Comment:

Class discussion was very informative, but you have to do the reading to do well on the tests. If you do the reading, the tests are so easy they're almost funny. She is probably the nicest person in Ashland's faculty and is willing to work with students who are having trouble with anything.

Comment:

She is sweet and grandmotherly but her tests are killer. The book for her class is your bible, DO read it. She is really nice and generous but she looks for detail that is easy to miss.

Comment:

Took her for cross-cultural psych, easy tier class...the tests are a bit ridiculous but she will change things around so everyone does ok in the class. Nicest lady, she's a really cool older woman. Basically just 4 tests and a really easy presentation, not hard to do well.

Boring as CRAP, no joke. Test are way too hard and are never over what we talk about in class... I could keep going, but it's enough for you to know: DON'T TAKE HER CLASS!

Comment:

She is one of the nicest people ever. She is always willing to help you if you need it. There is a lot of material for Developmental psych, but if you do it then you will be fine. The tests are fairly extensive and cover a lot. But that is probably the hardest part of the class. She really is very nice and reminds me A LOT of my grandmother:)

I felt bad for dropping her class because she really is like a grandmother. I just couldn't handle doing a project presentation after two weeks without being taught anything and on a subject we never talked about.

Comment:

I have Petrill for Developmental Psych... This class is killing me... Too much stuff to do in it for a 200 level class... my 300 level psych class is 10X easier than this one... Although it is rather easy if you put the work into it... the work itself is just tedious and ALOT!

Comment:

The monotany of her class bored me at times, but it wasn't that bad. As long as you read the texts, pay attention, and turn things in on time, the class really isn't that bad. She could be a little boring at times though...

Comment:

Her tests are impossible class is extremely boring all she does is lecture and isnt very interesting, you do have papers due and those help your grade out, but the tests are so frustrating. Get another professor for this class

Comment:

Dr. Petrill is a great professor I think. Alot of people don't like her, but I think she is really understanding about having things due, etc. She is an easy grader when it comes to individual work like papers or discussions, but her tests are kinda hard.

Tests are hard, but you write papers to compensate. Very fun, likes to talk and makes assignments clear for students. Is willing to change test dates for students if needed.

Tests seem impossible to pass, never know what is going to be on it. She babbles in class and her lectures are unclear. Went to get help once and she stared at me like, "what are you doing here?!" Not a fan!
