material, but I highly reccomend her she is the reason why i chose to be a psych major. Very motivating and helpful.
Great teacher but tests are hard and she's somewhat unclear about what to know on the exam.. maybe she just wants you to read the whole book and memorize it and memorize her notes.. well if you do that, you'll get an A on her test, if not, you'll get an average grade in her test. VERY HELPFUL THOUGH
Her tests are extremely easy. I would give her a rating higher than 5 for easiness if I could. Just pay attention in class and review the notes. In addition, class goes by very quickly.
What can I say...I love Abby! She is so kind and very smart. She is really funny and down to earth. She is easy. All you have to do is memorize her notes and you will get an "A" for sure. If you don't pass, it is your own fault. I learned a lot from her. Take Abby!
Delman is probably the easiest and nicest professor anyone can have, doesn't matter what your major is. 80% of class was just watching videos and group work. She had a very positive presence about her, made you want to talk to her about all your problems, I mean she IS a psych prof. Kinda like the mom you've always wanted as a kid growing up.
A really nice professor! Her lecture is clear and interesting. The exams are open book and open notes.
I found that as long as I went to class and skimmed through the reading I got an A on the tests. She has 5 multiple choice questions (each has 1 short answer that she gives you ahead of time) and a project where you find newspaper articles (sumarize them and then say where the pysch book talks about them). I would highly recomend her.
Delman is very nice just make sure you study your notes and read the book!=] Her class was very interesting and shes very good at illustrating her lessons.
What a sweet and easy teacher, you can do well and still learn a lot without working too hard.
she's nice, but her tests are hard
DON'T TAKE HER. TEST ARE HARD.
Abby is an effective teacher who shows interest in her students. She is fair-minded and practical in her approach to her subject matter. I learned a great deal in this class and would recommend her to any student.
I loved taking her class. She uses power point for her lectures, and u just copy off the slides and anything else she says. The tests aren't that bad, MC and 1 or 2 short answers. Near the end of the semester, she gives u the questions to the short answers, so that was a BIG help!!! I recommend taking her, she's not that hard and hardly gives hw.
really nice lady, always willing to help, test are multiple choice and 2 essays, the mutiple choice can be kind of hard so you'll have to study the vocab, also she gives hints what the 2 essays on the test are going to be about, she also gives extra credit that helps and does fun activities in class
Easy weekly work assignments, but she's very strict with her grading and her exams can be a little tricky
The class is a little work. The tests are open book, but they are tricky so a little studying wouldn't hurt. DO NOT PLAGIARIZE, DO NOT BE LATE OR ABSENT... she's pretty strict on those. Other than that she is a nice teacher, and though the class is not a total easy A exactly, it's probably an easy B. MARK MY WORDS!!! :-)
ABBY IS THE BEST!!!! If you at all can take her, PLEASE DO!!! She is a very easy teacher, but very strict on attendance. Her quizzes were very helpful and she always gave a reveiw of all the terms that are on the test. The best PSYCH teacher i ever had!!!
Easy A. Tests are open book, however..EXTREMELY boring, and strict on attendance. really couldnt stay awake in her class. She is nice, and very helpful, but again, boring.
I don't find her classes boring at all. The subject is actually very interesting. She's well prepared an willing to help and is not a hard grader. She's a very nice and pleasant person. I recommend her. Does interesting activities during the class. No big ego. Is focused and it's obvious that she loves her job. Thanks Professor Delman! :)
I absolutely loved this class! Abby is great! Everything is hands-on and that makes it easier to learn. Although the textbook is very dry, it is open book, open notes for tests.
Abby is a wonderful, inspiring professor! Will go out of her way for dedicated students. Very DETAILED oriented. She makes sure you COMPLETELY understand. She took very dry, boring material and made it very fun, interactive and hands on. Everything learned was applied to research project. Completely fun and enjoyable, and you learn a lot! :)
She is the sweetest teacher who is most helpful and attentive to students' needs. Very good explanations and well presented material. Loved her!
She's awesome, gave me a very well deserved A. She has weekly vocab quiz, but as long as you study it, you'll easily ace the class. Supplies timely study guides and goes over them. If you like writing, TAKE HER! Trust me, it'll be the easiest A since she has a huge semester long writing project that's worth almost your whole grade. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Awesome teacher! I was 5 pts away from an "A" but since I never missed class she gave me the "A". She gives open book tests which is great, but read carefully because her questions are kind of tricky. the group project is fun too.
she is an amazing teacher!!! take her!!!! really easy, funny, and awesome!!
I loved her class! She's funny and makes lessons interesting. Tests are all multiple choice, but you do have to study. But if you study, then it shouldn't be a problem at all. Plenty of extracredit opportunities. She does take attendence so do turn up. Overall a great, helpful prof. Will take her again if I have time to take another psych class.
SHES A REALLY GOOD TEACHER. ITS AN EASY A.
She is very kind and nice teacher! You should take her class! It not hard to pass her class. I think is easy to get an A if you put your time into it! She is the best teacher! I really enjoy having her!
She very lovely, and her class are easy and you can also larn alot too!
She's the nicest teacher that you'll ever have. She gives vocab quiz every day about the things that she went over the day before. Just Be Prepared everything will go smooth.
easiest A ever. 8 vocab quizzes (matching). 1 mid ex (mult choice) and 1 final (mult choice). Final not cumulative. the most important thing is the group project. do your HW every week and you should be okay.
i had her for 08spring. very ez class. she funny n love to connet outside sources with her class. a very exciting prof. only 3r4 hws of the semester, tests are ez its only 22 questions and it all off from her powerpoint lecture nothing r tricky. 3 current event ez, 1 group prsnt based on ur articel ez. NO midterm n NO final only tests it all ez!!
it's easy "A" if u study all the vocab. terms and read the textbk.
She is the best Psychology teacher you can get! She very kind and very lovely and nice too! It very easy to get an A, even students who are in ESL like me can pass her class with an A, very very easy! and she have a great personality too! You can't get anything better than that! an easy A teacher and also nice personality teacher! She is awesome!
Best psyc professor ever! =] She explains everythin cleary and grades easy. Really fun class. You don't need to get A's on ur test and you'll still get an A in the class. I had a B, 2 Cs and a D on her tests and still got an A in the class. You just have to do her HW and she do accept late work on the same day n gives xtra credit.
Out of all psych teacher i would recommend her. it is rare to have a teacher who lecture actually make sense and at the same time REALLY EXCITING and not boring. She is one of the nicest teacher i ever met. All the notes are in Power Point and gives you extra credit which is pretty simple. So if you see her in Fall/Winter/Spring/Summer list TAKE H
She's amazing! Her tests are relatively easy but she works hard to make sure all the important points are covered. Yes, it's an easy A & you might get away with studying straight out of the book, but attending every class is worth it because you will definitely gain a deeper appreciation for Psychology & professors like Abby after taking this class
Graceful and kind. She is good. If you need psychology, take Abby. I'm not really interested in this stuff, but now I am considering looking into it. Does not favor one student over another.
She's very helpful and nice. it's easy to get A.
She was awesome for Psych 24. She doesn't ask for too much, and some of the work she gave was kinda fun to do. One group presentation and a lot of vocab, but a fun professor. Lectures are not boring.
Tests are quite simple. Grades are based on 5 tests, group project, newspaper reports, and even offers multiple extra credit. Very good teacher! Def Take her!
really nice & helpful. 3 exams (mult. choice and short answer), 1 APA research paper, 1 group research project + presentation (not to the entire class so dont worry), in-class points (so attendance is important!) the paper is broken down into 3 sections so you wont procrastinate and is based on the group research project. study, work, attend class.
She's a sweetheart. Gives 5 tests, many options of extra credit that adds up to 10 points, so you can do two 5 points or one 10 points, and may I add her extra credits are fun. Her notes are up on the overhead, but it's your responsibilty to study the terms because that's what is on the tests mostly. She hands out studyguides and is very funny.
Abby is a wonderful person, she is very clear on lectures but you really have to go to class and take notes and study for her tests. I remember trying really hard and although i deserved a B according to her grading system (I calculated) she gave me an A because she saw that I really put effort into the class.
Abby is a cool teacher. A little quirky at times, but it is because she gets into her lectures. The class is fairly easy. I did not study at all and pulled of an easy b. The write ups she has you do are impossible to get a perfect score on. I would def recomend her.
LOVE HER!!!!!! she is sooo funny and easy. just read the book and follow her study guide outline anndd she gives easy extra credits.
Abby is cool and nice.her class is easy, just copy down the slide shows and study them , the tests are from the slides.Easy class with max 10 points extra credit! Go for it!
At the begining of the class you might be feel lose, but as long as you copy the powerpoint notes and study for the tests you will be fine. 5 tests+3 article summaries+ 1 group presentation+10 pts extra credits. No final exam
An absolute darling at PCC. Very understanding & nice professor. She will go out of her way to help all her students, as long as you ask for the help. Note-based course. Reading the textbook REALLY helps. Will take her AGAIN! She's a socialist and believes in helping everyone she possibly could. Sweet and wonderful professor. Very fair grader.
she is bad!!!!!!!!!!1she is not as easy as i thought and heard. she screw up my 4.0 gpa
her tests are not as easy as i thought. she said that she would not give tricky questions but there are lots of tricky questions on the test
She is very good.Got a B simply because I had many things to do and didn't have enough time to study.5 exams+3 write ups+1 oral presentation+10 pts extra credit.Tests are not hard, but you need to study.If you want to take study psychology,she is the one you should take.Stronglly recommand!!
EASY EASY EASY !!!! 5 tests, 1 group presentation, 3 write-ups. Almost half the class got an A. I only studied for 2 of the tests cuz i changed to NC n was taking some other class, and not focusing on this class during summer. Pulled out a passing grade with very lil effort. If u study a lil bit, defnitely an A . If u dunt study , still a B !!
Professor Delman is a wonderful and helpful professor. She is alway willing to help her students out. Take her class if you are motivated to do well and get a good grade. The research project was the best!! Holler.
One of the best choices for psychology and whatever else she happens to teach. Very informative and repeats things if you want her to. Bring your book every day, study hard and you will pass. Tests are hard so you need to keep your guard up. Good Luck.
Professor is excellent at teaching. 3 assignments that leads to 1 group presentation. Up to 10 extra credit points. Five easy Tests straight from her power point lecture(multiple choice). You do need the text to do the assignment but thats about it. Took this as a GE and I got an A without stressing. Above all you will learn a lot from her class.
A top notch choice! Seriously. Read night before, add to your bluebook thingy next day. She calls it a mind dump. If you are a former student, greets ya in the hallway. Look no further. Take her kay?
Easy class. Just pay attention to lecture and read the notes and you will get an A. She makes it sounds like her tests are hard but tests are not hard at all.
LOVE HER! She's so sweet! One of the best prof in PCC! really care about her student! Her lecture was very clear and helpful. She made boring stuff fun and interesting. Just go to class and pay attention the her lecture and you will be fine. Tests were straight out of lecture. I didn't study that hard but still got an A :)
AWESOME!! she is amazing. Extremely knowledgeable. Well organized. Exams are easy if you do the study guide which is not that much. I love her!! I learned so much! I left PCC already but I HIGHLY recommend her. A+++++++ teacher=]
she's a GREAT prof!! very clear, fun, sweet, and helpful. her tests are pulled from the lecture, and also text, but only over areas she's covered in lectures. slideshows are online. you will learn a LOT, and actually remember it! quizzes are multiple choice, and you get to drop the lowest test score too. in short: take her, take her, TAKE HER.
O.K. Where was I? Great overall but the work can be quite difficult without studying. Put in some study time and all is well. Get the point?
Amazing! The best class experience in PCC. Thank you!
She makes sure to give time to her students
hw is mandatory, will not pass without doing them but all her hw are very easy. 5 tests and drops the lowest grade, so you can skip one of her tests. one group presentation but it was pretty fun. great prof!
So far the best teacher I have taken for any Psychology class. There is extra-credit for those who need it, and tests are pretty chill since study guides are available. Definitely recommendable.
Great Professor and a very interesting class. She is a nice and caring professor, glad to have taken her class.
Teacher: Sweet, Blunt, Easy to follow, Flexible, A bit unorganized.Class: Use the book, Well made syllabus, Test based more on lecture, A lot of extra credit, Presentation at end of class based on research, Don't need book for the class just to study. Great experience, take her if you like Psych or are just looking for an interesting class to take.
VERY sweet, helpful teacher. Definitely recommend her. Her tests are VERY straightforward and easy. The class is fun and she is very engaging and you learn without doing much work.
Professor Delman was so great! She's funny and easy-going. She makes lectures/notes available online which make studying really easy. Easy A if you study. Take advantage of the extra credits. Hope I can take her for something else in the future!
Prof Delman is the sweetest teacher I have ever met. She really gets the class interested in a difficult subject and explains it so that non-psych majors can also understand. Overall, her class is a enjoyable with just a bit of effort.
She is the most helpful Professor I ever met. She is kind, sweet, and great to be around. I am taking her class right now, and I'm actually NOT a Psych Major! I am an English Major who simply wanted to have a Professor who has a great syllabus. HER SYLLABUS IS CRYSTAL CLEAR! No reason to not know what grade you have in her class. TAKE HER :-D
She is NICE and SWEET! This class is not hard at all if you do all the work that she asks. She also takes off your lowest exam scores. 3 current event articles, 5 exams, 1 presentation (easy)... EASY A!
Professor Delman is one of the finest teacher's at PCC. The class is well structured and caters to the student's success. She's very kind and approachable. Her candid personality made all the lectures fun. She drops the lowest exam, and each exam has only 25 multiple choice questions. Show up, do the work, and you'll definitely pass this class.
Pof. Delman is the best!!! She is very sweet, interesting,extremely fun and caring. I adore her !!! Definitely recommend taking her class
I love Abby she is such a sweetheart and makes everything very easy to understand. Her class was very fun and she try's her best to keep it fun and interesting. It's all about the power-points if you want to do well on her tests.
Highly recommend! Nice personality and clear lectures. Powerpoint lectures. Drops lowest exam. Easy to get a B. Must put some effort for an A. I got an A and compared to other college classes, this class ain't time consuming or challenging at all. Must take!!!
Best teacher ever
NOT a professor to take if you want to be engaged and actually learn something. She's constantly talking about her own mental illness and cancer. Grade is based off 3 current events, exams, and a group project. Virtually no student class participation. I really hated this class... changed my major because the material is so horribly presented.
That last student must have failed the course AND have their own mental illness issues. I question their rationality and ability to proceed in college. They should get a menial minimum wage job and leave college to the intelligent people. This professor is wonderful. She is a great lecturer, sweet, and easy to get along with. Great Professor!
Professor Abby is a great professor. Be prepared to study a lot; she gives out 7 exams with 25 questions on it. She does not give out study guides; your packets are your study guides. She's clear on what she wants. She's a tough professor but if you love psych and biology, this class should be no probs. She also has the slideshow up.
To study for the tests go over and over and over the slideshows. Make sure you understand the concept, and remember the slideshow word for word. Reading the book helps you understand the material more, few q's will be from the book. The majority of the test q's will be extracted from the slideshow. Study a hefty amount. Easy class w effort.
I'm not crazy about professors who use power points and just read them as they go. I like a professor who can lecture on the fly. She has a great attitude and is clear in what she expects. She wants you to do well, so follow directions, show up, read, study the lectures and you should get an A.
Overall good teacher. Teaches off powerpoints and asks that you read over and study at home the material to get a better understanding. You have to study a lot because her exams are mostly the biggest things you get graded on ( aside from the articles). Does offer extra credit opportunities, you can get an A but it will take plenty of effort.
Nice teacher. Tests are pretty easy - I usually just study and memorize terms the night before and score A on the tests. Beware though - there are a total of 6 tests a semester (although she will drop the lowest score so you can basically skip one exam if you wish to). Lectures are pretty boring and long.
Abby is so sweet! Her tests are pretty straight forward and I didn't really have to study to get a B on them. Her group project is really easy and you are practically gaurenteed an A. She offers up to 10 points extra credit so it's pretty easy to get an A.
She is soooooooooo nice! If you lazy don't take this class. you should be study hard this class not easy A class. 7exam 1presentation 10pt extra credit 50pt research paper
Abby is a very sweet and nice woman, but the lectures seemed boring & endless. She does give hw assignments but not too much, most are doing online or printing something. The tests are kind of hard, some questions are a bit confusing. The activities were pretty fun. The best was the extra credit trip to the taping of The Doctors extra cred points
I highly recommend Delman especially if you are a psych major. She is a total sweetheart and her tests are fairly simple if you study hard. She assigns one group project at the end of the semester.
Professor Delman is just as advertised an absolute sweetheart!! Very empathetic with students and gives really good feedback. She also really prepares you for her exams. I can totally see other teachers making this class really tough but Delman makes it as easy as possible. You definitely have to study for tests but she goes over exam material.
Six tests on mostly two chapters. Our packet is the study guides, so during lecture we are doing the study guides. If your aren't a psych major, honestly just memorize the ppts I did that for the last 3 tests and got 24, 24, 25 all out of 25. Drops lowest test score. Tests aren't cumulative. If its clear you're getting an A, you don't take 6th test
She is charismatic and funny. Passionate about the subject. Enjoyable class.
Her class is pretty easy. Vocabulary quiz every week study and you'll do great in the quizzes. Exams are based on vocabs and lecture. Attendance is mandatory. She gives 2 extra credit opportunities. Not a lot of homework. Don't have to buy the book its online for free.
The class was somewhat easy but she was just really boring. I had a hard time getting engaged. When I would get the test it seemed like everything she talked about was not on that test. So I just dropped the class. She is sweet lady, just not a great teacher
What a great motivational teacher. She has a great personality and builds awesome friendships with her classmates, but she is a bit picky when it comes to grading. You need the textbook so that you memorize the "end of module quiz" of each chapter.
Her lectures are 99% powerpoint. Her definition of plagiarism is different than that of any professor I've known and your grade can suffer for it. She definitely knows her stuff but she is not one to fool around during class. Prof. Delman rarely does anything outside of lecture but nonetheless teaches what is necessary & what exactly is on the test
Professor Delman herself is a very nice, understanding, and funny professor! But the way she teaches the class for me, wasn't helpful. 100% of her lectures are powerpoint, and taking notes. She doesn't really know the answer to every question you ask, and class is not as engaging and interactive as you would think. Also one group presentation.
I thought Professor Delman was great. She's funny and structured. You know what she's going to cover and you know what is on the exams. I really liked the biopsychology in movie assignment, I thought it was unique and it got me thinking. I would take her again!
I took professor Delman's 6 week summer course at 7:30 in the morning. For this being a quick-paced and early morning class, she makes the class really easy to follow and makes the material enjoyable. We had a quiz every thursday and she dropped the lowest score,. No midterm or final and she posts all her slides online. Highly recommend her!
Professor Delman is such a sweet lady, and really cares for you and your grade. She is understanding and is always there when help is needed. But, her lectures do get boring, and she goes off tangent. Also her tests are SUPER hard, anything that she ever talked about or you took notes on, is NOT on the test. Vocabulary is off the charts.
6 exams, 1 dropped. Allows cheat sheet for tests. One group essay comparing psych terms to movies. Group presentation of essay. 10 pts extra credit max. Tries to keep 7am students awake with her energetic personality. She's alright. Doesn't upload grades on canvas. Takes attendance everyday. Very caring and understanding.
Delman is the best. Super nice and energetic, and extremely caring. She really cares about each student and how they perform. Everything is extremely straight forward. 6 exams, drops lowest, cheat sheet allowed on everything, 10 points extra credit, big group project that can really affect your grade. Wish I could take her for every Psych class :(
As a person, she is great. As a teacher,I would never recommend her. She is a harsh grader and her standards are unlike anything I've ever seen.
6 exams, drops lowest one. If you need help, such as her paper which can really affect your grade, attend her office hours!! She's more than happy to help you. As for the exams, if you're not a psyc major, memorizing the information will help. Her exams are not hard but rather straighword. Plus 10 extra credit points?!?! Really caring Professor!!
I felt as if Professor Delman wasn't able to discuss anything that wasn't directly written on her slides. She's very kind and grades easy but I didn't feel as if I had enough of a challenge. I would've liked to go deeper into the topic. Overall easy A
Because of her class, I decided to change my major to cognitive Science. Overall, the tests and readings were very straightforward; athough some of the questions can be tricky, reading the book AND slides will help you do well. Drops one lowest test, and 10 extra points are given. Make sure to attend her office hours if u struggle with the paper!
Prof. Delman was a great professor! There are vocab quizzes almost every class, but are VERY easy. All homework is reviewed in class before it is turned in and she allows a "cheat sheet" for EVERY exam. She drops your lowest scores on quizzes and exams and gives extra credit. Go to class and take notes and it is a Very easy A. I loved her class!!!
She would make us read the chapters as hw, give us the quizzes on that chapter & then teach us the chapter afterwards. I felt there was no point in taking this class if Im basically teaching myself by reading the chapters while all shes doing is showing us slides that we have access 2 view at home(definition on quizzes would be different than book)
Professor Delman is great and makes a tough subject (Biological Psych) accessible. She keeps me awake at 7am and gives points from lots of different areas (including a paper which is 1/4 of your grade).In my opinion the class would be boring and slow over a regular semester so take in Summer if you don't mind working hard! Quizzes every day.
Currently taking her class and yes, test are easy but for some reason I CANT GET AN A!!!! Also, her essay is killing me b/c she's expecting too much without teaching. She just made me hate psychology & I'm never taking anything related or her again. She think she so cool 2
Professor Delman is amazing! She really cares about her students and makes it so easy to pass, as long as you show up and do the work. There are vocabulary quizzes every week, but they come straight from the textbook. She gives optional assignments for extra credit. Delman's lectures are very thorough. Her tests are based off of the hw. Take her!
Prof Delman was awesome. Very easy class, you earn your grade. Vocal quizzes almost every class meet, but very simple. Lecture is based on powerpoint but I recommend paying attention more on what she says because it will be on the test. One major research paper, but you have almost all semester to complete it. She defiantly cares for her students.
She's a really caring and understanding professor. She drops the 4 lowest quiz grades and lowest test score. She gives you a clear syllabus of what you're doing each day and the whole point structure. She is a little boring, but will try to make it interesting so I appreciate that. There is a final paper.
Professor Delman has been one of my favorite professors at PCC. If you put in the work, attend class, and follow her syllabus YOU WILL PASS THIS CLASS. I guarantee the others that have posted on this thread with negative comments have put minimal effort into the class. She allows a cheat sheet on each exam, drops 1 exam grade & 4 quiz grades.
Professor Delman is truly one of the best professors at PCC. She has a lot of office hours, and is always happy to help. One biopsychology analysis paper, but if you follow the instructions and have her read it over you will do well. Do not skip class! If you have the chance to take this professor, go for it!
quiz is vocab studyguide-exact is easy, 1 outline is hard, 1 essay is fix outline if easy. Test is HARD! idk y I can nevr pass her test but classmate say easy so idk. 1 page note, 5 exam. just copy lecture notes n u Gucci. dont rlly like her/not approachable but ok-ish. 1 pt away from A- and never late/always went to class so she rounded to an A-.
This professor is probably the best psychology teacher i have ever taken. She is very clear with the way she grades. Lots of quizzes but they are straightforward and easy. Test are extremely easy if you read the textbook. Great professor i would highly recommend her to anyone who is interested in psychology!
Amazing. Amazing. Amazing. Very knowledgeable, organized, and patient. She makes sure you get the information and doesn't mind when you have question. I would absolutely take her again if I could. One of my favorite classes last semester. Always keeps the class engaged.
Get ready to be degraded
Professor Delman really knows her stuff. If you don't do well on tests, make sure to do well on Vocab quizzes and it will save your grade. it's a simple 10 question fill in word to definition vocab quiz.
Delman is amazing. She cares a lot for her students, and really aims for them to pass. She's known for coddling them step by step, but really, it's for better, and you do learn a lot from her. One thing though, is that you need to study the textbook chapters on your own for the test, profusely. They can be tricky. Lets you have exam note sheets :)
Really nice lady, and is pretty funny too. There are vocab quizzes almost every class, so make sure to study for those. If you don't study for the vocab quizzes you might not end up liking your final grade in the class. Tests are not hard, but make sure you know the material.
Shes honestly an easy A. Dont take her if you want to learn. Homework is gone over before turning it in. 10 vocabulary quizzes where you easily match answers: study guide is word for word with the quiz. The tests are based off the powerpoint and you get a cheatsheet. You don't even need the book. Some people dont even show up to class and get As
Professor Abby is extremely nice and kindhearted. She cares a lot for her students and tries and is always accessible on her "student hours." There are about 13 quizzes (very easy if you study, takes the highest 10 quizzes, and are matching vocab) 5 exams ( moderate), research essay (she is very strict on it) & extra credit. Easy class with effort
One of the most caring professors hands down. She'll work with and around your schedule if needed. Annoying little vocal quizzes almost every session but are easy to pass. Exams come with one page of typed notes so it's hard to fail really. Easy extra credit opportunity. Really great person.
Abby was probably one of the best psych professors I've ever had. She is super funny and really encourages you to learn. The tests are open notes. The movie analysis is probably the most difficult part of the class, but she has office hours where you can ask her questions. She always has snacks and gives them out during heavy lecture days
Professor Delman is amazing. PSYCH 1 was understandable, fun, interesting. Easy A. Plenty of extra-credit opportunities. If you do the homework, study for exams even though cheat sheets can be used but N/A for quizzes, show up to class, and take notes, you will pass. Notes are posted so easy accessibility. Overall, a great person. Take her class!
Delman hands-down has to be one of my favorite professors. She is the sweetest and made PSYCH 02 easy! Study for vocab and use cheat sheets for her test and you will be fine.
She is the most sweetest teacher ever, the only reason why I failed was because i never showed up in the beginning , I wouldn't study for the quizzes and exam but she is very caring of her students, she's funny and very understanding, if you speak to her she will allow late work, over just a sweet heart!
It's a boring class but it's easy. The research paper is not easy. The test and homework is easy so be careful with the research paper.
She is one of the best Psychology professor I've ever taken. She is so sweet and caring. Cheat sheet is allowed for tests and exams. Quizzes help your grade a lot so be sure to study for quizzes!
WEEKLY VOCAB TEST, BUT SHE KNOCKS 4 OFF YOUR GRADE AT THE END OF THE SEMESTER. YOU DO HAVE A PAPER DUE AS A FINAL, BASED ON ALL WORK IN CLASS (INTERVIEW AN ELDER) BUT SHES SWEET AS CAN BE AND VERY UNDERSTANDING I LOVE HER
Prof. Delman doesn't have a single mean bone in her body. She's the most compassionate and empathetic professor I've ever met, and she truly cares about her students. She has office hours 4x a week so she is very accessible and is always willing to look over your work before you turn it in so you get the highest possible score. I love her so much!
I only had Abby for a few weeks before PCC shut down. But she is one of the kindest professors! Her class is mostly lectures but they are really interesting and she makes it fun. I definitely wish I could've continued taking her class. You will need to buy the textbook, but you can get it online or an earlier edition. Easy A as long as you try.
Professor Delman really cares about her students and is passionate about her job. She has a great attitude and is always positive in class. She really encouraged me to learn and participate in class. Too bad the school had to shut down, but she is still very quick to answer any emails.
Took her for Spring when we switched to remote/online. She was very nice with grading. You have second chances to submit work for more credit. In-person we had vocab quizzes and chapter divided tests. Responds to emails and is very clear with grading structure. She posts EVERYTHING on Canvas. I recommend taking her if you need the class! Good prof
Professor Abby is a tough grader on easy discussions in class. You really need to study a lot in order to understand half of what is on the exams. You read a lot of different articles and watch videos. The material is easy but the exams are different from the context. She means well and is a good professor, but she is not the one for me.
I took her online class and I honestly don't recommend it. She is a very harsh grader, especially for the mandatory online discussion boards. She asks for 5-6 sentences for the initial post, but if you want a 10/10 you need to write more like 20+. Exams are also extremely difficult and she words them in a way that are different than the readings
Maybe Professor Delman's class is better taken in-person but my online experience was regrettable. Early exams asked questions that were not clearly addressed in the provided readings, and the weight anonymous surveys carry is ridiculous. I missed one survey and it affected my overall grade by a full percentage point.
