The decision
Key questions
Is this an easy A?
Many in-person reviews say an A is very reachable through easy work, posted deadlines, and lots or even unlimited extra credit.
The easy-A evidence is almost entirely from in-person reviews, while the single online review gives no useful grade detail.
Is the course easy?
The content is often described as easy or not hard, but the workload and unclear directions make the experience more difficult than the material itself.
In-person reviews support easy content with heavy busywork; online evidence is too thin to judge content difficulty.
Is attendance flexible?
Several reviews say showing up helps or is needed, and one in-person review marks attendance mandatory, but the overall policy is not consistently proven.
Attendance evidence comes from in-person reviews; the online review does not clarify attendance policy.
Is this professor recommended?
Students are split between strong recommendations for an easy A and strong warnings about poor teaching and wasted time.
In-person reviews are sharply polarized, while the single online review is negative but not detailed enough to drive the overall recommendation.
Course guide
Grading
Lenient
78/100
Extra credit is mentioned constantly and can rescue missed tests or points, though some students still call grading random or strict.
Format shift
Lenient grading evidence is almost entirely from in-person reviews; the online review does not add useful grading evidence.
Workload
Heavy
28/100
Even students who say the class is easy often mention lots of movies, reports, readings, assignments, and extra credit work.
Format shift
Heavy workload evidence comes from in-person reviews; online workload evidence is not clear.
Teaching experience
Average
50/100
Teaching is extremely polarized, with many students calling her great and many others saying she is confusing, rude, or rarely teaches.
Format shift
The large in-person sample is polarized; the single online review is negative but not detailed enough to change the teaching profile by itself.
Assessment method
Balanced
45/100
Reviews mention homework, readings, reports, projects, quizzes, tests, and take-home exams, so assessment appears mixed rather than exam-only.
Format shift
Assessment evidence comes mainly from in-person reviews; online assessment evidence is unclear.

Assessment risk
StudentFriendly
82/100

“some of the tests were a little difficult, but do the study guides, they help a lot.”
“miss a test do extra credit”
The single online review does not clearly prove webcam, proctoring, open-book, take-home, quiz, midterm, or final policy.
