The decision
Key questions
Is this an easy A?
A high grade is very realistic because grading is lenient and extra credit appears often, but weekly work still takes time.
Online evidence strongly supports an easy A with steady work, while in-person evidence is positive but less consistent.
Is the course easy?
The content is usually straightforward and beginner-friendly, but long lectures and journals make it feel heavier.
Online reviews call the structure easy to follow, while in-person reviews range from easiest class to heavy workload.
Is attendance flexible?
Attendance rules vary across reviews, with several online classes marked mandatory and many others not mandatory or unclear.
Online reviews are mixed on attendance, and in-person reviews mostly say attendance was not mandatory except one class.
Is this professor recommended?
Most students recommend her for clear teaching and fair grading, but workload complaints keep this from being a universal must-take.
Online reviews are mostly favorable with repeated workload warnings, while in-person reviews are fewer and split mainly by workload.
