Its easy to do well in this class if you show up to lecture and do the assignments. Lots of extra credit and they were super flexible with makeups when I had to miss class

This was a okay class but the lectures were terrible. She calls out on certain students for the littlest things and makes you feel very uncomfortable if you don't want to participate. The TAs were great but as for this professor, highly don't recommend.

We covered so much for an intro class but Professor Senderowicz breaks everything down in a way that's really accessible and clear. She really does her best to get everyone to learn and the whole teaching team genuinely you to succeed. There's a ton of flexibility around deadlines and accommodations.

Easy grader and tons of extra credit chances. You have to show up to lecture but the topics are interesting and really easy to follow. The professor genuinely cares about making the material clear and my TAs was super helpful too. Quizzes and exams are all open book.

Dr. Senderowicz is a sub-par prof. She is a very tough grader (esp for an intro class) and will not make exceptions for students. She is also inaccessible outside of class and never follows up on emails from students, relies on TAs to handle all student communication and the TAs get overwhelmed. Giving a 2 only bc lectures are engaging.
