Comment:
If you have the chance to take this class with another professor, do it. I currently have a D in her class with A's in every other class INCLUDING calc 2. She is not forgiving on any type of homework assignment or quizzes and expects you to know things that she has never gone over, and then gets mad at you for not understanding.

Dr. Mack, is a super sweet lady! You literally could talk to her about anything. However, she is a super hard grader which can be really frustrating. Most kids did not do well on the midterm in my class. It also is hard to know what she wants to get a good grade which can be frustrating. If you have the option I would take someone else.

Comment:
Dr. Mack is very sweet but I had a tough time really enjoying her class. Dr. Mack is a tough grader and takes off quarter points that really add up when grading lesson plans, tests, and quizzes. There is a lot of homework that took way too much time for it only to be out of 4 points. You will succeed with a different professor.

Dr. Mack is really nice, but she is crazy when it comes to school. You have homework almost everyday and it takes hours. You need it a specific way otherwise it is wrong. She wants you to succeed she just makes it difficult to do so. If I had to take her again I would, but if there is someone else, pick them.

350 characters is not enough to explain how great Dr. Mack truly is! The amount that I learned in her class is beyond measure. Yes, you do need to work hard to receive a good grade, but she is so caring, sweet, and willing to help. I have never had a professor who genuinely cared about their students as Dr. Mack does, & her feedback is incredible!!

Comment:
Dr. Mack is a sweet lady, and I truly believe her intentions are good. However, be prepared to spend hours on homework, not leaving a single detail out. She can be frustrating sometimes because she marks off points for not being detailed enough. I feel like most of the class was busy work and focusing on details that wont matter in the long run

Comment:
Don't expect an A, ok? Dr. Mack will take every fraction of a point possible away from you. If you don't phrase your response exactly how she wants you to word it, than its wrong, and you don't get to argue points back. My class all studied together for our midterms, one girl got a 9/45. Thats not even the worst part. Run while you can.

Comment:
Dr. Mack. I want to so badly say that she wasn't super bad, because she is a nice person, however, she is NOT a good teacher. She will tell you in the beginning that she loves, and I mean LOVES fractions. This is actually code for she likes taking off fractions of points on every single thing you do. 100% is unobtainable in this class. Don't take!

Definitely the best professor I have ever had at Grand Valley. Yes, she is a somewhat tough grader, but her expectations are very reasonable and she will go above and beyond to help you succeed in her class. She is so genuine and sweet, and truly cares about her students.

She is very knowledgeable in her courses, but she is very specific, even when you don't need to be. When we say things, they have to be said perfectly, otherwise she will tell us we are wrong. Personally, I did not liked the way that she talked very slow and had a high pitched voice. It would drive me crazy. She knows her stuff, but isnt the best.

Good professor. She's very understanding if you communicate and are putting clear effort into class. Not an easy A, but it's possible. You have to try in this class, as you should any college course. She's a tough grader but if you know your material you will do just fine. She doesn't use blackboard but she does give progress reports throughout.

She expects great work from her students which is lacking in college. Most students want things handed to them. Take her if you want a challenge led by a great professor. Only people who are unwilling to put in effort will say this class is "impossible". She is always willing to help and she's super sweet :) good luck guys!!

Dr. Mack was a great professor. She will help you whenever you need it. She expects great quality work, which should be expected considering we barely had to do anything in the class. She gave us multiple extra credit opportunities and a lot of feedback. Know that you have to try in this class it's not an easy A but very doable.

Dr. Mack was probably a wonderful elementary teacher, but a college professor? Not so much. Her grading doesn't make any sense and her exams/quizzes are impossible.

NEVER TAKE HER... EVER! She is evil! She does not help at all. She does not make time for her students. With homework, quizzes, and projects, she will tell you how to do it one way but grade completely different. She has made me cry on several occasions. She is very unorganized and an absolutely terrible teacher.

She is a very tough grader, sometimes so hard it is impossible to pass. She is also very rude to many students and she has caused many students to cry. She wants everything done her way and if it is not done that way it is wrong.

Nancy Mack knows how to teach but when it comes to handing in exams or homework, you don't know what to expect when it comes to your grade. I attended every class, participated, handed in all of the work, and asked for help many times and I still have to retake the class. There was even a time when my group got screamed at for talking. Do not take!
