Also, take into account some of the other variables. You get half-a-second for 1 question. But if you include the time it takes to press next,the time it takes for the next question/page to load and the time it takes to scroll down to the question,it takes away like 10 seconds.

Professor Dill was very good, however, you must pay attention and do work on time and with your best effort. If you love mythology I highly recommend it!

Dr. Dill is one of the best professors I've had. I highly recommend taking mythology with her, as her lectures are not only engaging but also very entertaining, for the most part. I would say the only downside is that her class only has 6 assignments: 3 papers, and 3 tests (including the final), so you need to pay attention to her lectures.

On the first day, Dr. Dill made the class seem easy, with extra-credit, cheat sheets on exams, and easy content- that couldn't be farther from the truth. She grades any writing done on exams or essays with her own made up rubrics which do not-follow her own words in class or rubrics she posts online.If you don't already have a myth degree DONT TAKE

Took this class because I thought it would be easy, but that is FAR from the truth. Amy goes really fast with her lectures, so it's easy to get lost when you're typing 10 pages of notes per lecture. If you do poorly on one essay or test, it affects your grade for the rest of the semester. Do not take this class unless you love mythology!!

The best professor I have ever had. As long as you put in the work the grades are easy. Show up to class and you will do well, she goes over everything you need to know in lectures but gives it in such an interesting way that made me genuinely excited to go to class. Tons of extra credit, and great feedback on assignments.

At first, you might think this class is cake, but it turned out to be my least favorite class this semester. Amy engages with the class, but her lectures don't prepare you for exams. She allows a cheat sheet, but the questions are so specific and fill-in-the-blank that they are impossible to ace. Hard grader with essays too. Take CLT with Craft.

Professor Dill is a great professor and a better person. She grades hard, but if you put in the time and effort, then you'll be fine in this class. If you're into Ancient Greece then I highly recommend.

this class was one of the worst ive ever taken at FSU. expect 3 exams + 3 papers in the semester. The exams for this course are harder than any of my business major exams. She asks extremely specific questions and makes you write a lot on top of the hard questions. She took about a month and a half to grade 700 word papers, and graded roughly lol

Professor Dill is engaging and informative. The assignments aren't difficult, but make you think critically. This class was well outside my major, but I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for an interesting class. Also, CLA2110 counts for a few liberal studies requirements; what more could you ask for?

Dill was very nice and extremely generous with extra credit. Her tests are fully based on lectures which can be tough, but recording them seemed to work very well. Regardless, the extra credit was so plentiful it didn't matter much. You have to attend lectures or you will not do well.

Your only grades are a few tests and a few papers. Overall the grading isn't that rough, but sometimes isn't directly based on the rubric. For tests you'll be a few chances within the classes before to have extra credit opportunities. You're also given a full cheat sheet and a test review to study for the tests.

Grades based on if you are paying attention in class, not if your answers are actually correct. Teaches about Ancient Greece and Mythology, but every quiz is on rhetorical style (which we never practice in class). Overall, I do not recommend taking this professor. Lectures are also very boring.

This teacher was an extremely rough grader and very lecture heavy. She only cares about whether you were paying attention during lectures. She also refused to wear a microphone so I couldn't understand pretty much anything she was saying. The one good thing I'll say is that attendance isn't mandatory but in class assignments are extra credit.

Genuinely, do not take her class or any class she teaches. Class is very lecture heavy and they're extremely boring. Class is about Greek Mythology & History but we practice rhetorical English work like styles & ethos pathos logos (which she never teaches us how to decipher). Favoritism for people who pay attention PLEASE DON'T TAKE THIS CLASS!

Professor Dill is an exceptional teacher and I would recommend her to anyone. Her lectures are interesting and engaging and the work is not too much if you put in a little effort. Go to her office hours, she enjoys interacting with her students, and the course work is not bad at all with loads of extra credit.

She is funny and engaging and posts lecture slides but goes more in depth in person making it valuable to go. She also releases a study guide of topics/vocab/people for tests and you are allowed a full sheet of notes for the test. The essays are flexible in topic and date! Attendance is not mandatory but there are extra credits for going some days

She is clearly very passionate about mythology, so you would find it surprising how incredibly boring and hard to follow her lectures are. She also moves very fast. What bothers me the most is how vague her writing assignments are and will not permit you to use any outside sources and only the slides or links she provides.

Went to office hours with Amy and she seems like a cool person, but not a fan of her teaching. You definitely have to be interested in mythology to enjoy the class. You can use a study sheet on exams, but I don't find them that helpful, the questions deep dive into the class. I found her teaching boring.

Your grades consist of essays and exams- but if you don't procrastinate and actually put in an ounce of effort you'll do well. I am currently at a B+ and I don't attend lectures. She posts her slides on canvas- however explains more in depth in the lectures themselves. She allows 1 cheat sheet per exam and has lots of extra credit opportunities

Idk WHAT these people are on about. Chill teacher. Incredibly easy class. Writing/in class assignments are graded on completion. Exams are easy and you get a full sheet of notes, going to lectures helps but you can get away with just reading the slides. Also FLEX structure so you dont even have to do that much work. No homework, no essays, no book.

Anyone on here complaining just didn't want to try at ALL for this class. Dill gives you SO many opportunities to get a good grade in the class. All you need is to go to all the lectures, take notes, and listen. You get extra credit often if you attend class, cheat sheets for exams, and essay make-ups. She is also so nice and understanding.

I took this class to cover two of my mandatory credits. My advisor said many people enjoy this class and usually think it's pretty easy. This is currently the hardest class I have ever taken and would not recommend this class to ANYONE. The exams are insanely hard and even if you miss an in-class assignment for any reason, you can't make it up. 0/5

Amy Dill is a great lecturer, and has a unique class structure that makes the class very flexible. It is a flex class, allowing you to choose what assignments to complete. If you do well on first 2 midterms, you don't even need to take the final. Content is interesting, and she makes it fun. Overall great experience.
