Professor Fallahi is rude, and thinks too highly of herself. Basic class just sit there and look at slides but don't ask her to go back to a slide because she will get mad. Love psych but she made it miserable..

I took this course in a class size of 300. She makes the lectures interesting for a class that is so large and difficult to pay attention in. Tests are extensive but you are allowed one sided sheet of notes per exam and there are study guides. You can do up to 30 points of extra credit. Occasionally in class worksheets are handed out.

She explains terms thoroughly and offered extra cred assignments about every week. If taking dev. psych , do not rent the book because you will need the connect card to access online material. Buy it instead w/ card. Four exams total and drops lowest exam grade, so I did not have to take final. Come to every class and do all the work to do well.

She's great! Her lectures are all from power points online. If you don't do well on a test, there's plenty of homework and other grades she puts in that'll make up for it. She's hilarious and very passionate on what she talks about and knows her stuff. Easy A

Mrs. Fallahi is absolutely amazing! I started off a little rough due to personal situation but she worked with me and I could trust her and talk to her. she is very understanding and her classes are very good. One thing is her class is very big. I have over 200 students in my life span class, but that's about it. I would recommend her for sure!!

Her lectures contain a lot of into, but at the same time they aren't explained very well. She is very very sweet though and accessible to answer any questions you may have in and outside of class. For her tests, you can have cheat sheets which helped a lot.

Nice professor, but she excepts you to drop everything for this one class. Study guides take hours to do (if you put that kind of time in). Lectures where okay, just a lot to handle in one sitting. Not a terrible class but not the best either.

The class was not what I expected, it was a joke really, full sheet cheat sheets for tests, bad grades dropped, deadlines sometimes extended. There was no motivation for me to learn. I did not learn in this class, the grades were handed to me. If youre looking for an A with minimal work, here it is.

Does not reqiure a lot of effort in this class. If you do the assignments and look over powerpoints, youll pass. And if you actually study, you'll get an A for sure.

Rude. She does not seem to want to help students with the experiences I have had with her. When at office hours she belittled me over a mistake she made and failed to apologize.

Dr. Fallahi is the best Psychology professor I've ever had. I absolutely loathe Psych, but she genuinely made most of the material interesting. Dr. Fallahi gives lectures which line up directly with the material on the tests and will always give you nearly immediate feedback on emails you send her. If you get the option to take her, do it!

Her lectures are based off of powerpoints that she posts on BlackBoard, so if you skip class, you should be okay. She drops a ton of grades at the end of the semester so if you forget an online quiz, just do well on the others. Has online homework, not too hard. Her lectures inspired me to declare psychology as a major, this professor is amazing!

One of my favorite professors ever. She's really nice and talks a lot so get ready to hear a lot of her own stories. She gets off topic often but some of her stories are pretty funny. She lets you use a note card every exam and she sometimes curves a grade when the whole class does bad on an exam.

I have gotten 100s on ALL of her homework assignments and I am BARELY passing. As if being in a lecture hall isn't bad enough, she is extremely test heavy and reliant. Both times i have personally contacted her she was very rude. Seems approachable when teaching, but when approached for clarification or questions, shes not so nice. DONT TAKE!

Easy A. Drops your lowest test score so if you're happy with your first three exams, you don't need to take the final. Absolutely would take again.
