Comment:
Has recently switched to all of her exams being short answer. Only some of the questions she gives partial credit. She gives you a "study guide" prior to the exam but it's super vague and only about 25-30% of it is actually on the exam. She doesn't let you look at your graded exam either so you're magically supposed to know what you got wrong

Comment:
Dr. Stark has recently switched to a all-written exam format. She does give study guides to help compensate, however, the study guides are incredibly general and will require you to learn way more than what is actually on her exams. Furthermore, you can't look over your exam with her because she thinks everyone will cheat, which lacks logic.

Comment:
If you are looking to pay college tuition for a course that requires you to memorize a textbook this is the perfect class for you! Learned nothing from lectures. Stark either does not know the concepts of OB well or just does not know how to convey them to the class. Make sure you read, because that is the only way you will pass this course.

Comment:
She does not give study guides, and does not answer questions during tests. You have to read the book, and understand the concepts in order to do well. She is a very nice person, and very passionate about nursing research, and has a lot of experience. Great professor.

Comment:
Dr. Stark is a highly experienced instructor. She expects you to show her respect and do your best. Anyone who fails her class, really did not put forth the effort that is required to be a nurse. She does have flaws, as do we all. She takes her questions from a test bank for both 2200 and 3200, so every question has been seen if you have READ!!

Comment:
Dr. Stark is extremely intelligent, quite intimidating but she will encourage you to be professional and respectful. Her lecture is strict, she lays done the law BUT she communicates well with the group and is FLEXIBLE with test scheduling. Best advice for her class...be respectful and attentive AND read/skim the chapters B4 the test

Great Teacher, really knows her stuff. The class weeds out those who are not committed to the program, so READ READ READ she is very fair, and I loved having her as a professor, even though it was strict lecture.

yes it's true, stark makes you turn in your papers on time. what a concept. if you heard she is scary, she actually isnt that bad. she expects a lot out of you because she wants everyone to be great nurses. but if you have a bunch of tests in a week, she'll negotiate moving things back. read early, study hard because her tests are very specific.

this teacher has no consideration towards first year students. Expectations are extremely high and unfair to first year level students. Talking about this situation with this professor does no good..she doesn't give a****. So when you take a test from her, you will looking for lucky pennies (aka. you pass with luck). we hate her
