The decision
Key questions
Is this an easy A?
High grades are common when students do the homework and use extra credit, but the workload prevents this from being a true easy A.
Online reviews give stronger evidence that tests match homework, while in-person reviews show both generous support and severe confusion.
Is the course easy?
Chemistry content is manageable for prepared students, but fast lectures and heavy tracking make the course feel demanding.
Online difficulty is often tied to pace and homework management, while in-person difficulty is tied to lecture clarity and lab grading.
Is attendance flexible?
Many reviews mark attendance as mandatory or say lecture attendance is needed to pass.
Both online and in-person evidence often points to required or strongly necessary attendance, with one online review reporting optional attendance.
Is this professor recommended?
Students recommend her when they value extra credit and support, but the negative reviews are intense enough to make her a conditional choice.
Online reviews are somewhat more favorable, while in-person reviews are sharply split between helpful and very confusing.

Remote format
High confidence · Best fit for Effort For Reward
Online reviews are mixed but lean positive when students attend lecture, do homework, and use her support.
Main concern
Fast lectures and heavy homework can make online chemistry feel hard to manage.
What students said
“If you go to lecture + do HW you'll be more than fine... (her tests are nearly identical to the homework!)”
“So much work and hw took forever but always willing to help and responds to canvas messages.”
“She went way too fast and felt awkward in asking for help.”
Exam style
Tests can be manageable because several reviews say they match homework or can be curved, but reviews do not clearly prove online proctoring or open-book rules.
