Comment:

I took this class last year fall quarter. Test grades are determined by dividing your score by the highest score in the class. I got an easy 4.0 because I got 100% on most tests, but this made my friends get a low grade. Also, his lectures are not helpful at all. I just didn't attend his class and studied off the textbook. Honestly, don't take him.

Comment:

Feedback are reposts of instructions. If you memorize ALL class material (lectures 1+ hrs per chapter, textbook, slides), you can barely pass. Grading is weird. 500 points total, all categories weighted equally. Final grade determined by your score divided by highest grade in class. Unable to view average grade total. Worst decision in 2020.

This professor is the worst!!! I took his class online and it is a requirement to pass his classes to not only read the book and take notes but also listen to him lecture on each chapter for two hours each. He tests on what he says in the lectures not what is in the book. Also his tests are timed, you have 10min to answer 10 questions.

Comment:

Tests are made to ensure that you know how to apply concepts, instead of simple problems such as defining terms. Your score is determined by dividing your score by the highest score in the class. All feedback/help that I received was poor or a repost of instructions for an assignment. TLDR: He is an amazing psychologist, but terrible instructor.

Comment:

This guy is probably the worst teacher I have ever had and I did not learn a single thing in the class that I did not already know. Yeah I got an A and I never read the textbook or watched the lectures but all of the information already made sense to me. To most people this class will be very challenging and you MUST read and watch lectures to pass

Comment:

He's okay, though his lectures can be on the longer side. Always follow the scoring rubric, he takes lots of points off for the littlest things otherwise. I guess you'll pass by reading the lecture notes, but if you want that anything above a 3.6, you better spend all your free time working through the textbook. Grades on a curve.

Jerry Marshall is funny but his lectures isn't what's on the test. I showed up to class everyday read the book completely passed all the big tests and still failed the class! He's a tough grader and gets off topic easily. I took this class to major in psychology and now I kind of want to change my mind. Please don't take this class!

Comment:

I believe that professor Marshall is a great teacher if youre serious about learning psychology. very funny too. Many people complain about him being a tough grader/bad teacher but its all about how much effort the student puts into learning the material. If you study your textbook and try your best on the assignments and tests, youll do fine.

Comment:

Lectures were a waste of time. Tests completely based off of text book and specific details. He's condescending and unhelpful. I learned absolutely nothing from his class. I stopped attending completely and my grade stayed the same, his lectures are just him blabbing about random things instead of staying on topic. This class is just an elective :/

Comment:

Prof Marshall is a very tough grader. I dont recommend his class at all. Docs points for stupid things even if you got the overall general point of assignment. Grades are locked so you cant see if you are passing or not. Ive never had a class this hard in my life. Literally crying and stressing out over this class. One of the worst teachers ever

Comment:

Professor Marshall keeps the class very interesting with his humor and stories, but also makes you work hard for your grade. Most important thing to do is to read the textbook and make sure you understand the material. The test questions are usually scenario-based so you wont do well if you dont truly understand the concepts and definitions.

His tests are completely different then the textbooks and he says if you read my textbook you will pass... I took so many practice quizzes, printed out extra material, studied on quizlet and I can't even get 80% on the exams. Half of the material on the tests is unrecognizable and not on his lectures or mentioned on any study materials. Stay clear.

Comment:

I was so excited for psych because I wanted to major In it and now I changed my mind because this class is so hard!! His tests were nothing like anything he taught us and I didn't recognize a lot of the material. His lectures are pointless because he talks about his life and things that wont be on the test. On the bright side he is funny.

Comment:

His lectures didn't help with any of the tests/quizzes at all. Not very helpful with understanding the material either + is kind of condescending & makes you feel bad for not understanding the material. You're better off using the book, I skipped all his classes, studied off the book, & got a B for the whole course. Way too hard for a 100 course.

Get ready to work for your grade. You have to read a lot and reread chapters to understand the concepts. Exams are multiple choice and are application questions. Hes a tough grader so follow instructions so you dont lose points on assignments. The person with the highest grade gets a 4.0 and everyone elses grades are based off that.

Comment:

Quizzes and Tests were a breeze due to great PowerPoints and Belsky's text! The assignments were killer. He would always find a way to mark me down points. I would email him for clarity, but he never made me feel confident in what I should have done with my assignments. Very vague. Not helpful. Don't take this class, keep your dang dignity.
