She's so passive aggressive in assignment feedback. Very picky with research assignments mind you I've never had any prior experience with research and she's aware that is a common theme among many. Lectures are boring as well.PSYC3466 2026-04-24 19:33:44 +0000 UTC
Dr.Bilge's lectures are extremely boring and do not cover any real content - it is mostly common sense with random examples and useless exercises we have to do. Her feedback on assignments is nothing as well. Her tests also have such bad directions, the class itself is easy, but she basically grades on how much she likes you.PSYCH3458 2024-11-25 18:49:32 +0000 UTC
Extremely easy class and Professor Bilge is really understanding. Lectures are fun as she tells a lot of stories and examples, but this comes back to bite as the exams are much more difficult than what is covered in class. Even though textbook isn't mentioned in the lectures, studying it is required to pass the exam.PSYC1101 2022-11-28 21:16:12 +0000 UTC
Terrible professor. Super confusing and talked really fast. Never went to lectures and still passed the class.PSYC3458 2022-04-26 21:12:35 +0000 UTC
She goes on these tangents and most of time the questions on her exam is not addressed in class. She doesn't teach in a linear manner, so if you don't learn effectively that way avoid her at all cost!! She has an attitude sometimes which makes it hard to be interested in her content. Keep your sanity and peace.PSYCH1101 2022-02-24 18:34:50 +0000 UTC
Professor Bilge is a lovely person and highly passionate about psychology. However, she struggles to stay organized, and her lectures are often challenging to understand because she goes all over the place. Her teaching style didn't work for me, so I had to teach myself to keep my grade up.PSYC101 2021-12-06 18:47:53 +0000 UTC
Class is manageable, but exams are very difficult and time pressured. The main issue is the amount of work in a limited time. It is hard to finish even if you understand the material. You need a lot of practice and strong time management. Lectures are okay, but you will need to study on your own.PSYC3466 2026-04-15 23:46:39 +0000 UTC
Ignores textbook, just unorganized lectures. Lectures slides are 99% pictures and INCOMPLETE sentences. Test are MC and fill in the blank with no word bank, so she wants you to read her mind, I guess. Random topics on test, useless study guide, & tiny curve. Attendance is "not mandatory," but if you don't go to class you will definitely fail.PSYCH3458 2022-03-22 17:50:09 +0000 UTC
Prof Bilge is a really nice and funny prof and she tries to get her students to understand the topics. You do have to come to class in the off chance she gives an ICA. She is very understanding though and caring. Exams aren't that bad but she does rely on examples she used in class.PSYC1101 2022-11-24 16:24:37 +0000 UTC
If you love yourself, your life, or your major even a little bit, don't take this class.PSYC3458 2022-03-22 17:56:09 +0000 UTC
She is the worst professor I have ever had. With the way she teaches, you have to study a ton on your own. Prepare for horrible slides and her talking to herself the entire class. Other psych professors offer an easier class. She makes it difficult for no reason. SHE IS HORRIBLE!!PSYCH1101 2021-12-15 16:04:38 +0000 UTC
she is passive aggressive in emails and in grading feedback. her comments on assignments are condescending and she will type in all caps and yell. she is unclear with grading criteria/takes points off for specific thingsPSYC3466 2025-12-18 20:33:34 +0000 UTC
Shes one of those teachers who makes very weird comments thinking its funny. She never has clear answers when a student asks her a great question, instead she pretends like she didnt hear it. She assigns a lot of work and your grade is based on 2 midterms and a final. Participation matters a lot!!PSYCH3458 2021-12-21 19:38:25 +0000 UTC
Professor Bilge took the class's feedback regarding her exams and teaching and implemented it to make the learning experience better for everyone.PSYC1101 2022-06-09 04:31:27 +0000 UTC
Lectures are just her slides. Must go to class to get credit for in-class-only questions. Tests are manageable, just make sure to take notes/study slides after every lecture; leans more self-study than in-class learning. 2 midterms, 1 final, each worth 25%. Very helpful if you ask specific questions. It's a content-heavy memorization course.PSYC3458 2021-12-21 16:19:23 +0000 UTC
