The decision
Key questions
Is this an easy A?
Some students earned A grades, but most describe heavy weekly work, harsh grading, and high stress as the real cost.
Both formats report hard work, while online reviews stress module volume and in-person reviews stress packets and grading.
Is the course easy?
The math content is made harder by fast or unclear explanations, confusing modules, and limited direct instruction.
Online students struggle with long modules, while in-person students struggle with packets, group work, and hard-to-follow lectures.
Is attendance flexible?
Several in-person reviews say attendance matters or missing class can cause serious consequences.
Attendance evidence mainly comes from in-person reviews; online flexibility is limited by heavy weekly deadlines.
Is this professor recommended?
Most recent students do not recommend her because the workload, grading, and teaching style feel stressful and unclear.
Both formats are mostly negative, though online has a few students who found the course clear and manageable.
