Awful teacher. Juhn manages to take a somewhat simple subject and make it complicated and hard to follow. She has a history of poor grades in her classes therefore requires attendance as 10% of your grade. I try not to listen in class and only read the book and work out problems on my own in order to avoid confusion.

Dr. Juhn is a good professor. Her PSY 2317 was interesting and I gained a lot from it. It really helps to read the chapter before attending class - that way her lectures make sense and you can follow easily. If you don't prepare beforehand, it's easy to get behind. But that's the student's fault, not hers.

She wants the best for students and is eager to help outside of class. But its a 75 min lecture and she doesnt stop talking once. Has the ability to make difficult material seem easy and easy material seem hard. Gives online quizes and HW but easy to lose points bc of meticulous grading. SI is your best friend. allows "cheat sheet" on exams

Dr. Juhn is very kind and it is obvious she wants everyone to understand the material, so much that it gets boring at many points. You do not need the text book and grading is somewhat particular. As long as you go to class and do the assignments, you should be fine

Difficult to follow in lectures and often negative toward students, though I don't know if she means to come across as she does. Very blunt. The course was decent and I passed but it was a lot of homework. Reading on my own to understand the material was the only way I really learned anything. Attendance mandatory, cheatsheet for exams was helpful.

Nancy Juhn is a WONDERFUL professor! She spends an ample amount of time on the material and makes sure that every student understands. She's very accessible, incredibly sweet, and has a passion for what she does. The tests are fairly easy, as long as you do plenty of practice. She has optional homework and online quizzes.

She is an amazing and passionate person. Unfortunately her style of teaching does not suit me. She relates to the real word but BE CAREFUL WITH TESTS there is NO PARTIAL CREDIT. If you put the right formula but forget to carry a negative, it will count all wrong. She's accessible out of class to help you.

Coming from a person with a stats background, Dr. Juhn is just an ok professor. She's incredibly sweet, but, you'll learn more from the textbook than rom Dr. Juhn herself. Her classes cover topics that are useful to learn, but she fails to hit upon the vital aspects of statistics. Take Dr. Abdi if you really want a firm foundation in methods.

This professor's teaching style is not for everyone. She throws out random thoughts and ideas with no structure or foundation tying them together. Exams can be lengthy and difficult to do well on despite understanding the material. There are no powerpoints and notes are generally useless in helping you study.

Attendance was not mandatory online, but she mentioned things in the lectures that would be on the exams/quizzes that have no mention in the textbook.

Extremely hard to manage in the midst of COVID. Her lectures are hardly useful as her applications of concepts are mostly arbitrary in the 2 exams she gives, which are the only grades that are weighed besides the 5 quizzes. Doesn't release answer keys to study guides, not even in TA sessions. Statistically, you're better off taking another prof.

Dr. Juhn is a solid professor for RM. She encourages participation in lectures and to come to office hours if you have any questions. Aside from attending class, it's important to read the textbook, as there are some concepts that aren't covered. Exams can feel like a time crunch - but she's generous with extra credit/curving final grades.
