    "comment": "5th semester Japanese's curriculum is laughable. YOUR JAPANESE WON'T IMPROVE! You learn about a lot of useless topics and Professor Geyer admits to intentionally trying to trick students on exams rather than testing their knowledge. She's kind, but my Japanese did not improve a lick during the course. The dept. does not know how to teach Japanese.",

Attendance and homework are mandatory and longer than previous semesters. Random partners each meeting means you practice more outside your friend group, she expects greatness from everyone daily.",

Pretty unfair to people that aren't already proficient in the language or who don't avidly watch Japanese television or film. Before taking this class make sure you know all the kanji you have already learned by heart, and then try to add 100 more.",
