Dr. varko was so clear on what is excepted and that helped us succeed. If you take her for human dev be prepared that she tests with all essays. However she does provide an extensive study guide which she does not deviate from. You have to show for lectures and she makes them interactive. She is one of the best in the department

Dr. Orsolya was fantastic! I was nervous taking stats after being away from college for a while and she broke the material down into digestible pieces. Dr. Varko went out of her way to meet after class and not just office hours. She made her lectures interesting using real life examples and from her own research. She was kind and cool too. You have be prepared to submit weekly homework but she dropped the lowest of 12 submissions.

Dr. V was so nice, funny too and explained the material in development psych so well. She used her own slides and gave us extra notes all posted on BB. The tests were challenging because it was short answers so you have to study but she gave us a clear summary sheet to study from. No tricks / straight forward. She is one of the best in the department!

Words are noy enough to describe professior V. So inspirational and friendly with the students. She has a clear outline for the whole semester. She gives you 17-20 questions for the exam and 10 comes from them. She even gives the answer so you know what is exactly coming in the exam. She is a GPA booster. Best professor i got in Baruch.
