The entire time, she would just be reading massive blocks of R code or reading formulas instead of saying anything useful or informative. She is a very nice woman, but I would definitely avoid her class.",

She cannot convey the material clearly and in a manner that makes it easier to understand. SAVE YOUR GPA AND AVOID HER CLASSES. Don't make the same mistake I made. ",

Lectures were mostly her reading off slides. Little to no in-class examples done. Exams were written in a gotcha manner and did not match lecture difficulty well.",
