Saved Help + WHAT ARE YOUR RATING GUIDELINES? Check out our Site Guidelines for a list of acceptable rating guidelines. + WHY CAN'T I SEE THE RATINGS FOR THE PROFESSOR I ADDED, AND WHY IS HIS/HER NAME LISTED IN GRAY? Before your newly added professor is displayed in our search results, your entry will need to be verified and approved by our moderators in the order it’s received. Grayed out professors have not yet been approved by our moderators. NOTE: Submitting a duplicate professor could cause further delay, so hold tight and check back soon! + WILL A PROFESSOR KNOW THAT I HAVE RATED HIM/HER? Nope! We don't display any of your personal information anywhere on the site. Though you have the option of creating an account , an account is not required to post a rating and comment. Whether you choose to create a registered account or not, all ratings submitted will remain anonymous! + AREN'T MOST OF THE RATINGS ON THE SITE NEGATIVE FROM STUDENTS WHO ARE TRYING TO GET EVEN WITH THEIR PROFESSORS? No way! Well over half of the ratings on the site are positive. In fact, each year, we compile a list of the top professors based on ratings and comments from students. Find out the highest rated professors of 2012-2013 here . + WHY WAS MY COMMENT DELETED? Comments that are inconsistent with Site Guidelines are removed by our moderators. + CAN I FLAG A COMMENT OR PROFESSOR NOTE THAT I THINK SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM YOUR SITE? Yes, you can. Flag comments or professor notes by clicking "report this rating" on the comment or note in question, and our moderators will review. Comments and notes that are inconsistent with Site Guidelines will be removed. + HOW DO YOU TALLY YOUR RATINGS? When rating a professor, refer to these definitions of Rate My Professors' ratings categories. Overall Quality (good: 5-3.5, Average: 3.4-2.5, poor: 2.4-1) The average of a professor's Helpfulness and Clarity ratings determines the type of "smiley face" the professor gets. The Easiness and Hotness ratings are not included in the Overall Quality calculation. helpfulness (very helpful: 5, not helpful: 1) Is this professor approachable, nice and easy to communicate with? How accessible is the professor and is he/she available during office hours or after class for additional help? clarity (crystal clear: 5, confusing: 1) How well does the professor teach the course material? Were you able to understand the class topics based on the professor's teaching methods and communication style? The following rating categories do not factor into the overall quality score given to a professor: Easiness (easy: 5, hard: 1) Some students want to know how easy or difficult a class is before they register. Is this class an easy A? How much work needs to be done in order to get a good grade? textbook use (often: 5, barely: 1) Did this professor use the suggested textbook often or not at all? professor hotness Is your professor hot? Hot professors get a red chili pepper rating. Average grade Raters can share the grades they received in a professor's class when rating the professor. The Average Grade a professor gives is calculated from the grades indicated by raters. N/A means a grade hasn't been provided. We reserve the right to make any changes to the Ratings Categories and scoring in our sole discretion. + WHY DIDN'T THE CHILI PEPPER I GAVE MY PROFESSOR SHOW UP? The chili pepper is based on the sum of the "hot" and "not hot" ratings: "hot" is a +1 and "not hot" is a -1. A chili pepper only appears if the total is positive. If it's zero or negative, no chili pepper is displayed. + I FORGOT MY PASSWORD! HOW CAN I RESET IT? Forgot your password? Go here to reset your password. + HOW DO I CREATE AN ACCOUNT? If you are a student you should create a student account , and note that all ratings submitted with a registered account still remain anonymous!
