Basically just relied on other professors' lecture slides and videos. Was just super disorganized and never started exams on time but then hurried us to finish at the end. Would not take again.",

The class was much harder because her teaching and explanations didn't make sense. Exams fair, but no feedback ever given. Final is NOT representative of the work done in class.",
