Grading on the Curve?

Ever wished you could grade your high school teacher, or do an evaluation of your college professor? At RateMyTeachers and its sister site RateMyProfessors, students (and former students) can register their comments on an instructor, and find out what others think of them.

There are three rating categories: Easiness (Is it possible to get an A without too much work?); Helpfulness (Are they approachable, willing to assist after class?); Clarity (How well do they convey the class topics?).

The site then calculates an Overall Quality based on the average of the instructor's Helpfulness and Clarity ratings.

I was actually amazed at the number of instructors I had who were on the list. Try it out and see!
