Took intro to developmental science, I liked her, the lectures were really clear and she followed the book pretty well. Exams straightforward as long as you've gone to lecture and read. Gives out thorough study guides before exams.

Go to class and stay on top of your notes and you will have no problem. Class is not curved though.

Nice prof.Lectures very clear, sticks to the book really well.Exams are straightforward.As long as you pay attention in lecture and READ the textbook, Intro to Dev. Science is an easy A.

Lectures are boring and most days- a big waste of time as long as you read the book. She offers extra credit in lecture. She sticks to the book and exams are simple if you know your stuff. Very easy, you just have to read the book, a lot of it in common sense though.

I liked Dr. Gros-Louis. Lectures were boring, but they are necessary to go to. She follows the book closely.

I enjoyed this class for the most part. She is good lecturer (sometimes goes a little fast) but overall I enjoyed listening. I found the material to be interesting. Exams aren't too bad, do require a couple hours of studying but if you attend lecture and study from those notes and read the book you'll be fine!

I thought the lectures were very straight forward and concise for the amount of material covered. Though she went through fast, she was very clear on what she was going to test on, and as long as you do the reading you should be fine. Discussion however, is pointless except for quizzes. Easy class.

Good teacher, fair tests... recommended

Great class. The tests are easy and she presents almost anything you would ever need to know in lecture. Complemented with the basic terms out of the book, its easy. Discussion is pretty much useless, and the papers are stupid, but getting an A in the class is easy.

Good professor, lectures are sometimes boring. But as long as you pay attention in lecture you will do well on the exams.

Her lectures are incredibly boring, but she gives extra credit if you show up (clicker questions). The tests are super easy as long as you attend class and maybe study for a few hours. Boring class, but easy.

Her class is boring and lectures are all over the place. She is nice. She gives lots of extra credit. Must read book to do well on tests.

Tests are hard but she gives a lot of extra credit

Easier material, lecture heavy. Listen to what she says in lecture 80% of that is on exams. Easy A.

gonna be completely honest & admit that i made to to maybe 3 lectures all semester. all of the material is in the book. take notes on the readings and afterwards take notes on the slides. Havent gotten lower than a 95% on an exam yet! Shes also really nice & funny. Shes cool, I'd just rather teach myself out of laziness lol

Dr. Gros-Louis is caring and very helpful. She always starts the class with memes and uses meaningful experiments to get her point across. He exams are straight forward and you don't have to read to do well. Go to class and use office hours. Getting to know Julie is a huge plus in taking her class too.

I took Dev Psych just to have another class with Julie. Her lectures are sometimes disorganized, but she does a great job of explaining what's expected of her students. She really cares about your success and will take extra time to work with you until you understand the topics. I'd take another class with her if I could, she's a real gem.

Prof Gros-Louis is such a sweet and caring person, but this class was very hard in my opinion. There were 4 exams, discussion boards every week that included a quiz or assignment, you were expected to read a chapter every week as well as attend lecture and there's a paper as well that's worth quite a bit of points.

I love Prof. G-L! Her lectures can sometimes seem disorganized, and you really need to read the textbook and research articles to do well on exams. However, course content got way more interesting (and easier IMO) as it went along, and Prof. G-L stands out as one of the most caring professors on campus. Would recommend!

I had Julie for Advanced Psych for the MCAT and I LOVED the class and her. Material was not hard to learn and most people did well on exams. Attendance is not mandatory but there are clicker questions. The book is online. The exams were pretty chill and didn't cover a ton of information. She is so caring and will go out of her way to meet with you!

I took abnormal psych and it was pretty easy. The class is straightforward, expectations are clear. I would look at the lectures but if you read the book and take good notes then its not super necessary. There are a couple extra credit assignments to help you if you do bad on a test.

I liked her lectures (even w/ online!) & she seems like such a sweet woman. Had to read the textbook for the exams but she gave a studyguide w/ topics to focus on & sample q's. The q's at the end of each chapter in the book were helpful too��Had multiple extra credit opps & little assignments for disc that were easy points to help boost your grade

Gros-Louis is a wonderful human being! She takes the time to personally connect and get to know her students. There is quite a bit of work in the class, but she tries her best to space it out. Gros-Louis is easily one of my favorite professors!

Shes nice and lectures are interesting. they are straight from the textbook so you dont really have to read. sometimes she gets a little off track and then u have to watch the lectures on your own time which can be annoying. exams were online and open note, so if you took good notes during lecture you are gold

This class was easy, the only problem was the 70 question exams with a lot of trick questions. You should definitely read the book if you want to get a good score on the exams. Overall, not that demanding of a class. Just study for the exams.

I love this Prof. Great lectures, and also great Teaching Assistants who teach your discussion section. 2 papers, which the TAs grade, just follow the directions and you'll be fine. Not graded on a curve, it is criterion-referenced grading. Very organized. Everything else has been addressed by other reviewers. Online lectures, in-person discussion.

She is a nice lady and I can tell she is passionate about what she teaches. However, you NEED to read the textbook. She will talk about most topics in lecture, but she mainly brushes over concepts, so to get that deeper understanding, reading and taking notes on your own time is needed. Tests are open note, but don't rely on that. STUDY FOR THEM.

Highly recommend adv psy for pre-med if you are taking MCAT soon!! Genuinely cares about students. I thought her exams were too difficult, and not really focused on content covered, but still manageable. Must read textbook to do well on exams, but book is actually interesting. EC available. Lecture not recorded and says stuff not on slides.

the exams are worded horribly. she always shows a tiktok at the beginning of class. loves to blab

Julie is a kind person and her love for psychology shows through her enthusiasm in lectures. While she is nice, the exams are very hard. You can review and study the lecture slides as much as you want, but the tests are always more difficult because you have to apply the information you studied. She also gives multiple options for extra credit.

The tests are incredibly thorough. Things only described in lectures are often added to the tests, meaning if you miss a lecture even if you go to discussion, do the reading, and check the PowerPoint you'll still be missing information. That being said, Julie cares very much about her course and tries very hard to connect with her students.

to be successful, go to the lectures, and basically make a transcript of everything she says, but you need to be able to pick out the right pieces for what you think you'll need to know for the exams, which can be tricky. Also, going to discussion is very important for this course. Overall, this teacher is cool and cares about what she does.

This class was a so easy, except for the exams. Attendance isn't graded at all and lecture slides are posted online. However, a lot of people complained about the hard exams, but if you take good book notes and take good notes in lecture (on what she's saying vs what's on the slides) you'll do just fine. Would definitely recommend this professor.

I really liked Professor Gros- Louis. Her tests are online which was really nice and open book. They line up with lectures really well but make sure you either go to the lecture or read the book because she expands off the slides and you'll need to know that stuff for the test. The tests were long but not bad at all.

Good lecturer, would show tik toks at the beginning of every lecture to brighten the mood. Some people didn't like it but I did :) My discussion had attendance taken, but not sure if everyone did. You have to go do psych studies on your own time to pass the class, but they aren't hard at all. Exams were online and open book/open note but difficult

I liked Prof. Gros- Louis but PSY:1001 is a horrible course- she is super sweet and loves to have fun convos with everyone during lectures- Everybody in that class took psych classes in high school but got terrible grades from this course- all exams are just memorizing 200 words of vocab, it sucks- TAKE GROS-LOUIS BUT DEF NOT PSY:1001!!

For everyone hating you should be thankful that she curves every test to average 80%. Prof was really nice and has good lectures. I liked the tiktoks at the beginning of each lecture. Discussion is a must go if you want to have any idea of whats going on tho. Read the book, dont forget to do the inquizitives, and go to lecture and youll be fine.

Great lecturer, but my only issue was the course itself. My most difficult intro level class and for what... Discussion was literally lecture 2.0 and falling behind is so easy. Make sure you actually read the book because its the most useful tool in this vocab heavy class.

good professor, always taught clearly and was easy to understand, also laid put clear expectations for what to know for exams. supplied good practice for exams with practices that were only graded on completion, so basically free points.

I had Julie for elementary psych and developmental science. I cannot stress it enough when I say that she is by far my favorite professor. You can tell that she cares so much about her students and she wants to see them do well. She is very clear on what you need to do in order to get a grade that you desire. TOTALLY RECOMMEND!!

Super lenient about assignments and very caring. lectures were a little bit boring but she made up for it by showing us tiktoks about her dogs

Sometimes she gets a little distracted during lecture and her lecture slides can be confusing so going to class is definitley mandatory but she offers easyyy extra credit and is super caring

Lectures aren't required but definitely help. Inquizatives are graded on completion and are relatively quick. Would recommend.

She would go on tangents during lecture, but was very specific on which material would be tested and explains things nicely. The tangents are meant to help you understand better, but I would understand if someone said they were boring. Easy class, but lots of content to digest, don't take if you don't need to.

She is nice overall, just a difficult class. The readings were the absolute worst because of how lengthy each chapter is. Because lecture is only 2x/week, there is a lot of content in each lecture so she only gives you the basic understanding of it. To truly grasp a topic, I had to read the textbook. I found flashcards to be very helpful for studyi

Dr. Gros-Louis is a very compassionate professor and truly wants you to do well. Her elementary psych course isn't too difficult if you just go to lecture and listen. Discussion is more of a second lecture but it isn't very content heavy. She is also reasonable and adjusts things throughout the course as needed.

This is a pretty easy class if you put minimal effort into it. Skim the textbook and do inquizitives and you're pretty much set. Attendance is required in discussions, but we were often let out early.

Julie is a good lecturer who cares about the class. The discussions are pretty much worthless, but attendance is mandatory (discussion is lecture pt. 2). The tests aren't the easiest, but if you study ahead of time, you will be fine.

I liked her class, I thought it was interesting. My TA (Paige Harlan) was amazing and helpful. I will note that she is hard to reach via email, but if you go up to her in class she is super nice. I recommend reading the textbook along with the notes, since some of the test questions are on topics that weren't discussed in lecture

Gros-Louis seems like a very nice woman who genuinely cares about her students and what she is teaching. The exams were lowkey hard, but they are heavily curved and many other opportunities are given to raise your grade. You get 2 quizzes dropped and can miss discussion twice without losing points. 2 essays assigned that were super easy.

She is a really nice person, her class can be fun but the tests are worded so weirdly and so many people fail them its crazy. there are only 2 writing assignments that are graded easy. the tests are the only really hard thing but lecture is not mandatory and she gives extra credit before each exam, and curves them

Julie seems like a very nice woman, her slides are a little bit all over the place, and she tends to go off track in class. If you want to do well in this class, I would recommend doing extra notes outside of class from the textbook. She is very clear that everything is fair game on the exams. The essays and discussions were very easy too.
