As an introductory course, the professors and TA's are very hesitant to take off points on your work even when you do the bare minimum like I did. I managed to get a grade over 100% after the course, and with drops, I didn't have to engage with the course after Thanksgiving. Easy A.","source_url":"https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/1871508","quality_rating":3.0,"difficulty_rating":1.0},{"observed_at":"2026-09-07 16:04:13.858181+00:00","run_id":"20260907T155543-ce3781c4","source_review_id":"UmF0aW5nLTM5Nzk1NzU1","source_instructor_id":"rmp:1871508","instructor_name":"Susan Paskewitz","course_label":"ENTOM205","course_id":"ENTOM/ENVIRST 205","course_uid":"course_10f2359ea814be11064c2731","review_date":"2024-10-08 19:47:31 +0000 UTC","comment":"she's annoying and assigns weird deadlines in the middle of the day (the assignments says due on Thursday but the first 1/2 is due Tuesday with no reminder) of the day, Will not give you an extension, but the class is easy but extremely boring.
