The decision
Key questions
Is this an easy A?
An A seems possible, but students say essay grades are strict and the class takes serious time and effort.
The only online review reports an A and helpful feedback, while in-person reviews describe a harder path to top grades.
Is the course easy?
The course is not conceptually impossible, but students repeatedly say it is hard, thoughtful, and essay-heavy.
Online evidence sounds manageable, while in-person evidence frames the class as harder and more demanding.
Is attendance flexible?
Attendance is not clearly described as mandatory, but students say showing up regularly matters to avoid falling behind.
The online review gives no attendance evidence, while in-person comments emphasize being present and engaged.
Is this professor recommended?
Most students recommend her because she is caring, clear, and helpful, despite the hard grading and workload.
Both formats are positive, but the in-person reviews add stronger warnings about difficulty.
