Key questions
Is this an easy A?
Extra credit, dropped quizzes, and homework completion help, but grades still depend on attendance and learning the material.
All grade evidence comes from in-person reviews because there are no online reviews.
Is the course easy?
The math content is manageable for some students but becomes hard when students are expected to prepare from the book.
Only in-person reviews describe the course difficulty.
Is attendance flexible?
Attendance and participation are treated as important, and one review directly says attendance was mandatory.
Attendance evidence appears only in in-person reviews.
Is this professor recommended?
Several students strongly recommend him for clear teaching, but the negative reviews make him a risky fit.
The recommendation evidence is entirely from in-person reviews.
