There are a couple reading and videos to watch for leacture that are important to do, but overall she is a good proffesor just hope you have a good TA. ",

Then she asks for multiple sources to be used per answer, when each reading does not relate to the others. It is impossible to give a good response with the given materials. so stupid",
