Tufts University: Gary McKissick - Community Health - Professor ratings, reviews and much more | JumboAccess
Review:
I read some of the reviews, and I am shocked, really. Let me put this into perspective... I am not one of those nerdy kids that ruin the curve for everyone--I'm actually the person at the bottom. But this class was just too easy. When I took it Spring 04, people did surprisingly bad on the midterm. Surprisingly, because although McKissick told us that we shouldn't base all our studying on the review sheet, that was all the midterm was. Plus, we had the choice to study hard for the final and not let the midterm count. We also had this choice for our final paper--if you felt you did better on the final paper than on the first one, you had the choice to make the final paper count for both (that is without knowing your grade on the final paper, of course). So he gave us opportunity after opportunity to improve our grade, so whoever's crying needs to stop. Seriously. Plus it's US healthcare for crying out loud! It doesn't get more complicated than that!!
Workload:
A small paper about communities, a midterm, a bigger paper about something (can't remember) and a final. Nothing much at all.
P.S. - we got a series of readings, and I probably did like 2 - just get a good T.A. that makes his students outline them, and you're set.
