Morehead State University / H / Kay Holley

I was pleased with this class overall. One student posted that she seemed disorganized, and complained about the final test day. It is true that she gave us the last test, in addition to the final on the same day, but, she let the class decide as to whether or not this was done. The CLASS chose to do the testing this way. She stated when she got to class that she had some problem with the copying of the exam (i believe she went to the local copy shop that morning and they failed to complete her order.) Even though a few students waited, I stayed well after the allotted time, and she was still there. (I would say at least 30 minutes after the allotted time.) I felt Mrs. Holley to be a very good teacher; and I know I learned a great deal from her class. She made the material relevant to every day life, and was open to any questions about any material that may have seemed unclear. I think if any students had 'trouble' with her, it was because they were not paying attention in class or were not there, and it is because of that that they were surprised by anything on the tests, or the way the tests were distributed. If you approach this class like any other, and show up, listen, take notes, and study you will do fine.

I was very disappointed in this class overall. I was primarily disappointed with the final exam day. Not only did she cover all of the material that was going to be on the final exam(which consisted of minerals, vitamins, pregnancy) the last class before the exam day...but she also covered material that was going to be on the final chapter exam. On the day of the exam we had an exam over the last unit which consisted of 50 multiple choice questions, but we also after that had to take our cumulative final exam which consisted of 100 multiple choice questions. Then when it came time to begin the testing session, four students had to wait for ten minutes because she did not have enough copies of the test for everyone in the class. I was cheated out of ten minutes that I could have been working on my exams while I was waiting for her to get her act together. I feel as though Mrs. Holley is very disorganized and I was very let down by this class. She told us before the exam that we should just study our handouts and that none of the questions would be from the book. On both exams there were at least 10 questions that stated "According to your book..." She also took time out of our exam period to go over concepts that would be on both exams that she did not cover in class. I was highly let down by this class, and now I fear that because of her lack of organization and planning mine as well as fifty other students GPA will suffer for it.
