Comment:
If you want to actually learn from a professor with real, diverse experience with large brands and a massive network to connect with, take her. Is it a hard class? Yes. But I feel like I grew a ton and have a much deeper understanding of good advertising. Cant handle criticism? Good luck in your career.

Comment:
Literally horrible. So disrespectful and not professional. Wont reply to emails, huge ego. The class is all tests and one group project. Tests are purposely made to be tricky. Every presentation was interrupted and critiqued right in front of the whole class instead of in a separate format. I could go on forever about her, not enough characters!

Comment:
Do not take her. Non consistent grading criteria and seems to never be happy with any work. Really really makes you work for a good grade, and even if she somewhat likes your work, she picks it apart and makes you feel bad about your work. Only take her if you want to be on ad team. Very difficult person and grader.

Comment:
I normally don't write reviews, but this one is necessary. Do not take her if you can help it. It seems as though she makes up what she wants to talk about in lecture as she goes because it doesn't follow the syllabus whatsoever. Her grading is harsh and feedback is not helpful. Doesn't answer questions or emails. Makes fun of students.

Melissa Burnett is one of the worst professors I have had. Her lectures are pointless, she promises bonus points that are never given and she gives unhelpful feedback. I would never take her again.

Assigns unorganized work and seems to fly by the seat of her pants. Learned a lot about creative advertising, but no matter what your opinion is, hers is always superior.

Very cool professor. Project based class. Has tons of real world experience/advice so I really feel I'm learning valuable stuff. Don't need a book but expect to spend some of that money on project materials. No tests. Get on her good side because she picks ad team members.

Best professor I've had. Genuinely cares about students and pushes us to our full potential. People hate on her a lot because they can't handle criticism. I learned so much about how to create great advertising. If you want a career in the advertising industry, take this class! But if you dont, do not take this class because it's a lot of work.

Dr. Burnett is a fantastic instructor. She is very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. However, if you don't come to class you will miss a lot of the information for tests! TIP: Print your slides before class and take notes! It will be an easy A for you if you pay attention, study notes, come to class. Book is not mandatory but helpful before exams!!

This is by far the worst professor I've ever had. She's a bully, plays her favorites, and expects you to drop EVERYTHING for her class. Do not take her if you have any interest in Advertising, she'll make you hate it. Creative is not about making creative ads, it's an event planning class where she shoves her personal agenda down your throat.

She means well, but can't keep herself organized. She has too much going on with Ad Team and her grad class. She wants you to work extremely hard and gives hardly any points. Her class is frustrating, although she is very enthusiastic and wants her students to do well.

Do not take this class unless you absolutely must! She teaches NOTHING and expects you to learn by trial and error, while recieving poor grades at the same time. I spent HOURS on projects to later learn that we got absolutely NO CREDIT for them. Some of them got an occasional 10 points. Join Ad team and you might have a chance at an A in the class

Not a bad class. Just go to class. Reviews are not very clear but just study the online quizes. Also if your in class you get easy quiz points. An easy B for sure.

She is a great professor, study power points for tests and you will do ok. Pretty funny, likes to keep class entertained. Just a couple of tests and final. Likes to give bonus points on Fridays!!

She is really one of the best teachers I've had. When it comes to getting a job, she is hard on you so that you learn and can really make in the real world. I now have a job, and I learned so much from her. Plus one of the reasons she works you so hard is so that you have respectable examples that are necessary for getting a job.

Awful class. Don't expect to get any points for effort. Grades only on the final product. Go suck up ALL SEMESTER in her office hours and it will improve your grade. Overly Critical by far and it has NOTHING to do with being LAZY-it has everything to do with how much you kiss up-COMPLETELY SUBJECTIVE-NO TESTS. You get what she gives you.

Burnett is by far the worst teacher I have EVER had. She is completely condesending and has an awful personality. I've always been an A student, and I'm getting a C in this class. She doesnt TEACH anything. She tells you to try to do it then makes you stand in front of the class and tells everyone that she hates everything you did. Don't take her!

Well, if you think you like advertising, take this class to change your mind. Be ready to hear the terms "dinked this up" (as said before) and "good concept. develop it more" about 1000 times. Thank you Burnett for making me NOT want to do this anymore.
