Comment:

Dr. Quesada is one of my favorite professor at TCU. She is super nice and does everything she can to help you succeed. This class is very hard, if you are looking for a religion core class that does not require effort, do not take this class. Do all the reading guides and you will do fine. She gives extra credit that is worth 10 points on any test.

Comment:

Dr quesada is so kind - unless your whole class never does the reading ... then she gets REALLY frustrated (as she should). She takes the time to learn everyone's names unlike most professors. if you do the readings and take notes in class you're guaranteed at least a B. attendance policy is you can miss 8 classes and then u won't pass

Dr. Quesada is an amazing professor that will take her time to make sure you're doing well in her class. If you read what is assigned before class and then review and take notes in the lecture, you'll be more than fine. She's very passionate and knows what she's teaching. Extremely smart. TAKE HER!!!

Quesada is a very very kind prof! Her class is a ton of information, but you can do it! As long as you read (most of it) and take good notes, you will be fine! The tests can be pretty hard so be sure to study! She knows it's a lot and will give extra credit, you also get to drop lowest test! There are 6 tests overall. Take her!!

Comment:

If you're great at reading really old writings, then this class is for you. The worst part about this class is the hour or more of boring reading for every class, but if you do all the homework an A should be pretty obtainable. The entire grade is quizzes/tests, but most of them aren't too tricky. Takes some effort though, so I pass/no credited it

Comment:

Professor Quesada is an amazing professor. I can say I genuinely looked forward to her class. She is kind and cares about how well her students do. If you do the required readings & take notes in class then you will do fine on the tests because they are mostly MC, fill in the blank, and true/false. She is also SUPER knowledgeable about the material

Comment:

I took Dr. Quesada for Spiritual Autobiographies. There are 6 books to read over the semester, but they aren't too long or bad- 1 paper, 1 creative project, 1 final. You can tell she absolutely loves teaching this material and she does a wonderful job at it. I would definitely recommend this class for your religion credit. Get ready to read, though

Ms. Quesada is the sweetest teacher!! She teaches in a manner that makes it interesting. If your struggling she will go out of her way to help you and is very passionate about religion! She is overall a great teacher!! the tests can be difficult at times but if you study it will be okay. Every test has an essay you have to write but she gives topic

Comment:

This was the most difficult class I've ever taken. She does not explain things well and there is A LOT of reading assigned every class! Her 4 tests are near impossible and she only gives 5 extra credit points max for the entire semester and that's only for those struggling to pass like myself! If you skip class, chances are you will miss a quiz too

Dr Quesada is great. Show up to class every day though because she gives a lot of test questions in class. She expects participation but I didnt do the readings every time and was fine. Really nice and helpful. Didnt have to study much and made an A!

Show up for class, do the readings and youll be fine. Quizes will save your grade, gives extra cdredit at the end. DO the READING GUIDES, not mandatory but they will help you get an A in the course. (the reading guides are the test reviews)

If you do the reading, the class is fairly easy and an A is very doable. If you don't do the reading, you'll struggle. He lectures are engaging, and goes over the key concepts from the reading in class. Overall an enjoyable class.

Not always the most fun class, but she knows the material and she does a very good job at relaying it to her students. If you go to class regularly, do the readings, and pay attention, it is not difficult to do well. She is very nice and she genuinely cares about her students.

Her class is on and off challenging. The quizzes vary from easy 100's and True/False quizzes. Her class is boring, and can seem like forever. If you went to a private school i would recommend this class. She is not as hard as i heard about religion classes.

not exactly a fun class, but not bad compared to other TCU religion classes. random easy reading quizzes that are a total grade booster, and if you just do the reading and study a decent amount a high B or A is doable. she's super sweet and approachable

Nicest professor, I'm a big fan.. Incredibly helpful especially with office hours. There isn't an easy religion class, but this is the one to take. Learned a ton. Managed an A, but it took a lot of studying despite having some biblical knowledge. Prepare before class and USE her reading guides. Drops 3 lowest quiz grades. 10 points extra credit.

Class is fairly hard if you don't know the bible well. Make sure to read and do study guides and you should easily get a B. Hot

Just do the reading guides! If it's on the study guide, it will definitely be on the test. The tests have essay portions, but she gives you a choice of prompts prior to taking the test so you have time to prepare. Very knowledgeable, sweet, and helpful! You have to attend class because there are pop quizzes but they're only worth 10% overall.

Very knowledgeable and really knows what she is talking about. She's super friendly and sweet and will help you if you need it. She cares about her students. Weekly quizzes normally on Fridays so that you go to class but they are SUPER easy as long as you do the reading. Drops your lowest quiz score. Tests have essays but she gives the prompts.

Not bad at all for the required religion class. Keep up with the reading though and do the study guides she gives you. Offers extra credit and curves the tests. Lots of athletes were in my class. TAKE HER! She's very nice and knowledgeable but can be a bit boring. Easy if you do your work and reading
