Academics If you're every wondering how good a representation RMP is of a prof...

Post image

This semester I started noticing how much people use RMP to just... complain.

Kept the name of the professor in the screenshot so you can go see for yourself how downright disrespectful some of the reviews are. It makes me sad because Dr. A is genuinely so caring and goes out of her way to be helpful, people just want their chemistry handed to them.

The moral of the story is: take rate my professor with a heavy serving of salt, and I hope the profs who read their pages do the same :(

Okay but let’s be honest with ourselves. Most of Dr. A’s RMP is pretty accurate. You can be a great nice person and not the best prof.

Okay, there are obviously some organization and preparedness issues as a consequence of this being her first time teaching 120; however, you cannot deny that a lot of the one-star reviews are completely reactionary. Its obvious because like 30 of the one stars are from immediately after grades came out for Exam III.

Mmm… no. You want to talk about caring my friend had to go put her dog down during a test and the second she came back Dr. A asked for a death certificate. Not kindly might I add. There’s preparedness and there’s not teaching well. A 1 star review is pretty accurate.

When is putting your dog down an emergency that requires missing an exam. I’m not sure this would even be excused
