Dr. Adkins' class is entertaining and easy to pass. She is always accessible and goes out of her way to make sure everyone understands everything. She doesn't follow the textbook and stays behind schedule the entire semester, but overall a great class and a great professor. I would take Dr. Adkins for every math class if I could.

Dr. Adkins was one of the best professors Ive had. She always goes into depth with what shes teaching and makes sure everyone understands by showing different ways to solve problems. Shes extremely nice and gives you a lot of help with this class. I would enjoy all of my classes if every professor taught like her.

Definitely take this class if you need an easy A. I can't say that I learned a whole lot because we were spoon-fed everything. All tests, quizzes, and projects were open note and most of them she gave us the answers to before they were due in class. If you have a question about something, she will spend the whole class on that subject. Very boring.

Dr. Adkins really cares about you learning and she breaks down the material so that you will eventually understand. Grading isn't too harsh lots of notes, papers, etc. She prefers to do things on paper rather than online!

Easiest Biology course at MU. She cares more than anybody, but she makes this class impossible to fail. She is an overly-generous grader, and most of the grade comes from take-home assignments. The exams are virtually open-everything except the internet. You do not need to know statistics (or 2+2) to pass this class with an A. Great GPA pad class.

Dr. Adkins cares a lot and wants her students to do well. This is an extremely easy class. She grades easy and offers extra credit opportunities on the take home projects. On exams, she allows the use of old graded work and equation sheets. For the final, she let us use all of our old notes. Overall, super easy!

I absolutely hate math but Dr. Adkins made it very enjoyable. She's a little unorganized with her lectures which caused me to lose focus but her course was the first math course I've ever enjoyed.

She is very caring and truly wants you to enjoy learning. Her teaching style is a little scattered, but she is an amazing human being and she's always willing to meet with you outside of class to discuss material or reschedule exams. Also, I'd wait to purchase the "required" textbook for this course. We never used it when I took the course.

I love this professor but her teaching style is not what I need. She's a bit scattered with everything, we did not get through all the material. Personally I feel she over teaches some things and under teaches others. The projects and take home quizzes are so easy. The two tests were more challenging.
