Overall she lectures well, but I found myself spending more time outside of class to understand her topics. The labs also required some outside class hours but the TAs are also helpful to guide you through completing lab reports!",

Sometimes it felt like she didn't know what she was talking about and was just reading off the slides. A TON of content, way more than the first two units. Exam was decently straightforward, but very small details ended up on the exam.",
