The decision
Key questions
Is this an easy A?
Grades appear easy because assignments often receive full credit when submitted on time and exams are book-based, but organization issues add risk.
All counted reviews are in person, even though some comments mention online experiences inside the text.
Is the course easy?
The work and tests are often described as easy or textbook-based, but learning the material can be hard without real instruction.
All course-easiness evidence comes from in-person-classified reviews.
Is attendance flexible?
Reviews do not clearly establish an attendance policy, but many complaints focus on assignment deadlines rather than attendance.
No online format exists in the authoritative counts, and in-person reviews do not clearly prove attendance rules.
Is this professor recommended?
Students overwhelmingly discourage taking her because the course lacks teaching, feedback, communication, and organization.
All recommendation evidence comes from in-person-classified reviews.
