The decision
Key questions
Is this an easy A?
Students repeatedly call it an easy A because tests are open-book or take-home, extra credit is common, and grading is forgiving.
Both formats support easy grades, while online reviews add more warnings about homework volume.
Is the course easy?
The content is usually described as clear, interesting, and easy to follow, even when readings and assignments are frequent.
In-person reviews are more consistently easy, while online reviews include a few heavier workload complaints.
Is attendance flexible?
Some reviews mark attendance as mandatory, but many older comments do not clearly prove a consistent attendance rule.
Online reviews include both mandatory and non-mandatory attendance, while in-person evidence is mostly unclear with some attendance importance.
Is this professor recommended?
Students recommend her because she teaches clearly, cares about students, and makes grades very reachable.
Both formats are strongly recommended, though online summer or GE sections draw workload complaints.
