She's good at explaining what she wants you to know, but there are a lot of errors in her handouts and tests. She tries to make stats fun (is that possible?). Watch out for the test and her strict point system - even though its a stats class, she doesn't grade on a curve!
Best teacher at Pierce!!!! She is so nice...Lectures are very intreasting....Very Helpfull...If you pay attention and glance over the book easy A...Term papers are very intreasting...Excellent Grader!!!!!!!!!
Great teacher she is willing to help her students understand. Gives lots of extra credit. Makes the class very fun.
UMMM, yeah, that class was so stupid. Everyone in the class was lost, we would sleep, not listen, teach her the right way.... She's very nice and she'll do anything to make you pass her class but, hey man, honestly, she doesn't know anything about stat. It's ur call.
Are you kidding me??? She was by far the worst teacher I've had at Pierce! She assigned extra credit and after we did it she wouldn't give us the points! Every time someone asks a question she gets defensive and says we're "challenging" her. She berated students in class saying "dont you know ho
If stats is your least favorite subject, you will be pleasantly surprised. The semester was enjoyable and the material was made interesting and pertenant. Dont miss class, study your lecture notes and turn in all the Homework, classwork and extra credit and a good grade will surely follow.
See professor review for Wimsatt (correct spelling of her name). She was AWFUL! And super unfair!
Very cool teacher!! She is nice, fun, and her lectures are very interesting. She has truly made be love psychology. Tests are very straight foward. Take notes and listen and you'll do fine. She also give you 2 papers to write, but they are interesting assignments, not a drag at all!
I'm gald I had professor Wimsatt for statistics. She gives you chances for extra credit, how can you not take that chance?! She did her best to make this math class as enjoyable as possible. I liked her
This was my last math class to take and Mrs.Wimsatt was great.When I was having trouble she made it very easy to talk to her. As boring as Stats is she made it very fun to learn it.
she's a cool,fair,and understanding! i got an A~!! her assignments arent that bad (i always did a a day before)~!
all i gotta say is that shes very unorganized and her tests have nothing to do with the study guides.
She's the bomb! She goes out of her way to help you if you need extra help. She gives different examples if you don't get one and goes at a good speed. If you ask a question she doesn't go on till u get it and will spend extra time on you alone till u get it.
She was great and fun and easy to talk to. Stories were personal and interesting. She made me feel that if she could do it, so could I. She gives credit where credit is due and will totally work with you and your own challenges. She is fair and understanding. Highly recommend!
She is a very nice and intresting teacher. she makes the lecture fun, as fun as statistics can be. she is really understanding and helpful. however she is so unorganized and i didnt realy learn that much the test where hard and the study guides suck.
Go to class, you will NEVER, and I mean never know when points will be available. She says that quizzes will always be on the last meeting of the week and classwork the first, but it never turned out that way. Notes are useless, as they are the same in the book. So try as little as you can, and you'll get a B as she gives a grip of EC
WONDERFUL TEACHER IF YOU WANT TO PASS YOUR STATS CLASS TAKE HER. SHE GIVES STUDY GUIDES WITH ANSWERS, U JUST HAVE TO WORK THE PROBLEMS OUT AND IF YOU KNOW HOW TO DO THE PROBLEMS IN THE STUDY GUIDE YOU WILL DO GREAT. VERY INTERESTING CLASS.
great professor. lot of extra credit. easy to get an A if you come to class regularly. her class is really fun and you do dont get bored. she will help you if you are willing to learn.
she is nice and funny, but she is soo unorganized. In our class she never returned her work back, so you did not know your grade on hardly anything.
This prof. is EXTREEMELY unorganized! Not even a grade so far in the class... Just jokes around and reads of the text. She even gets lost in her own notes.
Statistics is not a fun subject, but Carmen is a fun teacher. She makes the subject as interesting as possible and she relates the material to everyday life. If you must take Stats, she is the instructor to get you through it. Highly recommended!
This prof is the absolute worse? If u like corny jokes, don't really wanna know how you are doing through out the course then TAKE HER! I still don't know my grade and the fall semester is over and GRADES were due last week. VERY un- organized and has an excuse for everything! She was 1 hr late for our freaking final. Who does that? YUCK!
She was late a lot and not really on top of things. She understands statistics well, but is not the most responsible teacher.
At first teachers views seemed dogmatic, but at the end of the semester it became clear her opinions from an educated viewpoint is knowledgable of the other side. Entertaining lecturer and very sweet teacher. Wants to see her students succee!!. Tests are easy if you study. KEYTERMS!!! Memorize/understand key terms and tests are a breeze
The worst professor I have ever had. Completely disorganized and always late to class. Quizzes every day but she never goes over the material. Reads straight from the book and does not know the material. If you have a question, she cannot explain what she has just said in the lecture. Its basically up to you and the book.
i am amazed at the good ratings here.I will tell u guyzz the REAL TRUTH about her.1st of all she is a nice person and is not such a bad teacher.She gives extra credit and all and SEEMS helpful,but this is the problem.she is not.she always makes promises she cant keep, she is THE MOST disoragnized person ever.U could hav an F or an A and NOTEVen noi
I loved this class. The only problem is that she is disorganized. This is a VERY EASY CLASS. All it takes is a little studying before the test. Quizzes are given every week. They are extremely easy. It is all based on the lectures.
Cool Prof. Funny and a lot of extra credit.
She was a great teacher. If you go to class and pay attention you don't need to read the book. There is a quiz almost every week but you just need to study your notes and you will be fine. I hate math and I got an A. She is very good at explaining if you don't understand.
great teacher!! very understanding, and is willing to give anyone as much help as they need to understand the material. the class is not hard. took it during summer, so there were daily quizes on the previous day's material. tests were not bad either, all you have to do is study!!
she is an amazing teacher..she is very helpful.she made me want to learn more about psychology..she gives a lot of extra credit.specially on exams..she is wonderful..her voice is quite soft so grab the nearest seat..i would definitely recommend her to my friends..
Cool teacher, she's so nice and very easy, quiz every week but extremely easy if you pay attention in the class. Bunches of EC.and the tests are not hard. Highly Recommend!!!
Love her! very helpful, sweet and funny.
NOT EASY BUT NOT HARD, JUST SHOW UP, TAKE YOUR BOOK AND MAKE SURE YOU GET THE MATERIAL.
Really kind woman and teacher. Easy lectures, no real need to read the book if you pay attention. She tells a lot of really odd stories about herself but its all in good will. Do the HW, I would have had an A instead of a B if I hadn't missed a couple hws.
Prof Wimsatt is nice; nicer outside class hours. She tries to help. She's not as thorough as she could be. Usually late. She actually said that she was teaching at the "lowest common denominator". Is it me or is that statement inappropriate to say to your class? Im a born-again student with a 4.0 and I am struggling. Stats is my nemesis
wimsatt comes off as a smart woman who would be usually be a wonderful teacher were she not going through incredible stress; however, she's having personal problems that are causing her to miss classes, lesson plans, and test days. don't take her if this is one of the core classes for your major and you want to get into grad school.
Great teacher. Great attitude and wants you to succeed. Very fair. Teaches well. Writes sloppily on the board.. so make sure you pay attention. I love this class.
Honest person. She is very clear and intelligent. She made statistics doable for an art major! Shes wonderful and I never once felt like I was wasting my time sitting in her statistics class.
Mrs. Wimsatt is a wonderful teacher. I took her class in summer and passed with a C. If you hate statistics, you need to take her. She will make sure you pass if you show up.
She's the most disorganzied professor i've ever taken in college. She's missed 5 class meetings and makes the students believe she's only missed "two days". If you want to pass and not feel its a waste of time. DO NOT TAKE HER!!! I REPEAT, DO NOT TAKE HER! SHE IS WORTHLESS!
Just a waste of time! Finals are today, and we haven't learned anything really. She promises Extra Credit, and she never assigns it to us. She does'nt know how to teach. It is true what those have said bad comments about her, SHE DOES NOT GIVE YOU AN IDEA WHERE DO YOU STAND IN THE CLASS!!! I Hate Her Class.
STAY AWAY FROM HER!!!! She's horrible and useless to teach.
So much for taking this course. I don't know what i got in the final or in the class. I gave her my self-stamped envelope and i haven't received it back. THIS CLASS WAS B.S. She is a sorry teacher, always having problems with her life. If she can't teach (cuz of her life) then she should not bother to teach at all.
very,niceeee.EASYYY classs just attend and study;honestly she is the best
I didn't learn a thing in this class. I remember 3 classes that she actually showed up and stayed the whole time! She would teach on one level and test on another. I don't even think she ever graded anybody's work. Got an A in the class but didnt learn a thing
does she add????
Wimsatt's a firecracker. She's had a difficult and interesting lofe story. She's a great person, but a terrible teacher, and just has too much on her plate. She ended up either missing or coming late to most classes. Exams were simple, and the midterm was take home. I got an A, but honestly didn't learn anything in the process.
Her class was EASY. You dont really learn psych all THAT much so if you really want to learn it then take someone else. She writes notes on the board & you copy. You'll go home early almost every time. Somtimes she wont show for class. Her notes are sort of sloppy. Interesting life stories. Study from the text book and notes for the test...
She's somewhat interesting, but don't get on her bad side because she'll basically make your life miserable, she's late you won't learn a lot find a better psych teacher then her, she let's emotions get into the way of her teaching
Easy, easy class. Won't really learn anything... Book needed to study for tests. Her notes are very disorganized so try to keep up. She let us out early... I took her in 2007 though... If ur looking to learn dont take this class but if u just wana pass it for a one time requirement for IGETC or something like that, take it coz its easy.
I do not enjoy math at all. Wimsatt was definitely a refreshing instructor even though she was not the most organized. She is nice and approachable, however, and understands that everyone is not good at math, nor likes it. Take her: you will get out of class early once a week guaranteed.
SHE IS A SWEET PERSON AND HAS HAD A HEART-BREAKING LIFE. HOWEVER, SHE CHOSE TO TEACH AND ALL OF THE OUTSIDE STUFF SHOULD NOT AFFECT THE WAY SHE TEACHES. BUT IT DOES. IT WAS A SHORT SEMESTER AND SHE MISSED 2 CLASSES W/OUT LETTING ANY OF THE STUDENTS KNOW THAT CLASS WAS CANCELED. ALSO, SHE WAS LATE AT LEAST 20 MIN TO EVERY CLASS.
Prof Wimsatt needs to get organized, be on time, and assign more homework to truly have students understand the material. I have no clue what my grade is because she has given back approx 50% of work. The only way to contact her is via email and she does not respond to emails. Very frustrating to feel left behind when I'm good at math.
She is a kind woman; not a good teacher. Might need to find a new career. Did not return any of the work, never responds to emails and then tries to put it on u for not having someone to speak with re:assignments. Also, she was late to every class and did not cover the last 6 chapters that we were supposed to. I feel she just wants to get easy $
not a good teacher
Wasn't really a fan. She seems to be unorganized and has excuses for her lack of punctuality and scattered teaching. Psych is an important class and a good teacher is necessary to understand the subject. Take someone else who wants to teach and help you.
not the easiest teacher.however, there are better teachers. but she is too not bad. if you NEED to take stat and she is the only one take her. just constantly ask for updates about your grade so u can keep track.
The point of teacher's like Prof. Wimsatt is to allow intelligent human beings who have no interest in being in a Stat class (but need it for requirements) to pass through it painlessly. She is very unorganized and has a lot of personal things that keep her from being there all the time. Enjoy it. I got an A. Just make yourself known.
I was 15 years old and i got a B+ in her class,best prof! Her hw are basic, she either gives u question from the book or research. Mostly all her quizzes are multiple choices that are 5-10 questions. Everyday she will tell u a story of her life to give you an ex. of what shes talking about, TAKE THIS CLASS!! I'm planning on taking her other classes
The only hard thing of this class was the final and mid term but if you get good grades in her quizzes (there short and easy) and do the research paper you'll pass the class with a B. Oh, yeah and the research paper do at the end of the class was hard but worth it if you want psychology as your major. good/fair/funny prof
She curved my mid term and my final. Funny teacher, sweet heart. Hw is easy,loves to tell personal life stories related to the subject were learning, has experience of being a social worker.
This teacher is most disorganized teacher that i have ever had. You will not get any of your work back and you must keep asking her for grade updates. She seems very very very chill, but she is a beast when it comes to grading and giving curves. She claims to "hook you up" on tests but she only will give out a few As. Do not take her!
Unfair grading, stay away. She is so disorganized and has so many family problems going on that she should not even be teaching.
You have a quiz every single week and also have 4 tests and a very hard final. She is so disorganized that you won't know your grade until you see it online. Very unhelpful. Do not take unless she is only open class.
I thought she was a really cool teacher at first, but after a few weeks when it was too late to drop for me, i realized i made a big mistake staying with her. I did not get any papers back and didn't know my grade until they were posted online. Don't take her
This teacher is a liar. She told the class that the extra credit would boost up people grades, but it didn't. she is so unhelpful and very rude.
Warning people...she is not who she seems to be. She will seem as if she is super super chill and it is an easy class. However when it comes to grading and returning papers you will never get any paper back and she will ruin your gpa. Half of my class had problems with their grades, but she did not care or look into it. She is a big control freak.
Very uncaring individual. Not only will you not learn anything in her class, but she is heartless and does not care about her students as long as she gets her paycheck.
stay away. mean teacher.
STAY AWAY!!!
Bad teacher and bad class. Very disorganized, you wont get anything back. Very tricky quizzes and nearly impossible final. She said extra credit would be worth 5 percent, but she lied. Don't take her
Dirty and disorganized style of teaching. Not friendly and very controlling. Do not take, she is not the nicest or the most knowledgeable.
Unfair teacher and unfair grader. Do not take her for stats not matter what. She ruined my gpa
Unfair teacher
Unfair grader. Not one person received an A in her class. Do not do extra credit, it is too much work and she doesn't even add it in. Very unfriendly. Has sort of a fake side to her in the classroom because after class hours she will ignore ignore ignore. Don't take her, shouldn't even be teaching
Doesn't teach at all and doesn't apply the extra credit. Very bad attitude as well. Don't take.
Wow, I can't believe this teacher got so many bad ratings. I had a class once a wk and i skimmed the chapter and read my notes an hour before going to class. i got an 90.1. As long as you take notes, you'll be fine on the weekly quizzes. and her lectures are SOOO INTERESTING. She's got some pretty amazing stories. Exams are based off the textbook.
One of those teachers who thinks every student needs to bow down to them. Very unhelpful. You have a hard quiz every single week of class. Do not take her, she has a very bad attitude.
Wimmy!!! I got a B in her class. Hard tests and quizzes but just do all your work and you'll average out to a B
If you don't really care about your gpa and just want to pass stats than take her because 95% of the class received Bs and Cs. Hard tests but if you do your homework you will average out to a C. Don't waste time doing extra credit, won't make difference.
Honestly not a hard class if you put the effort in. i did all the homework and studied for the test and ended up just fine. she gives you all the extra credit in the world. ended up with a 89.7 with the extra credit. and shes a down to earth teacher
You can't go wrong in her class. Simple math, just plug in the numbers for the formulas which you dont have to memorize. Loads of extra credit and barely any homework. Really nice and fun teacher. Great stories. Makes stats super easy. Quiz every week, not hard though at all. No studying if you just go to class and pay loose attention.
Must have a general understanding of math to do well. All test and quizzes are on the lectures and not on the book. very little homework from the book and a good amount of extra credit. very down to earth prof. she very passionate about stats and uses real life situation to explain her passion. super sweet and understanding and she will even write
Wonderful teacher. There is no doubt she cares about the students and wants them to succeed. I wish there were more teachers who care as mush as she does. Getting an education would come easier for all of us.
Shes really doing her best to teach, but has a hard time teaching the information to students. Everyone around me told me they were failing as well. She really does try, but shes just another example of a teacher doesnt care about low scores. A low score to her means its your fault and no one elses.
LOVE HER! Stats is hard regardless of who teaches it. She is very compassionate and helpful if you just stay in the class and show up. Don't drop it.
Carmen is a wonderful teacher and human being. Loved the class. She is HOOD! and makes Stats as fun as it can be. Don't drop her. Spots fill FAST.
She is a passionate, hood,and funny, teacher. Not a lot of work: the h.w from the back of the book,class work, and 2 projects. Willingly gives e.c, she wants you to pass. Her lectures are ehh but funny. she is no help out of class. Does not respond to emails. I'd suggest a tutor to keep up because you're not going to understand after the lecture.
I hate math, let me just say that first and foremost. Stats starts out easy and just gets harder. She will explain it to you as much as possible in the time that she has during class. She also has office hours, and we had a day off where she just sat in the class and helped me understand it. I thought I would never get it, but thanks to her I did!
I absolutely loved her class! tough, lengthy, tedious subject and she gives you PLENTY of practice and extra credit. She strives for you to understand and apply the work. shes super patient and super helpful. I really benefited!
Horrible teacher! doesn't know what she is teaching. many students are failing her class and she tried to do a lot of extra credit so she doesn't fail as a teacher. don't take her! not worth it!
The class is tough but if you show up, DO HOMEWORK, try and COMMUNICATE with her when struggling then you will be fine. She is a good professor and she does care about her students. She just doesn't deal with BS. Come ready to work, but she will help you. I would take the class. I've taken STATS twice before and she's the best I had.
First course i have ever taken. Most inspirational person i have ever met. Really helped me choosing a major. Take her for psych only
She is a wonderful, caring and hood teacher. Gives loads of hw and classwork but its all reasonable. Easy to get an A if you actually do sht. Very reasonable as in she won't test you on things that she hasn't taught you, given you classwork and hw on. Stats itself is very tedious but she makes lectures bearable.
- One of the best professors I've ever had. - She is smart and well-rounded - Approachable - She is effectively adaptable - She is hilarious and nice even on stressful days - She is inspirational, nonjudgmental - She encourages you to do your best; is not there to intentionally hold you back - humble, yet confident - TAKE HER
Probably the best professor I've ever had. She cares so much about each and every one of her students and genuinely wants to see us do well in class and in life. She is so passionate about statistics and regularly demonstrates how we can apply it to our daily lives. So funny, kind, and helpful in all aspects. I would recommend her to anyone I know!
She's a pretty funny. Math is my weakest subject & as long as you DO THE WORK & STUDY HARD you'll pass. Doesn't post grades so you don't really know your grade until it's submitted, but she comes in clutch at the end. Taught very good life lessons. Hard to reach outside of class. Some things you need to self teach, but overall, she's on your side.
Super unorganized. I took her Spring 2017 class and she didn't give us our grades until almost a month after class was over! Never replies to emails. Never gives homework back nor does she input the grades on canvas. Showed up 30 mins late for our final exam! Lectures are unclear and confusing. Nice lady but bad teacher.
I took Professor Wimsatt for Psych 1 and she is one of my favorite professor's I've had at Pierce. Although she is a little unorganized, you will learn a lot during her class. Lecture is never boring, and as long as you do your work you will get a good grade. Plus she's a super interesting person, and has a cool story. I would suggest taking her.
Prof. Wimsatt is a very unorganized teacher. She had an original schedule planned in the syllabus but she ended up changing the due dates on everything. Also, she has long and boring lectures.
She is very helpful but is short on time so make appointments.
I think she does her best to help students. If you want to work hard you can pass and understand statistics, a little.
Statistics is not an easy class but Professor Wimsatt will help you through it. Her lectures are clear and thorough. Of course you must read the text book and do the work or else you're never gonna pass. She's a good teacher and hilarious as well. To top it off she offers several xtra credit so take advantage.
stats might seem intimidating @ first but once u understand the method of each test, its practically the same method for any problem she gives u. Quizzes are worth a lot so study for them! Reading is mandatory. If u miss a single class you ultimately jeopardize your grade. Just b serious & show her u care. Easy midterm & final- if u do all the work
She is cool. Willing to help . Stat is just a hard subject .. she care for students
Took Stats twice and dropped the classes before W since I was failing. This Professor is the real Stats Professor you want. She motivated me to study it, participate, and help others pass the course. She is very understanding toward students and will go out of her way to help and will help you understand the theory before moving forward.
I took this class in the Spring. She's very funny and helpful if you don't understand the concepts. Ask for help she will stay after class and go over the material if your struggling. Will set up weekend tutoring however, requires a certain number of persons willing to attend for her to met up. Don't drop she give lots of extra credit.
Professor Wimsatt is by far the most caring professor I have ever had. She did not want any student to not pass her class and went out of her way to help everyone. She gives a lot of extra credit which is very helpful for those that may mess up on an exam here and there. She is funny and extremely helpful. You'll pass this class if you show up.
She canceled our class more times than actually attended. Super unorganized, said she would be using canvas often and post lectures, which she never did. Extended the class a week over the intended deadline. Never accessible outside of class, doesn't reply to emails, if she does its weeks later. Learned nothing from this course, very disappointed.
I was definatley not satisfied with how this class went. I took this class expecting for it to be organized but it wasn't. We had class cancelled multiple times and often times it was right before class started. She never responded to any of my emails. She promises to post on canvas but never does. Class is over, grade isnt even posted yet :*)
This class is an extremely difficult subject for most no matter what professor you have. Professor Wimsatt teaches the concepts and formulas extremely well and clear. She sets clear expectations and gives many chances to retry and submit concepts for partial credit. She doesn't put up with nonsense so if you don't pass it is your lack of effort.
I don't particularly like how this online class was. She has specific times when you have to be online to turn in an assignment. She doesn't post assignments or grades until very late. And the longer you're in the class, the more homework you're given. We started off with two assignments a week. We're up to 5 now.
It's the worst class in my whole life. Really. She shouldn't be teaching online and never follows through w feedback, 6 weeks to grade a test. Class was very disorganized, kept shifting.. I'm a good student but found it very hard to stay on track w readings 80 plus pages per week. Frustrated from week 3 to 16. Hard subject , take a different person
She does not answer emails so show up to class. Some assignments were given and turned in during class so do not try and miss this class. Overall, her teaching style is easy and is there to help you succeed. It is very hard to not get an A in this class.
I took professor Wimsatt this last fall, and was hesitant because like many math is not my favorite subject, but I am so glad that I decided to take stats with her because she made the work clear and took her time to have you understand. Not to mention she gives you extra credit, and offers group study sessions before every exam.
Daily quizzes every class. If you don't take notes during class you'll be lost because she doesn't post the PowerPoint's on Canvas like she says she will. Even when taking notes you'll go to do the 40+ problems of homework you're assigned and find things there that wont be in your notes. Won't take again.
Worst professor I have ever taken in my life. She never responds to emails. Always made the class stay well beyond the actual hours of the class. Was never helpful with any of my questions. DO YOURSELF A HUGE FAVOR AND DO NOT TAKE HER. YOU WILL THANK ME LATER.
Professor Wimsatt is one of the most caring professors I have had. She is the real deal. She won't hold your hand but she will make sure you understand a concept. Stats is not an easy class! Lots of homework, but it's good practice, do it! Lots of extra credit, I suggest you do it all.
Professor Wimsatt, is a bit spontaneous with class organization but she really cares about students. Show her that you are putting in the effort and she will gladly assist you. Its a lot of material but she focuses on your research topic and writing. I took her class online and and got an A. Do the discussions and turn in papers on time.
Really enjoyed her class, it was kind of hard but she was super nice and was there for any students who did not understand. She even took the time to speak to us individually about our research papers to help out.
She was the absolute worst teacher I have had the experience learning from. She is unreachable outside of class. She canceled around half of the 16 classes we should have met for. She would cancel less than 20 minutes before class started. She took the entire semester to grade everything and she is not understanding of personal situations.
She is the most disorganized Professor I've ever seen. Instructions and assignments were so unclear. The due dates were different everywhere. I emailed her so many times about issues and she never answered. If she did answer she wouldn't help with anything. She can't use Canvas right and wouldn't fix all the issues and just shrugged it off. Awful.
TheWORSTprofessor I have ever taken I emailed her in March+times since NEVER replied back it is May Wrong due dates students told her she was bad went 2 weeks without hearing from her she told usthat emailing her was unnecessary cuz it didn't have any questions+we should be thankful that sherecords lectures because not her job to do for online clas
Professor does not prepare for lectures, never answers emails, never follows thru on statements she makes in class. Very last minute. This professor should be fired! Due to lack of preparation, had to individually help and go around room during 3 hour, once a week class. WORST PROFESSOR EVER!!! Never graded 5 out of 22 assignments. PROCRASTINATOR!
She's one of the most caring teachers out there. Lectures are clear&concise, homework actually helps & tests are fair. Holds study sessions outside business hours so everyone has a chance to attend. She just goes the extra mile. So don't be an entitled brat, do your work & you'll learn so much. It's refreshing to have a genuinely kind professor.
Prof. Wimsatt really cares and her lectures are really clear. If you go to office hours, she really helps out a lot! I didn't think I was going to pass, but her help got me to an A!
Prof. Wimsatt is so caring and works really hard to make sure all her students do well. This was my last class before transfer and I am so glad I took it with her! She is so understanding and supportive.
Professor Wimsatt is very clear and caring. She really wants you to succeed and takes the time to explain all the concepts and she works WITH you to make sure you finish the final project. I personally never had a problem getting a hold of her. Assignments were graded fairly and helped me understand research.
Prof. Wimsatt is incredibly caring and supportive in this class. She is understanding and a really good teacher. I recommend her!
Professor can be disorganized, but is generally helpful if you engage. The class is challenging but manageable with the textbook and study aids like Unstuck ai. Worth taking if you put in the effort.
Professor Wimsatt is an incredible professor. She is always available to answer questions. The workload is manageable and she breaks down the concepts really well. If you need to take research methods, this is a the instructor to take.
she does NOT grade any work or respond to any emails Im in a class discord and we all have the same issue w/ her she lives in her own world
Professor Wimsatt is very caring and understanding and will work with you to help you understand the material. She is super helpful in office hours and not a tough grader. I learned a lot.
Professor Wimsatt will not give you any feedback, yet will tell you to turn in the paper with the edits she "suggests." She rarely responds to emails and grades assignments weeks after they were due. How am I supposed to turn in a REVISED COPY when the professor still hasn't graded my first, second, or final draft...I don't recommend this class.
Take psych074 with Professor Wimsatt!! She is the most amazing professor I've had within my two years at pierce. I would take her class again if I could. She is so inspirational, kind hearted, and easy going. She will not let you fail, she is leading you through every step of the way. Impossible to fail the class if you do the work! She's the best!
Prof. Wimsatt is a great professor and I had a wonderful experience in her class! Her lectures are crystal clear and I learned a lot. Stay on top of the assignments and go to office hours, it's an easy A.
Easiest class ever. But, getting in touch with this professor is IMPOSSIBLE. I thought because having it virtual and asynchronous, there would be a little more urgency to answer emails, but no. I had a couple of questions and went to the zoom office hours as listed on the syllabus yet she didn't even create a meeting for it (it was week 3 out of 5)
Prof. Wimsatt is a great professor. She is really clear in lecture and the homework and tests were very easy.
I definitely recommend this professor. The class itself does require a lot of time and concentration, as it is a research methodology class. The professor makes it very easy to complete the assignments. She takes everything step by step and is very understanding. The class requires a presentation as the final project, along with a final paper.
The course content was manageable, but communication was a major issue—emails went unanswered all semester. Her grading was slow and often inaccurate, with points docked for her own mistakes. Instructions were frequently wrong, and weekly modules were opened late on multiple occasions. I would not recommend this professor even in the slightest.
I was really nervous to take research methods but prof. Wimsatt made it easy. She works with you until you understand all the material. She really cares and takes the time to make sure you succeed.
I loved this class! Prof. Wimsatt is a great instructor and I learned a lot. I was nervous to take Research Methods, but she was really caring and supportive. Definitely recommend this teacher!
Prof. Wimsatt is incredibly sweet and caring. She is available outside to class to work with you and breakdown all the class material. She makes class interesting and statistics totally understandable. She's great!
What can I say? Prof. Wimsatt is the best. The class was easy, as long as you showed up and followed directions. Just a really good experience.
She can be a bit meh when grading, and takes a bit to respond. Her class was fairly easy and you should be able to pass with no issues.
SO EASY I haven't finished the semester yet but she is my favorite professor so far. She is extremley helpful and her lectures are so understanding. If I could I would take this class again.
Her lectures consisted of both the curriculum, but she made sure to also give life advice! It was very helpful and aided me in deciding how I take my education going forward. Very friendly, considerate, and the class wasn't hard to pass! Slightly inconsistent with communication but it did not majorly affect the grade.
I am NOT a Statistics fan. However, Prof. Wimsatt is a v caring teacher. She explains concepts until you truly understand. Made lectures interesting & held study sessions at later hours for students who worked full time. Went out of her way to be helpful. Yes a bit slow w email replies but will eventually. I really enjoyed her class & def recommend
