The 1st day she said that no question was stupid, that only the prof was stupid if she doesnt ans. it. Now she rolls her eyes and huffs & puffs if she is asks something she thinks they should know. Very immature attitude for an instructor
First days I was happy b/c she is down to earth and clear. Good choice for stats, but then I start to notice she seems to get moody when asked questions and towards end of class likes to rush through. Makes you feel on edge with her.
shes very nice- really takes her time out to help anyone and makes meetings. very lenient marker. her tests are very fair if you study you do well.
She is a great teacher. Very helpful, makes statistics understandable. She is a Drstudent and has a baby at home and still took time out to give extra help. I wish she gave more classes so I could take her again for something else next semester.
The class is hard but she makes it easy. Always looking to make extra time to help us. Awesome teacher. Tests are easy if you study. Do your HW or you will be lost.
She is an easy one for this, and she is nice, however after taking 213 I realized Kathy didnt offer good explanations for all the stats. She jus went though em kinda fast. She teaches easier than alot, since its hard course, but check out your other choices if u want to know what u are doing.
Kathie is a nice teacher, she is a fair grader and she always make time for her students. I am glad that I took this class with her. Just do your home work and also she gives alot of handouts.she makes an effort for her students to learn, the material and her exams are easy once you study her notes.
i suck at math!!! so when i walked into this class i thought that i would fail it. however she is a good teacher who makes time for her students. she gives out a lot of handouts which are helpful. some of her quizes are open book and so was the final. she is a fair grader.
Great teacher, explains everything vey well and gives you all the time you need after class. Tests are very fair, always with extra credit. (got an A+)
she's nice but only to the kiss up's. did not give me the grade i deserved. i did not like her not recommended
no one will ever meet a professor who does as much work as kathy. She makes up so many formula sheets, and helpful hint sheets. she goes way above anything qc would require in a proffessor. very available to her students. i reccomend her to everyone
Kathy is extremely dedicated and the best teacher you will have at QC.She is approachable and will stay after class to make sure you understand all the material.Kathy likes students to be prepared and to participate and she reflects that in your grade. Try not to miss class and do the homework. It is a very hard class but she makes it interesting.
First, she is very helpful to ALL students. She wont leave until you understand the material, and she is one of the best professors at QC. Second, I know for a fact, that the so called "kiss-up" got the grade that his test scores JUSTLY gave him. She is a VERY VERY fair professor and gives everyone an equal and enormous chance to succeed.
She is soo nice and helpful to anyone in need. Clears up any questions as best she could. She actually cares and it shows:)
Kathie is hands down the most dedicated teacher i have ever known. The time and effort she puts into teaching is above and beyond what is expected for any teacher. She breaks things down so that it is easy to understand. She is willing and available to work with you if you have any problems. Highly recommended.
Professor Kathie is the best!!! she truley cares about her students and is a very lenient grader... shes a student herself so she knows how we feel! she gives a lot of extra points if you participate and is the friendliest teacher ever!!! I LOVED HER and hope to take her again!!! Highly recommended!
The best professor ever.I hate math but she made things so simple if you pay attention in her class and do some of the homework you will get a good grade. She is extremely helpfull and down to earth. Will go out of her way to make things clear for each and every student.
you will not find a more dedicated teacher in QC. she truly cares for each and every student, and really helps you get your grade up. show up to class and take good notes and you will do fine on the exams.
Great Professor! If you get a chance take her, you will really learn a lot. She puts a lot of time into the class and is a very helpful and dedicated teacher. She wants her students to succeed. One of the best psychology teachers Queens College has. Good Luck! :)
kathie is a really nice person.she cares about her students on both the personal and professional levels and wants them to succeed in all they do.she respects hard work and those who put in the effort will get results.she is smart and has a cute personality which makes the class both interesting and fun.my only regret is not haven taken her sooner!
One of the best professors in QC. She helps her students in every way that she can.
She cares more about your grade than you do. Nice is an understatement. Execellent teacher. Could not ask for more when you walk into a classroom.
First off, Kathie is the sweetest professor on earth. I've taken her before and she is awesome. There is a work load in this class but she gives you plenty of time to do it. Study from the text book and highlight the articles. That really helps when you write the papers. She is an amazing professor. I still speak to her!
She is one of the greatest teachers QC could have. She is more than willing to work with you to get you the grade you need/want, but you must work for it. She is always willing to help you even outside of classwork. I've had her a couple of times and would take her again and again. Even her jokes are fun but not always that funny :).
By far the BEST professor I have had at QC (and I'm a senior)! Her lectures are clear, she emphasizes main points, and provides analysis of coursework (experiments, articles). Exams are very fair and students have many opportunities to achieve desired grade. Coursework is heavy but manageable and USEFUL! Highly recommended!!! A++++!
An exceptional professor, but even a better human being.
Super teacher. I took this class over winter semester and I have a short attention span and still did well in the course. She makes the dryest material at least bearable. I'm sure that with any other professor I would have been napping all class.
She is extremely helpful. Honestly, she gives students plenty of opportunities to improve their grades. She is so approachable and makes herself available to students with no problem. I only have one advise, study hard for her tests because they are not easy.
WOW! One of the best psychology professors I've ever had throught my college yrs! (Junior). She is extremely helpful and very, very understanding. If you work hard and attend class you will deff get higher than a B!
She is a really great professor. You can't expect 213 to be a breeze but she was there for us and give great feedback. She gives u chances to improve your work. I would definitely recommend her, once u take her advanced is a breeze
She is wonderful! One of the best professors I have ever had. You know she really cares about what she is doing, and she cares about all of her students. She wants all of her students to pass! She gives plenty of opportunities to rewrite papers and to do well on exams. She takes a huge amount of her time to help students. I absolutely recommend her
One of the best professors I've ever had in QC ( going on Senior yr). She is amazingly great, helpful, understanding and most all, a great human being. She gives students a whole lot of chances to do well in her class tests and PAPERS! I absolutely loved her!
You cant expect Exp.psych to be easy especially in the summer but she made the class very manageable. She was a great professor, though she was far from easy. If you stay on top of this class, no one should have any issues. Overall, great professor!
The class is a lot of work, but she walks you thru every step! Wouldn't of passed or even been able to write my first psych paper if it wasn't for her help! Recommended!
Shes very intelligent but an awful teacher! Cant relate to a student not doing well in her class
Dr. M is amazing!! Her lectures are crystal clear, tests are easy, she is so sweet, and a pleasure to have as a teacher. Tests are 2 parts: multiple choice is closed book, problems are open book and notes, which is GREAT! Definitely take her!!
AWSOME prof! Nice, easygoing & extremely helpful. Do your hw, take notes, & pay attention bc material gets lengthy. Always available for help & just a pleasure to have as a prof, im actually looking foward to taking her again. She also likes when students participates, hates late students and absences.
I absolutely adore this professor! She is obviously alented and intelligent, and knows how to teach. Her class is a breeze if you follow her guidelines and put the work in, she will reward you if she sees you are working hard! Take her i loved her!
Prof M. is AWESOME! Sweetest professor and willing to help her students in any way possible. My writing skills have definitely improved and this is due to Prof M. She is an amazing professor and even gives extra credit to boost your grade.
AMAZING professor! She is very helpful and dedicated to her students. She is so sweet and understanding. I am so happy I took 213w with Prof.M!
Took her for Psych 107 during summer session and received an A+. She is an amazing professor- very dedicated, knowledgable and teaches the material well. The course itself is difficult and you have to attend to understand the content and know which material you'll be tested on. Three exams, Aplia, and optional textbook hw. Best 107 prof!!
Amazing Professor. She is like having a loving mother teach the class. She knows everyone by name and honestly cares about her students. If you do the work there is no reason why you wouldn't do well in her class.
Very good professor. Explains very well. Gives extra-credit. Tests are extremely hard.
Dr. M was my professor for 107 also. Having her for 213W made my advanced experimental course a breeze and an easy A. She's a bit tough, but she does everything in her power to help you while also being very warm and welcoming. I HIGHLY recommend taking both 107 and 213W with her !
There is a reason I am taking Professor M for a second semester in a row. She genuinely loves teaching, but even more so she loves her students. She helps us with every step, and is always available to give us extra help when needed, and yet I still feel like I will come out of this course independent and with the skills to write a paper. TAKE HER!
Dr.M is an outstanding professor , you have to work hard for your grade. But she really loves to see her students do well. She's willing to help you outside the class . Test are hard but if you pay attention in class you'll do fine. Don't miss a class because you'll be lost. Aplia sucks really this is what i didn't like about the class.
She can be nice, but also very difficult as a person who came in not liking 107 she helped somewhat to make that better. However you either have to kiss up or put in alot of work outside of the classroom setting. I wouldn't recommend her to anyone I know and recommend someone more capable of teaching psych 107. Take her if you like, be careful
Her tests are very hard. They count as more than half of your final grade, she is nice but hard work.
to start off, this class is hard in general, she moves very fast, and her tests are very hard. She says they are fair, but they are only fair if you are able to master statistics to the best. If not, you won't do well. You have to know EVERYTHING extremely well in order to master her tests. She is a tough grader and will make you retake.
Honestly like any college course, the tougher it is the more you will eventually learn. This class itself is tough what did you expect 2+2 and you're done? No, participate, do the readings, practice on your own and you will be fine. She makes herself available to you when possible & responds to her emails with caring words. Just show your efforts!!
Although I suck at math, more professors of psych need to be more like Kathleen. I've tried two different stats professors after not doing well the first time and there is no one like her. If she is open during registration you're in luck. She cares a lot and actually WANTS to help. One of the best professors in the Psych department hands down.
Although she is a fair professor, as in she makes her work challenging, she genuinely wants you to understand and to pass her class. She is always willing to help, she is super funny and sweet. She is like a mom to her students. You really have to study and do the work. Do the aplia and go to lab. She likes people who try their best and she helps.
I was nervous about taking this class bc i suck at math but she is clear, and expects you to do your work because, you're in college duh. she says she's fair and she IS, and she really wants the best for her students. her grading is clear, and unlike other professors, she actually wants to build relationships which is nice. DO APLIA- really helps
explains everything in a confusing way, surprised and i don't know why she has good reviews. She's a nice person but she doesn't know how to teach
confused by these reviews.. this class is so confusing because She doesn't explain things step by step and her voice is wayy too monotone that it makes it difficult to pay attention to her. i wouldn't recommend this professor.. at all. shes nice but not good at teaching. take her if you don't mind spending most of your time in tutoring...
Simply try to avoid.
Professor is is SOOO sweet! She ALWAYS makes time for her students and loves teaching her material. Her grading is VERY fair and when she handed a paper back late, she gave us points! SOO nice of her! She is incredible, teaches the material very well and you will come out actually knowing your material! she even gives us notes and comments for pape
Really nice teacher. Loved the class. If you participate it really helps. She is very clear and knows her stuff. I would highly recommend.
This is a pretty tough class. There's a lab portion, hefty amount of homework, irritating, and 3 exams. The exams are very very tricky. The multiple choice makes you second guess all your answers, and the 2nd part of the test even though it's open book is difficult. She chooses the hardest material to put there. Don't recommend.
I expected a lot of writing for this class because it is a "W" class, but her quizzes are a bit too much. It should be understood that as students we are taking other classes besides her class. I do not recocommend, a 4 credit class is stressful as it is so enroll for a professor who is more sympathetic.
Hard class but professor makes even simple topics harder.
Offers extra credit but it doesn't help much especially if the class average is low. Her way of teaching is confusing to say the least. The lab is easier than the lecture because much of what needs to be done is through a computer. The aplia homework is so excessive, plus the homework covers topics she hasn't taught in class sometimes. Avoid!
This professor doesn't teach. This professor takes a somewhat hard topic and makes it seem like rocket science. I think that I'm doing pretty well in this class but I strongly feel that I could have gotten an A if I had learned the material the way they go over it in the lab!!! Don't take this professor unless you are willing to teach yourself!!
There's no doubt this class is tough especially if you're not good at math. It's just so confusing when we have to learn lecture material in lab. It's not fair to us because then we're confused and do bad on exams which are ridiculously hard. The M.C. questions make you think there are 2 or sometimes 3 answers. Do yourself a favor and avoid.
HARD CLASS, HARD PROFESSOR. Take a professor who simplifies and makes sure you understand the material.
Personally, I felt that this professor taught the lessons very well and was always willing to help people out when they needed it. Math is not my best subject by any means, but I think that if you show up to class frequently enough and take decent notes, you should be alright. Good luck!
Professor tries but doesn't relay information clearly. I was confused throughout the semester and had to read the book almost every class to understand what was going on. I regret taking this class. Lab part of class better than lecture.
Professor M says tests are fair but it doesn't seem so. She does curve but not enough that it affects the grade we originally got. She tries hard to be likable just wished she tried teaching it in a un-confusing way. Consider before taking this class.
Her multiple choice are like in another language and totally messed me up and made me lose important points for my tests. I feel that a powerpoint component to the class should be added in order to do well on the multiple choice. The information I needed for this part of the test wasn't even in the book and class notes were mostly on problems.
Honestly the best professor i've had at queens college. She gives a clear grading criteria. Pretty much show up, participate 2-3 times a class and at least TRY. Loves to make jokes, lectures were long but enjoyable. Def willing to help you if you're struggling. those who didn't like her simply did not show up, pay attention or even try ! TAKE HER!!
DO NOT TAKE HER! Before taking her, i was excited about her class bc there were some good reviews on this site, and from other classmates. They were all WRONG! First of all, she's says 1st day of class you need to catch up bc others will be annoyed if she has to slow down. WHO SAYS THAT?! Rushes and doesn't explain clearly, no review before exam.
As a person she is very kind hearted and really cares for her students, but as a professor she is extremely difficult to please. Very hard grader, you'll write a paper thinking you did great and get back a terrible grade.
She's an amazing person but very strict when it comes to this course. Papers are tough and exams are even tougher. MC are all over the place. Will grade your paper like middle school english teacher. She will make sure she corrects every is, an ,a, are. She's an awesome person but when it comes to this course it's better of taking other professor.
Professor Mangiapanello is a great person and excellent at the way she teaches. The course 213w is tough but guess what nothing easy is good !! Be willing to put the extra time in, go to her office hours, and just work hard. She guides the class through the papers and use all the resources. Just finished her 213w and am ready for 311 !
She's a great teacher and is always there for you, but if you need extra help, ask her, don't be shy. Pay attention in class, review the textbook in preparation for tests, and you will do fine. She is kind and considerate. People who usually show up, often do better than those who miss class a lot, so do come to class.
Prof. M is a very sweet person, and I think she's nice. However, she was not a very clear professor, and her tests were EXTREMELY difficult. The short answers themselves took a whole class to finish, and the multiple choice were tricky. The Aplia was excessive as well. Even though she was nice, I wouldn't take her again.
Don't take her.
She's super sweet and encouraging, made the class that much simpler with her coherence. I loved taking her, want to have her again!!!
This might sound really biased, but professor Mangiapanello is honestly my favorite professor. I have learned SO MUCH from her classes and she teaches extremely well. What makes her stand out from other professors is that she teaches well, grades fairly, and cares about our grades. This class is not an easy A but if you put in the work, it will be!
Professor Kathleen Mangiapanello is amazing! I'm not good at math and was dreading this class, but she is extremely organized, clear, and teaches you everything you need to know for the exams. She is a very fair grader, always makes jokes, friendly, and makes you feel comfortable in class even if you're a shy person. I definitely recommend her!
Dr. Mangiapanello is an amazing statistics professor. I had an amazing time in her class this semester. She really knows how to teach and always tries to help those who need it. She's also very funny. If you show up and pay attention, you'll get a guaranteed A. Even if you hate math, she'll make you like it a little bit more for stats.
I was looking forward to this class because a friend had taken this professor previously and had a good experience. With that being said, this professor was rude, nasty and could care less about her students. WORSE PROFESSOR I have ever had. Tests are hard and there is not enough time to finish. Consider a different professor.. Trust me.
By far one of the best instructors at QC. Ignore the bad reviews! She is amazing, best stats teacher to take. She makes sure her lectures are interesting and she always makes sure everyone is on the same track. Never felt confused at all. She also makes the effort to help others when they are struggling. Class was an easy A.
Currently in her lab for stats. Very nice but her attitude can take a 180 very quickly if you ask her questions before or after she is on the clock. Also, not enough time to complete lab exams. Considering just dropping the class and retaking it with someone else in the spring. Not what I expected at all. Never available during office hours.
This professor gave me a C-for the course and i was forced to retake this class for a better grade. I'm taking a different professor and i just want to note the difference! Kathleen makes stats so much more confusing than it has to be. My current professor is so clear and i just received 98 on my first exam. if only i never took Kathleen's class.
AWESOMEEEE PROFESSOR!!! REALLY easy class if you attend and participate. She made my 8am class exciting. This is a women who loves what she does and shows it in every class. I highly recommend her!
213w is not easy an easy course, it comes along with a lot of hard work. Professor M. is an amazing lecturer, she can give off a mean look but she is the most caring Professors I ever met at QC. I wanted to drop her class cause of the work load and papers , but if you put the work and effort she is there for you. She has a busy schedule so you would have to meet her at her office hours she is really good in explaining stuff.
Dr. M is one of the most amazing professor that teach at QC. Having 213w on a Sunday can be dreadful, I wanted to drop the class but Dr.M gave me the hope to stay. She can give off the mean look but she truly cares about her students wish I can take her for next semester she is knowledgeable and knows her stuff.
Dr M is really great! Our Lecture professor canceled class a lot and Dr M made the effort to make sure that we understood material from our regular Stats class even though it wasn't her responsibility.
Dr. M is by far the best professor I've taken at QC! She walks you through every paper and really takes the time to prepare her students for future advanced courses. You can tell she cares about her students! She provides extra credit when she sees people struggling in any way and always grades fairly! I strongly suggest Dr. M for 213w!
She's okay. Honestly, its better to take her if you have no other choice. Her lectures were okay, kinda kept it interesting but she is a tough grader on the writing papers. I get you have to work hard but still its a beginner class. I even used my graded papers as a guide and she'd still cross the same things out, makes no sense.
Attendance is mandatory. Don't take her! Unless you have no other choices. I wish I hadn't. Her paper grading is kinda rubbish, she writes all over the paper as if we are little kids. She called out during the semester but if you were absent once she would make a big deal. Comes off rude, makes corny jokes. Overall, shes okay. I wouldn't take her.
Don't take her
very difficult class but she taught it well. she volunteered to be our professor for 6 hours on a Sunday because the original teacher didn't want to do it. LOTS of papers, grades very harshly but lets you rewrite two papers
don't take her, statistics is hard and her way of teaching is hard too. I didn't understand the materials she taught. Had to drop that class. Won't take her again.
I love professor mangiapanello!! Her tests are extremely fair and her lectures are great. She will do everything in her power to help you. Her lovely personality makes lectures much less depressing and she is really good at what she does!! She genuinely cares about her students!! One of the best teachers I ever had at QC
I had Dr. M for my psychometric class and I must say that she was a great professor. She gave us mindtap assignments for every chapter. If she didnt go over the material in class then it wont be on the exam. She was fair when it came to grading. I even had a few bumps in the beginning of the semester and she worked with me.
Dr. M is really awesome. I took her for psychometrics and really loved her. Shes very clear with what she wants & what are on tests, there are no tricks. Shes funny, cute, & like your school mom. I would totally recommend her to anyone taking any psych classes!
course is very hard but this professor really helps you. great teacher.
Kathie is one of the best teachers I have ever had in QC. She is caring, straight forward and easy to listen to. Her tests are extremely fair, with lots of extra credit. If you come to class, study the information, and pay attention you will do well. She cares about every single student. Would definitely take again.
Dr. M is amazing. I took her for psychometrics and statistics and Ive never had a professor like her. She genuinely cares for her students and wants to help them pass and understand the material. Her tests are based on what you go over in class. She makes the class interesting and fun. She wants to help you get the best grade you can get. Love her
Great professor, would take again
Dr. Mangiapanello is great math teacher. Dr. M breaks down the problems step by step, and I found my notes from class a lot easier to follow than the textbook. Based on this, I would say that attendance is very important. She seems to really want her students to do well, and she gives you all the resources to do so.
Dr. M was the best teacher i could have hoped for. I went in to the course very apprehensive about stats and she made it my favorite class of the semester. She breaks down the information so clearly and doesn't continue teaching until everyone understands. Come to class because she gives great examples and many EC options. She is a very kind woman.
Dr. M is my favorite professor at QC! Shes extremely helpful and despite what this website says shes really caring and definitely goes out of her way to try to help her students. Shes also really funny and down to earth, she explains everything and is clear in the class grading requirements. Definitely recommend!
213W involved a ton of writing! But Dr.M gave the best feedback comments on each paper. Shes one of the few professors that will fight for students as she saw that 4 papers is a lot for most students who have a full time job and have other classes. She is so funny and always tried to make us laugh. I wish she taught more classes.
Professor Mangiapanello showed no significant difference in psychology professors in Queens College. She shows that she cares about the subject but not about the students. Although her teaching methods were explained the knowledge was not useful. If you are majoring in statistics or in psychology this might be a class you want other than that. RUN!
Best proffessor!!!! Dr. M is caring and really wants to help her students!
Dr. M is the best professor! She really cares about her students and wants to see them do well. Highly recommended!!
This professor is amazing. I took a risk and decided enroll in a summer stats course. Very intense, at one point I thought I was going to fail but prof. M told me to not give up because she saw in me that I cared and I had the power to succeed mind you and I am HORRIBLE at math. but I didn't give up. She TRULY cares. And she's super supportive!!
I was nervous about taking stats over the summer, but I am so glad I did. Dr. M genuinely cares about her students and wants to see them succeed. Statistics can get tedious at times, but she guides you through all the topics step by step, making the really big problems feel very simple. Show her you care about the class, and she'll work with you.
Professor Kat is awesome, she is amazing at what she does and overall she made me love doing stats early in the morning. Her exams are straight forward, 20 mc and 2 math problems. you must come to class because she takes attendance and take really good notes. overall i would take another course with professor Kat bc she makes everything so easy!
Dr. M is literally a math mom and I loved having her. She takes the time to go over everything and REALLY enjoyed what she does. She makes the material digestible and not as scary as it might seem at first glance. If you ever have the opportunity to, take her and you will love her!
Dr. M is a great professor. Stat is not a fun subject for me at all, but I managed to well in this class because of Kathleen. Her lectures are great, she is super clear with the material when she teaches. She goes through everything step by step. Participation matters in this class. Participate atleast once per class so she knows you're trying.
Prof. M is an amazing lecturer. She keeps the class fun and you can tell really cares for her students, and genuinely wants us to do well. The exams weren't too bad, as long as you paid attention and practiced you're good to go. She made me love statistics. Strongly recommend her!!
She is an amazing professor. She breaks down statistics to the core, making it simple and so easy to understand. Her tests are super straight forward and directly based on in-class problems. She gives tons of extra credit + somehow you can get 5 multiple choice wrong and still get a 100. She's hilarious, sweet, and caring. I definitely recommend!
Professor mangiapanello truly is a sweet heart. She really cares for her students to do well. She believed in me even when I didnt believe in myself. There needs to be more professors like her. Best psych 107 teacher out there. Take her!!!!!!!!!! Please!!!
Im in Dr. Ms class this semester. She is so caring of her students and only wants them to succeed. She knows her info inside and out. If you show up to all the classes, and take good notes you will do great in class. Take her if you have the chance to!!! The topics get pretty intense, but she explains everything thoroughly. Highly recommend her!!
Dr M is such a sweet person. We had our second exam today and she brought us m&ms to cheer us up. I think she truly cares about her students. I can tell because even when the class ended she stayed an extra 30 min for the people who were still working. Her tests are fair and everything we learned in class. Nothing surprising on it. Take her!!
Dr Mangiapanello is a real gem. Not only does she answer emails literally the second after you send them, she is so sweet, and explains a tough subject very well. You have to study and work for your grade, but it is not hard to do so if you come to class. Wish she was teaching an undergrad class next sem bc i would take her again in a heartbeat.
One of the most hardworking professors I know. Shes amazing.
She is absolutely amazing, I have taken her twice. First in PSYCH 107 which was relatively easy. Psych 323 was also easy. She grades only on tests but she is very caring and compassionate. There is impossible to fail her class.
I honestly dont think its hard to do well in this class if you show up and pay attention. She is so fair, and by that I mean that the tests are exactly on what we learned in class. No surprises what so ever. She is also very accessible outside of class. Answers emails quicker than lighting!
I was so sad when this class came to an end. By far one of my fave professors!
I'm not sure what the negative reviews are about. Dr. M is easily the best professor I've ever had. Caring, smart, interesting. Take her class!! She's the best.
I loved this class & I miss her!!!!!! Great professor who may go fast but truly knows how to teach. If you keep up with her you will do great!! Trust me
Amazing!
She made me look forward to learning math. Never rushed and made sure everyone was on the same page when learning. Gives so many opportunities to boost your grade while making sure you are understanding math. Tests(3) are open book for the written half. She will make sure you pass if you put in the work. Amazing person!
Best professor ever. Her class is amazing. I used to hate math until I got in her class. How a beautiful way she has to teach and she cares so much about her students. I loved her class.
THE BEST PROFESSOR AT QC! Show up, do the work, and she'll make sure you learn. She made some of the longest math problems of my life really easy and fun to do. I wish I could take her for all my classes! She's also the biggest sweetheart and loves talking to the class and getting to know students. And She never forces you to speak / calls on you!
Professor Mangiapanello made a hard class a hell of a lot easier with how good her teaching is. I had to drop 107 the first time I took it because it was so hard but this semester I was able to do really well. She explains stuff really clearly and gives a lot of extra credit opportunities as well as the chance to retake certain exams.
Professor Mangiapanello was amazing! She provided a lot of extra credit opportunities, reopened all the homework assignments and helped us understand the topics. Additionally, she has made the subject enjoyable with hilarious jokes.
WOW! DR M IS GREAT! SHE IS CARING, VERY HELPFUL, & MAKES SURE HER STUDENTS FULLY UNDERSTAND THE MATERIAL. SHE EVEN GAVE US EXTRA EXAM REVIEWS ON HER PERSONAL TIME! ONE OF THE BEST PROFESSORS I HAVE EVER INCOUNTERED! THANK YOU FOR BEING THE GREAT EDUCATOR YOU ARE
Pushes exams back to back and refuses to do in person review. She does the review on zoom and never completes the questions, she just gives the formula. Too much information to understand and she has no sympathy for students struggling. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!
Although Professor Mangiapanello is nice, she chooses favorites in the class. Exams are open book; however, the final is closed book, and she refuses to give sample problems or study guides during review because she doesn't want to "give them away." The mindtap homework has nothing to do with exams, yet she assigns it anyway. DO NOT TAKE!
Not sure why this professor has such a high rating considering how rude and uncaring she is towards students. She gives wayyy too much homework and you're on your own when it comes time for exams. Gives 4 exams and 1 final with questions that were never mentioned in class. Save your gpa and take another professor who can help.
A pleasure to take this semester. Has a warm demeanor, sense of humor, and upbeat outlook. She takes the time to get to know her students by name and shows a sincere interest in their academic and personal growth. She offers ample opportunities for additional support and guidance outside of regular class time
Professor M. was nice and had good lectures i was able to understand the math, she gave chances to do better. However, She does not provide slides nor exam review, she claims to answer questions people may have but she rejects them during her lectures. Such materials for this class are a necessity, I struggled without them. Wouldn't recommend.
Professor M is so kind with her students! She never forces you to participate if you don't want to. She also takes time out of her weekends and after class hours to hold review sessions before each exam including the final. She holds review sessions both online and in person to help accommodate all her students.
Dr.M is a great professor who goes out of her way to ensure her students succeed in her class. She even extends the h.w assignment due dates to help make sure her students have enough time to study. The exams are open book so make sure to take good notes. Dr.M also never hesitates to go over a topic again until all her students understand it.
Professor Mangiapanello was always so kind, made her students laugh, & made sure to always root & cheer for their success. She always make sure to express her happinesses for students success & after each lesson she would ask everyone how they felt about the topic to make sure everyone understood it. Overall, a great professor. 10/10 recommend!!
This professor is one of the best you can choose to take for stats. The topics are hard but she explains it in a way that you can easily understand them. Her exams are worded like her, as long as you pay attention in class, know how to explain & define topics then you'll do well on the exams. Very kind & understanding professor. Would take again.
Professor Mangiapanello is a kind, understanding instructor who makes complex topics easy to grasp. While the exams can be challenging, her review sessions and unstuck AI prep tools are super helpful. Definitely take this class if you want to learn statistics well.
Such a stuck-up professor that teaches as if we know the material already. She is so lazy in the review and rants about how she's such a kind person most of the class. I can't stress enough how self-centered and biased she is with students. Most of the class is spent with her drinking diet coke and complaining. Please avoid and take someone else.
She's AWESOME! Night class is rough, but everything is taught very clearly, she has lots of patience, she goes at a good pace, and she hosts multiple review sessions and office hours for support. She also gives *many* extra credit questions and opportunities to do well in the course. Follow along, keep up with the material, and you'll do just fine.
Any claims that she's self-centered are false. She's outgoing, supportive, and truly cares about students understanding the material. This tough course is manageable because she provides extra credit, Zoom meetings in her free time, and constant help. If you fail, it's because you didn't try. She's dedicated, patient, and passionate about teaching
I have never met a professor as dedicated as Dr. M. There are 5 exams the last being a cumulative final, online homework assignments, and extra credit opportunities. The class itself is a challenge but Dr. M explains the material smoothy. TAKE DETAILED CONCEPTUAL NOTES. Read the textbook and attend Dr. M's review sessions. Tutors make a difference.
The class itself is definitely not easy, however Dr.M explained everything really well. I did find the homework a little pointless though. She offers a lot of extra credit and many zoom review sessions. Make sure you understand your notes as they are critical for exams
Ignore Dr. M's minions who downplay others experiences. Not everyone is going to have a good experience with her and that's okay! The professor is tough so don't blame students for failing. Unless you're a math whiz consider taking this class with someone more patient and caring. The exam review is just formulas and the extra credit is one point :)
I agree, I struggled with the review because the half written formulas simply were not enough. Also why are we disliking peoples reviews, that is so rude lol. The cengage homework had nothing to do with the exams so it was truly a waste of time. I was so confused as to why she gave a fifth exam instead of doing final review. Very stressful indeed.
Dr. M is very knowledgeable. Attending class is very important, if you miss one lecture you will be clueless the next. She has office hours and offers extra credit. Homework practices were alright, but help understand the conceptual part of this course. This course is heavy, Dr. M does a good job at explaining things but can be fast paced be ready!
10/10 recommend taking this class with her. She is very caring and goes above and beyond in making sure you understand the concepts discussed in lecture. Never had a professor who cared about their students doing well as much as Dr. Mangiapanello does.
I really enjoyed Dr. Mangiapanello's class. It's no secret that Statistical Methods is a hard course but if you show up, participate and engage in class, Dr. M will work with you. She demonstrates problems very cohesively and is always open to questions. She is also a fair grader. She knows her stuff.
she's honestly one of the best professors I have ever had, specially someone who struggles a lot with math the way she would explain things in class would make it is easy to do, she's very caring as well I struggled a lot but she was kind enough to support me through the whole class. participation matters! and go to her class or else you WIL belost
she's honestly one of the best and easy professors I've ever met!! please take her!! she explains things so well and is always there to help, GO TO HER CLASS! and PARTICIPATE trust me if u participate she will really bump up ur grade, her exams are all open bookpt2,pt1isntexcept the final which is cumulative mostly just key terms but UNDERSTAND IT!
SHES THE BEST!! as someone who hates math and can't do it she was so amazing please go to her class!! and TAKE CONCEPTUAL NOTES! participate and attend those review sessions! The cengage was tho pretty useless but it gives u points to add up to ur final class average, her exams all open book pt2 but part 1 closed and the final which is all vocab
She is a good professor and great overall to speak with. But the class overall is super challenging towards the end and the exams was challenging also, I do recommend to take this class seriosuly to get a good grade.
Dr.M is truly a great professor. Math has never been my strong suit but Dr.M explained it which such ease and provided great examples that helped me understand the topics. Make sure to attend review sessions for exams & organize your notes for pt 2 of the exam where its open book. Great professor. She truly cares for her students overall wellbeing.
100% RECOMMEND TAKING THIS PROFESSOR. Takes good notes, ask questions, hand in hw on time, attend review sessions & you'll do well. She makes an effort to learn all her students name & is willing to go over topics again until you understand it. I would take her again if I can. Exams can be a bit hard but if you study each topic well you'll do well.
She truly cares about each student and will do her best to work with each student. She is a very particular grader but gives great feedback.
Caring professor! I took her for lab! The lab manuals are straight forward but I think she is definitely a tough grader. She is great with feedback though and will help you if you ask! She really cares about her students and it shows. This is a tough class so just pay attention !
One of the best professors at queens college. She made stats so fun to learn. I rlly liked how she used to crack some jokes during her lectures and attempt to make the class happy. She did a really good job teaching and helping her students learn. Thank you Dr M for everything you have done. I hope to have you in the future.
She is one of the nicest professors at QC, She teaches at a pace that is easily understandable and she is super helpful if you have questions. She has Zoom sessions before tests to make sure we understand the topic. As long as you keep up, passing this class shouldn't be a problem.
One of the best math teachers I have ever had in my college career. She is very attentive and engaging with her class and makes sure everyone has a chance at passing the class.
she genuinely cares so much about all of the students. and also i am not great at math but she teaches the course in steps and as long as you go to the lectures she will make every effort to make sure you understand the material.
