She seems nice but she should not be teaching. The one thing she doesn't do is teach, and studying from the textbook is a waste of time since the midterm didn't cover any material. She is unclear of what she wants us to do, and she provides no office hours! Very difficult to follow during the lectures, and very unorganized. Avoid this prof!

Patricia wants her students to succeed but doesn't set them up for success. She rambles during lectures which makes it hard to follow. You ask her to give more explicit instructions on assignments, she tells you to read the outline, then gives you feedback on the assignment stating to follow the instructions. Her grading is also all over the place.

I have only just started this class, but the prof is already awful. She goes on rambling tangents, and grills students to participate in class. There are tons of spelling mistakes in the syllabus and the quizes which makes reading them a slog. Take any class except the one Patricia Hull is teaching.

She's definitely sweet and kind and caring, although she does kind of go on unrelated, rambling tangents which could make it hard for some students to pay attention. Easy class though, and she likes to joke and add anecdotes in her lessons to keep students engaged. However, she expects students to participate, which I didn't mind, but be reminded.

This is the worst professor Ive ever had in my life. She rambles on in lectures and never can complete her thought. She will ask students questions they wont even know the answer to, and she will push until they guess. Her lectures are useless, confusing, and you will not learn one thing from her. Im convinced the class is an experiment on students

She is really kind and caring, however, she is an extremely difficult marker for such an easy class.

Nearly impossible to get an A in anything unfortunately, find a different prof as the workload is heavier.

I don't understand the mean reviews on here. Patricia will take attendance by giving you questions at the end of each class, but that's to only help you succeed. Attendance is worth 10%, so it's a mandatory component of the course. Every section of MGMT 3276 has the same grading components. It's time to grow up for some of y'all, it's uni after all

I took Project Mgmt (mgmt 3269) with Patricia. She is an extremely nice lady and does genuinely care about her students but cannot teach content. She often skips slides and its hard to follow lecture; a lot of it is asking about understanding or answers rather than teaching. Quizzes are hard but a good group will get you through mgmt 3269.
