The class provides you a lot of opportunity to slack- you only have to complete about 75% of all the online hw. If you keep up with the assignments and quizzes, then this is an easy A. The questions on the test are straight forward and you are able to earn lots of extra credit. Plus Loeb is a engaging teacher. One of my best classes at UNC.

Professor Loeb is hilarious! She rarely checks attendance, but you won't want to miss class anyway. The homework is pretty easy even though there's a lot of it. She gives extra credit, and her tests are not as hard as she makes them seem. I would definitely recommend this professor!

This was a super hard class for me for some reason. I think it had alot to do with the fact that psychology wasn't nearly has interesting as I thought it was going to be. Dr. Loeb is a good teacher, however, nothing about her class is easy. There is a lot of material that you cover; anything in the book is free game.

Dr. Loeb is an very skilled lecturer, and her class is more than fair. This class required the least amount of work of any that I took this semester, and I still feel that I learned a lot. I wasn't particularly interested in psychology before the class, and can't say that I am more so now. But if you need 3 easy credit hours in a science class...

I rarely attended. If you answer a question in class you get some bonus points to final grade. Also gave 10% exam bonus (exams count as 90% of grade). A lot of people find the class hard, I think it depends what you are used to. Taking mostly sciences I didn't think it was that hard to make a good grade. Read the book, and study before tests.

Loeb is the best... easiest class every and she gives lots of bonus for coming to class and doing surveys. Tests are a little challenging sometimes, but it is really easy to do well (and she drops 1). The assignments are weekly, but only 6 need to be completed. Plus, at least 10 point bonus added to final. Definitely recommend!

Really just an all around strange person.

Dr. Loeb is very nice and generous with grades. Her funny anecdotes seem initially engaging, but eventually became corny and irrelevant. Exams weren't a great indicator of core content mastery, more regurgitation of niche class examples. Class is run by TAs, which can lead to confusion. Overall, a decent experience with a few hiccups along the way.

I'm currently taking this professor for my triple I class "Death and Dying" and I just have to say I'm disappointed and frustrated. First, this Triple I is easily one of the hardest ones out there. Second, her parts of the exam are all trick questions. Lastly, she expects you to know every little detail from every single reading. TLDR: don't take.

She is hilarious. It's a big class but she still is able to get people to engage through bonus points and her analogies are memorable. This class is hard though, it is a weed out class, it has SO much information, it has a 600 page textbook you'll need to read, and the tests are hard. It's a good class and Loeb is great but be prepared to work hard

Was not understanding of student's circumstances, gave a 0 for my exams despite having a legitimate excuse, which was heartbreaking, especially since she's a psychology proffessor. Lectures were great though.

Prof. Loeb is great and if you need to take Psyc 101, I'd recommend taking her. Her exams are really easy (I think our class average was above 80 every time) and she gives out extra credit for participation. The textbook is a lot of reading and she doesn't record lectures, so you're out of luck if you're sick.

Such funny and memorable lectures. A lot of textbook reading so be prepared for that. If you take good notes probably will take 2-3+ hours per chapter. Exams were pretty difficult, but she does give you a broad study guide.

lectures are engaging and build off of the textbook. Read the textbook and take quiz at home before class. Participation is taken every day, but three are dropped. Also, extra credit oppurtunities just for talking in class and she gave us a 10% curve on the final. Would highly recommend for a freshman.

3 exams, she drops the lowest one. 1 non-cumulative final. Not a great lecturer, but not bad. Quizzes at home over each chapter (best 8/11). Participation assignment each class, but you have 3/4 absences. Particpation Pool required, which was annoying but is for all psyc classes.

Great professor! Recommend showing up to the lectures as you'll learn most everything you need to know just by listening. Spend a few hours studying before each exam, and you'll be fine. Great class for anyone studying or interested in psychology.

Loeb's exams are fair. However, not an understanding professor with regard to class policies and attendance.

Prof. Loeb is by far my favorite teacher I've had! This class is solely lecture-based, but she is incredibly engaging and hilarious. I genuinely enjoyed every class and felt like the time flew by. Easy A if you show up and pay attention since she covers everything you need in class. Honestly never even opened the textbook but did very well.

Actually enjoyed going to class! Really flexible grading - allows drops for every grading category, including exam. Attendance assignments give you lots of credit just for showing up! Tons of extra credit chances. Do the work and you'll get a decent grade.

The class was fine in terms of difficulty. You have to study for the tests alot but u do have a lot of opportunities for extra credit. It is not hard to get an A in the class what so ever. The lectures however are so boring but decent class to take

Absolutely loved Professor Loeb. Even for a class with 350 students, lecture was extremely engaging and hilarious. Midterms were very easy and logical. While there was no curve on midterms like previous sections, we did receive a generous curve for the final (not cumulative and very easy).

Dr. Loeb is hilarious and every class was engaging! The class is very textbook and lecture heavy. Spread the textbook readings out and write down the examples she gives in class as they are helpful when memorizing for tests later on. Great class!!
