Labs were easy and you didn't really have to show up unless working with your group. Difficult if you've never used python before but the prof and the TA were available for help as much as possible, and even provided sample code for some of the labs. Used roughly the typical grading scale

Legitimately one of the kindest professors I've ever had who has such a genuine care for her students and the field. Sometimes she words things confusingly on test and homework, but the quality of her lectures and caring nature to her students far outweighs that.

Snej is one of the kindest professors I've had in my undergraduate career. She always made sure to reach out to students regarding mental health, and automatically curved students who were close to the next grade when inputting grades. The exams and homework were extremely easy through her making sure everyone was given formula sheets.

Great professor, I just suck at math and science. There is a final and midterm (online), as well as two group projects and bi-weekly open note quizzes, which you get 3 chances at getting all correct.

she changes grading weight and scale all the time. Homework is nothing like what she teaches as well as the exam. Some of them says she is nice but I don't agree with that at all. All of sudden she changes the cutoff for A higher in the last minute. It does not seem like she wants people to learn. She cares about grade more than learning.

Prof Stanimirovic is one of the most caring professors that I ever had. She is very kind and sweet and willing to help out all of her students. Her lectures were pretty much copying lecture slides but she always would try to do add stuff to make it interesting. Took time for acknowledging our mental health and was very approachable. Loved her.
