Online reviews call the class not an easy A, while in-person reviews show A-range grades but with attendance and project pressure.
Is the course easy?
The course is reading-heavy, fast-paced in some sections, and relies on textbook understanding rather than simple lecture summaries.
Online evidence is harsher about pace and feedback, while in-person evidence emphasizes steady reading and participation.
Is attendance flexible?
Several in-person reviews say attendance matters or is mandatory, while online reviews are mixed or optional.
In-person sections show stronger attendance pressure, while online sections are often listed as not mandatory except one review.
Is this professor recommended?
