Efforts never paid off. Grading is not quite fair and you never know what she is expecting. Assignment schedule is clear though.

Pretty easy class, didn't have many assignments but when you do they're large. Seems easy to pull a B but difficult to get an A

She is pretty good. Class is way harder than what a 2 credit Comm A class should be. I honestly would have rather taken Comm A 100. I recommend the prof but not the class
