Very unhelpful. Lectures were not coherent. Very unorganized. The MH connect portion of the class was confusing. Not a good professor.

All the other reviews are right. Her tests are 10x harder than the practice exams. Questions are very tricky, especially on the final. I don't know where she even comes up with these questions. I had an A- in the class until I took that awful final exam and ended with a B, ruining my GPA. (

Worst professor and class ever. Meant to be easy and makes it difficult to get a decent grade. No structure to her class and is not clear on anything. Her discussions are useless. Mind as well not even watch lecture because 90% of the things on the exam were all textbook. Got an A in finance but struggling to get a A here.

I wish her successful CEO sister taught this class. She is very unclear on so many course mechanics and she is all over the place. Would've gotten an A if I didn't forget about one of the online assessments (50+ points). Do the extra credit online studies, get Smokin' Notes a few days before exams, skip lectures entirely -- you'll be happy you did.

Professor Archambeau tries very hard to be cool, as said in other comments. She cracks jokes that are not funny and her lectures are not helpful. The lectures are boring and she basically reads off of the slides. I highly recommend smokin notes for this class and doing the learn smarts and her practice exam!

One of the worst professors I've had and I'm only a month into her course. The exam questions are so confusing for no reason, not cohesive to the practice questions. And her lectures are horrible, impossible to follow. And her VOICE, it makes me want to throw my laptop across the room. Don't watch her lectures, they're useless. Just read the text

One of the worst professors at UF. Tests are confusing and nothing like the practice tests.

My rating is solely based on poorly worded exam questions, designed to trick and confuse students. This is a deplorable way of evaluating our knowledge. I don't know if the professor wrote the exams (I doubt it), but she is certainly responsible for proofreading them. Students deserve better.

This teacher, as well as her class, is a heaping pile of useless garbage. Students would be better off reading a few books on management than attempting to "learn" anything from the prepackaged load of crap in MAN3025. Sorry that this is a required course with a minimum of C for upstream courses. Just get through this and know none of it is useful.

Hated this class, the assignments were easy as pie. The exams were HARD. Hardly anyone managed to get over a C. I went from being an A student to having a D after the first exam. Never recovered even though I got A's on every assignment and did all the extra credit. Prof never replies to questions. Exams were BRUTAL and determined your grade.

Just took her Exam 1. Like other's before me her exam's are worded TERRIBLY. It feels like she wants you to fail. Choose another professor, her lectures are boring and cover nothing that is on the exam. Use smokin notes if you want a decent grade.

I actually enjoy the subject matter, which is a shame because these tests & assignments are very confusing. I agree, it's like she's setting you up to fail. Do not take this professor. She takes an interesting class and ruins it with trick questions . I've never received below an A in a class and I currently have a C.

A great subject with a a lot of interesting material. Too bad it is taught by this teacher. Her lectures are horrible, she says "right" at the end of every sentence and what makes it worse is they don't help on the tests, which are supposed to be "application questions", but the questions are so out in left field that it is frustrating.

Honestly the class itself is not that hard, but the exams are beyond difficult. She sets the answer choices so similar to trick you, and is not understanding at all when it comes to them. All of the other work is easy but the exams will kill your grade. Nice lady just difficult.

Words can't describe how frustrated I am. I am an A/B student, A's in all economics and accounting classes, and an A+ in calculus. The practice material/lectures/learnsmart do nothing to prepare you for exams, which are so illegible you're rapidly too exhausted to even process any info. UF cares about research > education. Feeling sad & betrayed.

She is not very professional when it comes to emailing her students back at all. She will not answer until you email multiple times. She is inconsiderate to anything you are going through. Her exams barely cover the review. She gave lots of extra credit and not a lot of work, however being a good teacher is more than the work you give out.

She is the worst teacher I have had in all my years of school. She has little to no interaction with her students outside of lectures and is very inconsiderate. She also answers no emails. I had her during the COVID-19 incidents and all i have to say is hope nothing life changing happens to you when you have her because she will not make it easier.

AVOID IF CAN! The absolute worst teacher. Lectures do not help on exams, do not even watch them, it WILL waste your time. You can earn 30 pts e.c but it barely does a thing. SHE WILL NOT ANSWER YOUR EMAILS until you send multiple, she may still not reply. If she doesn't want to interact w students she should pick a different profession, good luck.

MAN3025 isnt that difficult, but it got so annoying at times. Be careful on the assessments and group projects and maximize your points on those. Do the extra credit. Study for the exams using her review lecture, practice exam and read Smokin Notes and you should get at least a B. Exam questions were sometimes very weird and didnt make sense.

This class was all about the exams. I read the text book and watched the lectures but after the first exam realized the lectures were no help. Don't waste your time on the ridiculously long lectures. Read the text, do the extra credit, and get smokin' notes if you need help beyond the text.

First time I've ever gotten below a B-. The content itself is not hard but the professor does her best to make it unnecessary hard with the worst questions I've ever seen. An ESL kid could write better exams. There is extra credit but it wont help much. Case assignments destroy your grade for no reason. Basically teach yourself and pray.

Horrible class. The lectures are long and she just reads off 10 year old PowerPoints that are horribly formatted. Better off just memorizing the textbook. The exams are complete filled with ambiguous and opinionated multiple choice questions. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS IN THE SUMMER!!! She does case assignments that averaged 60% and killed grades.

The worst professor I've had in my 4 years of college. Her tests are absolutely insane, Multiple questions on the exam with only wrong answers. How are you going to give the same questions on the practice exams and not include the correct answer? I emailed her & the TA's and NOBODY contacted me back. It's sad when an advisor warns you about a prof

I really want to know how she is teaching at UF?? She is absolutely terrible. Her class was nothing but tests (3) and 10 point assignments (easy) but do nothing for your grade. Her test is set up to fail you. The material is easy to learn. I really believe she wants everyone to fail bc her tests are straight trash. Garbage. Shes garbage.

This teacher is one of those who legitimately just wants to see their students fail. She is an awful lecturer and she makes the exams confusing n purpose. She gives a lecture telling you what to know and what not to know and then purposely puts stuff from the do not know section on the exam. Worst teacher at UF bar nun.

She does not care in any way about her students. My dad passed away right before the final exam and she was not kind and did not create accommodations for my difficult situation. She has boring lectures and does not teach the subject well at all. Might as well buy smokin notes.

The professor does an amazing job taking extremely easy, common sense topics and using that information to craft ridiculously difficult exams. I studied the textbook, lectures, and Smokin' Notes and still could not get an A. I wound up very close to an A but did not make the cut. The information truly is simple, but the exams aren't.

Material is very easy, but this professor makes the exams as frustrating as possible with test questions which have multiple answers, many spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, and even test questions duplicates. I wouldn't even bother with her lectures since she states "This won't be on the exam" explicitly and yet it still appears on the exam.

Could care less about students. Emailed about medical emergency days before exam and she asked why I was telling her about this. Exams questions are hard to understand. The lectures and readings are barely related. Easily the worst professor Ive had at UF so far.

This is the worse class I ever had to take at UF. Her lectures are too disorganized and confusing. It is truly best to just read the smokin'notes material and the textbook. The review for the exam are not really participative for you to ask questions about the content and honestly if you do ask questions you can end up more confused.

I would not recommend this class to anyone who can take an alternative. The lectures barely cover what will be on the exams, i eventually just stopped watching them. exams make up a large portion of the final grade. I read every chapter, took hand written notes and studied for a week before all three exams. Smokin notes helped.

Just a badly designed, confusing, and overwhelming class. She is cold, stern, and thinks shes better than everyone.

Doesnt care about her students

This class is despicable solely due to the incompetence of the professor. The class is useful but the professor contradicts herself and the textbook yet we are tested on both. She said apple is not an innovative company but apple is one of the most innovative companies. Does not understand her own material or how it applies to the real world. sad.

If I could've avoided this professor I would've. Unfortunately she's the only option for this course. The material and content is fair but her exams are ridiculous.

Professor actively tries to trick you on exams. Her wording on exams is so bad and unclear that it is sometimes extremely difficult to know the right answer even if you do study for hours and hours.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS

She makes management feel like orgo

Listen to me when I say to run from this professor. She is absolutely ridiculous. Her exams are worded as if we are taking a Spanish exam. Literally cannot understand a single thing she is asking in the questions even if you studied the material. RUN

Likely the worst professor in Warrington. She is just simply terrible and neglects to proofread her exams. This class is management yet the only application of the material is some not-helpful role plays we do. It's pathetic how bad this class is.

She makes management so unnecessarily difficult even for those who understand the content. The questions on her exams make no sense and have a million typos in them. She doesn't proofread the exams and puts duplicate questions. She is rude during lectures and you can tell that she does not care about her students. UF please let someone else teach.

She truly is an awful professor. Her exams are riddled with spelling errors and duplicate questions. She words her questions so that they are hard to understand and figure out. You have to get Smokin' Notes to pass this course. She gives 30 point of extra credit so do everyone that you can because you will need them.

Probably the most unprofessional professor I have had at UF. Tests are riddled with errors, and she is cold in person. She puts forth little effort in designing the class. Smokin' Notes are a must.

Nothing that hasn't been said before. Join a groupme for entertainment because you will lose your mind and it's nice to know your thoughts are shared with 1000 other students. Smokinnotes are a must and for the love of everything do the extra credit you WILL need it. This class has me doubt that UF actually reads gator evals, nothing has changed.

The worst class I have ever taken. Do not take this class if you do not have to. The topic should be fun and inspirational. This class is an example of making an easy thing hard.

Exams didn't assess understanding concepts. Instead, they seem to have been written to ensure a large portion of the class scored beneath an A. The questions are poorly written and are posed in ways that allow for several correct answers depending on their interpretation. It is a complete toss-up & feels like gambling regardless of study habits

Incoherent, rambling lectures with no structure. Says things won't be on the test, and then they are. Practice exam unavailable for the final. Assignments, notes, slides don't reflect what's on tests. Lecture content differs from book. Smokin Notes will not help much either. Students gave feedback on poor questions, her reply "agree to disagree".

Awful professor. Takes ages to respond to emails, lectures are useless. If you read the textbook and take good notes, you won't need SN. Material is easy, but exams are hit or miss bc the questions are worded so poorly. Multiple answers seem like they could be correct, so it's a guessing game. Do the EC, it's easy and adds 3% to your final grade!

GET SMOKIN NOTES!! her lectures are so bad, but if you have smokin notes you are set for the class. Her questions are tricky, so pay attention when reading it. Do the extra credit because it helps a lot. Not a lot of assignments, overall an easy A.

Class does not encourage learning whatsoever. The answers to each test and quiz are hidden so you are left guessing what you got wrong and unable to appeal. Professor also does not proofread which leads to incorrect answers and unnecessary information on quizzes (which are created by McGraw-Hill). Overall, a very frustrating class and professor.

Terrible professor, also accused 1/3 of the class for cheating...

Not particularly the best professor is known for accusing a ridiculous amount of the class for cheating. Entering her exams late is an automatic 0 regardless of the reason. Class is easy but very uninteresting and the professor does not make it particularly interesting either.

One of the worst professors UF has to offer. Doesn't teach anything really, kinda just repeats the text book. Her entire job is done better by the smokin notes packets for the class. Extremely unfair to her students as well. Accused more than half of class of cheating last year

Professor Archambeau has interesting, yet almost useless lectures. Along with this, her exams contain questions that are worded horribly and are often misleading. This counterintuitive aspect makes a class that is not very difficult in material very frustrating.

continuation post: Furthermore, before the second exam, she released an announcement regarding honorlock troubleshooting because of many recent problems surrounding the exam proctoring service. Not only did none of the troubleshooting tips work, but she said even if honorlock was not working correctly, a late entrance to an exam would be a zero.

continuation part 3: This is not only very irresponsible but inconsiderate to anyone slow to troubleshoot computer problems, or those with any genuine excuse. With all of these in mind, I believe Archambeau should be removed from the business college and is no longer fit to be a professor.

Awful experience, got an A in the class but she sent me to the dean accusing me of cheating. I was never once notified, nor did I cheat. They ruled in her favor, so I am currently retaking the class. Awful at answering emails & very inconsiderate to personal issues. Will give u a 0 if you're late to the test and enjoys accusing students of cheating

Sucks that they make you take this professor for business majors. Exam questions are basically opinions, and every question is arguable. The definition of someone who is over-educated and didn't do anything with her life.

Crazy how a professor can get paid 130k + and just use connect. Her office hours and test times are super weird and she gives you a 0 on test if you are late by 10 min. Very hard to get ahold of. She needs to be removed from business school and can tell she is over educated with no experience in real world. These kind of people do not need to teach

Material in the class was useless. The exams were subjective, poorly worded and did not make sense. The proctored chapter quizzes weren't much better. I didn't have any problems with the professor specifically, but this was the worse class I've had in years. Moderate effort and still got A. It is worth getting smokin notes

A class that should not be hard turned incredibly difficult by horrible exam questions that are almost all subjective. It's wild to me that professors can get paid well for literally just using Connect which we have to pay for in addition to tuition. The most dull class it had me questioning my major at times. Just get Smokin Notes and do the EC.

This class is overly stressful for no reason, with the exams having some questions with multiple right answers. What should be a fun, hands-on learning experience in the world of management is bogged down by nonstop proctored quizzes/exams and a copious amount of textbook reading. Archambeau will give a 0 if you show up to an exam 1 second late.

Quiz and exam questions mostly have multiple answers and questions are unclear. Exams are on Canvas, while the rest of assignments are on Connect. Professor isn't clear on that and doesn't post it on the calendar, so it was an easy zero on the first exam. Prof is extremely strict and hard grader. Connect assignments are easy except for quizzes.

All she does is basically repeat the textbook. Her lectures are completely useless and the material is not helpful at all. She gives you a 0 if you arrive more than 15 min late on a test. She basically accuses half the class of cheating and is very strict overall.

Lectures were not helpful and the assignments and quizzes were nothing like the exams. She gives a practice exam but the questions are wordy, confusing, and repetitive. Use smokin notes and read the textbook, do not know why this class even has a professor as everything is through connect, she only is concerned about peope cheating, not learning.

Lectures just summarize the chapters. Do yourself a favor and just read the book to limit any confusion you might experience watching the lectures. Tough grader on the discussion boards and group papers, use a lot of key concepts. Using just one won't be enough and will dock you points.

Professor is useless, TA's are more useless, exam's are worded in a way where you're meant to get it wrong. I spent a week studying for the last exam and I ended up with a C- on it somehow and a B overall when I am an A+ student. No matter how much studying I did it didn't matter bc the exam had questions phrased so bizarrely. I hate this professor

The exam questions were super specific things from the textbook. Smokin notes was useful to an extent but the exams were unpredictable. Would not recommend taking during the summer term.

Hilarious is the only way to describe wording for her tests. All questions are multiple choice, with the correct answer sharing 4/5 words of the sentence with another answer. Test is designed for the student to get tired looking for detail and do poorly. Closes homework assignments so you cant check what you did good and what you didnt. hilarious.

Worst teacher I had in my 4 years with the University, get her out of here! Especially considering she teaches a class that is a prerequisite for so many others, for her to be as rude and non caring as she is, is beyond me

she wants you to fail. exams are meant to confuse you. she writes her own exams but doesn't know what complete sentences are. management course that is supposed to teach how to manage for success, well the teacher manages for student failure.

Wasted opportunity to introduce students to the field of management. Turns dynamic subject matter into stale, uninspired regurgitation of textbook terms and definitions. Multiple choice exams are a terrible method of evaluation for this material. This entire course should be restructured. I genuinely feel that I have gained nothing from this class.

I don't think I have ever come out of a class and thought that I GENUINELY learned nothing. Lectures taught absolutely nothing, textbook is not a helpful way to learn management. Cool topic ruined by a terrible class structure. Exams are probably the worse ive ever taken in all of UF. Written terribly, completely useless class don't take if you can

Overall, class was easy and content was easy to understand. However, Professor Archambeau was a terrible professor as she didn't take a personal matter of mine that was very serious into consideration. She doesn't care what is going on in your personal life at all, even for health emergencies. One of the most non-sympathetic professors ever.

The absolute worst. Homework all easy vocab stuff and then exams long word problems with multiple correct answers.

Don't take this class lightly. Principles of Management doesn't initially sound like a difficult class and the material makes it seem that way, but her question-writing makes exams way harder than expected. Her practice exams do not mirror the actual exams, I'd recommend smoking notes to get access to more questions. Avoid if possible.

Awful professor and the exams are very hard. DO NOT TAKE !

I wish she wasnt the only professor for this course,

Hey, you—yeah, you, reading this—I am so sorry that you will have to take Archambeau. You have no choice. If you did, she would not be employed. Here's my advice: her lectures are worthless, do not depend on Smokin' Notes, and READ. THE. TEXTBOOK. If you do ANYTHING, study the textbook. I PROMISE. Do the extra credit too. Godspeed, soldier.

Worst teacher ever! The four exams are only open for ONE HOUR on only one day. I cannot take the exams now because I missed the ONE HOUR TIME SLOT!!!!!

Awful experience! I'm in UF Online and this professor forces four exams at fixed times with only one hour each, no flexibility. I missed an exam they allowed no retakes. I'm in Europe and had to take them at 2 AM. I know the material well but the setup is unfair and inconsiderate. The worst class and professor I've had at UF. Worst professor ever!

Professor Archamebau's exams are horrible, she offers practice exams that are way easier and topic based than the actual exam which has horribly worded questions meant to trick you and choose the wrong answer. Because everything is "choose the best answer" she makes the answer choices extremely vague for the question so there isn't a clear answer.

This class is all AI Slop. Literally just McGraw Hill quizzes and "role plays". You dont even need to hear her voice for an A. Pathetic this is even considered a 3000 level course, so take it in stride because zero effort is put in by her, so zero effort is needed from you.

Awful professor. No matter how well I know the content for the exam each question has multiple answers that can be correct. The practice exams are 100 times easier than the real exams so you never really know what you're going to get no matter how much you practice. Used smokin notes and still couldn't manage an A.

lectures are useless, exams have nothing to do with the practice exams or what she talks about, and she is extremely rude. joke that this is required for credit, she needs to be fired.

Honestly this class shouldn't even have a teacher... all you have to do is read the textbook and study the terms in the textbook. Archambeau provided NO value to this class at all. Everything is done by Mcgraw, I genuinely feel like the professor quit literally did nothing besides use the AI assignments and exams that Mcgraw creates. Have fun :))

She's not a great professor, schedules HW on the same day of tests and is not super easy to talk to. Unfortunately, this is the only professor we have for this class.

The professor knows the info and articulates it well, the actual examined content is ridiculous. I did hybrid and completed all homework, all extra credit, and used office hours. Got a 90%-100% on all homework. However, the practice exams and reading the textbook solidified my knowledge just to be bombarded by poorly worded exams. Good luck!

actually awful. i stopped watching lectures and just took notes on the textbook. exams are the entire grade and I understood the material but the exam questions were just soooo weird. like the questions didn't make sense on purpose. she's nice but she just yapped all of class and wasn't helpful.

For the poor souls that have to suffer through this class. I feel your pain. I learned nothing in this class. The exams are awful. Smokin' Notes saved me some time, and the lectures are not worth sitting through in this class. I'm not sure if there is a right way to teach management in college, but this is surely the wrong way.

Very easy class. However, the professor demonstrates a subpar lecturing ability and treats students with a lack of interest. This professor does not seek to resolve issues with understanding, only what's more convenient for themself.
