Comment:
Took her online MBA marketing class and would not recommend. Exams are straight out of the textbook so theres no point in reading her lectures. Theres no rhyme or reason to her discussion or case study grades. Dont take this class or prof. Youll learn more and struggle less in a different class.

She is awesome. The best thing is that she cares about her students. I would most certainly recommend her to anyone taking the marketing course.

Participation is a must. If you are not willing to log onto the class multiple times a day. Do not take this class. She is a fair grader if you answer the questions she asks. Don't write fluff. No textbook used, but read a lot of journal articles. Take her! She is really involved with the students.

Read the syllabus very carefully!! This professor is strict and a tough grader. Most discussions are opinion based, but still grades tough on them. You won't know your participation points until it's too late. Go above and beyond on everything. Ended up with a B in this easy elective because I didn't go "beyond the minimum requirement".

I ended up taking Dr. M for three of my graduate courses because she is just THAT good. Super engaging and responsive. No books are required. Favorite professor I've ever had!

Comment:
Dr. Mintu refers to herself in the third person. This, added to her warning-laden course instructions, make her seem like her course will be a pain. Don't be fooled. Do as she says and, in a week or two, you'll be in her groove and the class won't be a big deal. In fact, you'll probably enjoy it. She's good.

She is very strict, but not hard. Follow her rules to the letter and you will have no problem. Seems daunting at first, but, once you get in her groove, it's all good.

She is one of the best online professors I've taken. She understands that most of us have lives and careers outside of class, but is still very involved in discussions and is supportive. There is some work and studying, and you have to understand the materials at least slightly to pass, but a great class overall!

You couldnt hope for a better Professor. When I started the course she was very upfront about her expectations from the students, and that if you didnt follow the syllabus you would be docked points. Professor Alma Mintu-Wimsatt also wants students to be engaged with one another in the online forums which is required. Easy "A" if you do the work.

Dr. M was far and away the best prof at A&M Commerce that I have taken. She "gets" the online format better than anyone, resulting in a better learning experience. She is fair and extremely engaged in posted discussions. I wish she had taught every class I took at TAMU-Commerce. (PS: to Ratemyprofessor: why is "easiness" a good thing?)

My advice as a former student who took this class with Alma that if you like to work hard and gain nothing then take her. She is very arrogant and rude. She is very hard and tough.

Great teacher. I have taken two classes from her already and plan to take a third. Participate more than the minimum requirement, read the assigned reading and take your time on the papers and you will do fine.

Dr. Mintue is the baddest professor you would ever have, she is not there for the students. Busy with her family all the time( especially with her son and his school TCU). She gives too many homework. Her exams are the hardest. Don't think of taking this class with her ever.

4 Case studies(100pts), 2 Exams(200pts), and plenty of discussion boards(100pts). You MUST be active if want the full participation. active meaning posting for every a plethora of posts. not just 5 or 6. I thought I was going to get a B but I received an A. She was helpful and I learned alot. I would take her again in a heartbeat.
