Key questions
Is this an easy A?
Some sections are easy with light work, but tough grading and specific tests keep the A from being automatic.
Online evidence looks easier and more supportive, while in-person evidence is sharply mixed.
Is the course easy?
The physical activity content is generally approachable, but test questions and assignment wording can add difficulty.
Online reviews describe the course as manageable, while in-person reviews vary by section.
Is attendance flexible?
Most reviews mark attendance as mandatory, though one in-person cycling review says missed classes did not hurt the grade.
Both formats include attendance expectations, but one in-person section appears more flexible.
Is this professor recommended?
Recommendation is split because online students praise him, while some in-person students criticize grading and unclear questions.
Online reviews are positive, but in-person reviews reduce confidence in a blanket recommendation.
