The overall expectations didn't often align with what the TA's were saying. Due dates changed every week. Group project expectations also were not consistent. He told us to prepare presentation without reading off slides, but that's what he did. It was easy if you actually paid attention.

Quality 3/5Difficulty 2/5
The class was very straightforward. Most of your grade is the semester-long group project. There were incorrect due dates on the canvas site and it didn't have the best organization overall. There were also a lot of times where Dr. C gave contradicting information regarding project expectations that didn't align with TA's expectations.

The class was decent but had its frustrations. Attendance (15%) was mandatory, but lectures were just reading off slides. Two exams (7.5%) were simple if you understood the content. The group project (45%) and presentation (25%) were fine with a good group. Course page lacked clarity due to outdated info. Overall, good. Could be more organized.
