The decision
Key questions
Is this an easy A?
An A is possible with unlimited homework tries and extra credit, but only if you complete heavy ALEKS work and perform on many tests.
Online and in-person both require heavy homework effort for strong grades.
Is the course easy?
Math content plus fast combined courses and lecture-heavy notes make the material tough for many students.
In-person especially flags pace and lecture volume; online still calls concepts manageable with her help.
Is attendance flexible?
Most reviews say attendance is mandatory and skipping hurts your chance to pass.
Nearly all formats report mandatory attendance; one older in-person note said no.
Is this professor recommended?
Majority recommend her for clarity and care despite workload complaints and a minority of harsh experiences.
Both online reviews are strongly positive; in-person opinions are mostly positive with some Avoid-level outliers.
