The decision
Key questions
Is this an easy A?
Students often report high letter grades, but comments say exams are traps and demand heavy self-study for an A.
Online reviews stress timed Lockdown exams; in-person reviews stress hard textbook tests.
Is the course easy?
Heavy reading, tricky multi-chapter exams, and lectures that do not teach the test make the content hard to navigate.
Both online and in-person students describe hard exams and dense textbook chapters.
Is attendance flexible?
Most recent reviews mark attendance as not mandatory.
Online reviews consistently say attendance is not required; older in-person notes are less clear but rarely force attendance.
Is this professor recommended?
Take-again rate is 0%, and recent comments repeatedly say do not take her.
Strongest avoid language is concentrated in the large online review cluster from 2025.

Course format
Classroom format
Medium confidence · Best fit for Hardcore Learner
In-person reviews are mixed historically but still flag hard tests, heavy reading, and unclear lectures; recent ones stay negative.
Main concern
Hard textbook-based exams and lectures that do not prepare you.
What students said
“She gives 2 EC opportunities but her exams suck!!! The questions are tricky and about stuff she mentions in passing.”
“even though I showed up to every single lecture, the test is super hard.”
“you have to read the entire book for the extremely hard chapter tests and her lectures are unclear and confusing.”
Remote format
High confidence · Best fit for Self Taught Pro
lectures waste time, exams come from the book only, and Lockdown Browser is brutal.
Main concern
100-question timed exams with Lockdown Browser and zero useful lecture prep.
What students said
“she gives 100 question exams that must be done in 70 minutes and must be done with the lockdown browser or else you will fail”
“Her lectures/class activities wont prepare u for the exams.”
“Do NOT take this professor! Take it at a different community college if you have to!!!”
Exam style
Exams are strict, often Lockdown Browser timed tests drawn from textbook material rather than lectures.
Assessment risk
Strict
16/100
Low score means less forgiving assessment conditions.
In-person exams are described as hard, textbook-driven chapter tests, sometimes written plus multiple choice.
“you have to read the entire book for the extremely hard chapter tests”
“The written exams are literally on EVERYTHING she teaches.”
Online students report 100-question, 70-minute Lockdown Browser exams with poorly worded trick questions.
“she gives 100 question exams that must be done in 70 minutes and must be done with the lockdown browser or else you will fail”
“I had to take a 100-question exam less than one week into my course, and I had only 70 minutes to complete.”
