The decision
Key questions
Is this an easy A?
An A is very reachable with steady weekly work, clear instructions, and some extra credit, but it is not effortless.
Online reviews emphasize easy homework with extra credit, while in-person reviews also show easy grades but more frustration with tedious work.
Is the course easy?
The material is usually basic college success content, especially for first-year students, though the repeated assignments can feel tiring.
Online reviews call the material easy and basic, while in-person reviews are less about hard content and more about boredom.
Is attendance flexible?
Reviews do not clearly prove a strict attendance policy, though participation and weekly engagement matter.
Online evidence mentions participation and discussions, while in-person reviews do not clearly establish attendance rules.
Is this professor recommended?
Students recommend her when they value structure and college success skills, but many hesitate because the work feels repetitive or boring.
Online students are more willing to recommend the class, while in-person students are sharply split.
