Comment:

This class sucks. It's very hard and it almost seems as though it should be for atmo majors. The average test scores are in the low 70's or 60's. Her lectures are incredibly boring and you will want to fall asleep within the first five minutes. The Lab teacher is a pretty cool dude and you can get an A in that but lecture is another story.

Comment:

Probably one of the absolute worst professors I have ever had. Extremely rude and not helpful in any sort of way. Very lethargic with her lectures and has a tendency to talk down to people - the course material I absolutely enjoyed but her negative attitude was such a buzzkill. AVOID AT ALL COST!!!

Comment:

Although I found the subject matter to be interesting, I did not enjoy her attitude. She was often rude and did not seem to care about the students very much. Although she knew the material, she was unenthusiastic and boring. Overall, I would not take her class unless you absolutely have to.

Comment:

Not only is Tucker a horrible teacher, but a rude person as well. I took this class thinking that I would enjoy it more than a regular biology or chemistry class and it has turned into being a horrible mistake. Do not take this class unless you are planning on majoring in meteorology, you will soon regret it. Wish I would have dropped it before.

Comment:

Honestly, don't take this class. It's hell. Run for your drop slip. Take something else because they test you like this is your major. I received a C in it and i'm an A student. Believe me its not worth it. I was interested in this class and it would have been interesting if she wasn't teaching.

Comment:

She's awful. She doesn't help you review for the tests or final. The test have questions on them that she never went over. The final is comprehensive and she just expects you to know what to study. She's an awful teacher. By far the worst i've ever had. DON'T TAKE HER CLASS! It's an intro class but she tests you like it's your major.

Comment:

The average for tests is a 70% but if you treat this class as something new and you have never learned before, you should get higher scores. This class goes much further in depth than what you learned in Elementary school and you must read.. (Just as a word of caution)

Comment:

Wow, RUN, don't walk to get your drop-slip. If I had known at the beginning of the semester what I know now- I would have gotten the hell out of this class. The class may be actually interesting if taken from someone else, but avoid Prof. Tucker like the plague.

Comment:

I took this class because it sounded interesting. It could have been, if Satan hadn't sent his spawn to teach the course. The tests were terribly worded, and the average grade on each test was about a 65% or so. I was in the top 10% of the class at the end of the grades, and I had an 83%... tell you anything? This is not an easy A. Do not take

DO NOT TAKE METEOROLOGY AS AN EASY LAB CREDIT. it is hellllllllllllllllll. They use Atmo 105 to weed out the serious ATMO majors. Take physics.

Comment:

I am an A student and missed lecture only twice the entire semester, took every online quiz until I got a perfect score, had an A in lab, and a high B average on tests and yet that wasn't enough to get an A. Professor Tucker has a terrible teaching style (not to mention an incredibly annoying voice ), and does nothing to make material interesting.

She is horrible. As boring as I can be, and I agree with the person who said she was rude. Her tests suck as well. I also agree about Tanya, she was fantastic and hot as hell. She made the class great.
