Comprehensive test reviews and tests are multiple choice. If attendance drops, starts giving minute details in class that MUST be included in the exercises. One tiny ommission will equal a zero for an exercise (which is ridiculous). However, good grade still possible with minimal attendance.

Ive taken several online Psych courses with Clarke and she lays out what she expects in the class outline. Only thing is she doesn't post grades in a decent amount of time. You need to read the textbook and turn in assignments on time to get a good grade. Always offers extra credit, which does help if you don't do well on exams.

I took her for 351 and 363. Tremendous amounts of work! Tests are challenging. She expects every student to follow directions the way the syllabus states word for word, yet responds to e-mails with a huge attitude.

EASY class! attempt on everything and she gives a 100(aside from the tests). I actually finished everything for her class aside from the tests back in early Feb. If you have a heavy course load and need something easy take her. Bad part is it's so lax that you don't try so you have to force yourself to learn the material(if you care about that)

So, her class is pretty much an Easy A. If you attempt on assignments you get an A. However, her test for this class are not as easy. I've taken her other classes and was fine, but this class I'm not sure where some of these questions come from. Maybe I got unlucky with the random generator from the test bank.
