The decision
Key questions
Is this an easy A?
Even students who finish report punitive grading, zero-tolerance projects, and little path to improve, so an easy A is unrealistic.
Online reviews give more detail on project zeros and language policing; in-person notes also cite unfair project grading.
Is the course easy?
Heavy reading, papers, and specific exams make the course hard, amplified by unclear teaching rather than pure content brilliance.
Both formats call the work hard; online students stress unreadability of expectations.
Is attendance flexible?
Some sections mark attendance mandatory and others not, with little positive detail on attendance value.
In-person reviews more often list mandatory attendance; online often does not.
Is this professor recommended?
All quality scores are 1 and explicit advice is to avoid the class and not take her again.
Online and in-person reviews agree on avoidance; sample is small but unanimous.
Course guide
Grading
Harsh
8/100

Workload
Heavy
24/100

Course format
Classroom format
Low confidence · Best fit for Hardcore Learner
Sparse in-person comments echo no accommodation and exams or projects graded against missing guidance.
Main concern
No accommodation and projects graded as if examples were given when they were not.
What students said
“didnt accommodate me!”
“For the final project she gave us no examples and told us to use the best of what we learned, but then graded it as if we were suppose to follow an example she didn't provide.”
Remote format
Medium confidence · Best fit for Hardcore Learner
Online reviews are uniformly negative about unfair grading, inaccessible communication, rigid projects, and exams that feel designed to fail.
Main concern
No help when stuck plus zero-tolerance project guidelines and odd exam specificity.
What students said
“Avoid this class at all costs. The instructor doesn't grade fairly, communication is poor, and you'll spend more time fighting for your grade than actually learning.”
“Everything had to be perfect or you would get a zero. Would not recommend”
“She gives unclear instruction and when asked for help, has stated multiple times that she doesn't want us to ask for help.”
Exam style
Exams and final projects are described as overly specific, poorly supported, and graded without helpful models or flexibility.
Assessment risk
Strict
22/100
Low score means less forgiving assessment conditions.
In-person exams include material students say was not covered, and the final project is graded against unprovided examples.
“Her exams were difficult to the point where some of the questions on it weren't even in the material she gave to the class.”
“Don't bother emailing her, never replies.”
Online exams feel oddly specific beyond the textbook, accommodations are refused, and major projects can be zeroed for imperfect guideline matches.
“Exams are weirdly specific and even reading all of the textbook does not help, like designed for class wide failure.”
“Everything had to be perfect or you would get a zero.”
