Key questions
Is this an easy A?
An A likely requires significant effort because comments cite demanding take-home final writing and strict expectations.
All evidence comes from in-person reviews, with no online reviews available.
Is the course easy?
The course content seems manageable for some students but harder because expectations and written analysis can be demanding.
Only in-person comments support this judgment.
Is attendance flexible?
Reviews do not say attendance is mandatory, but the class appears discussion- and lecture-dependent.
Only in-person reviews are available, and none clearly define attendance policy.
Is this professor recommended?
Recommendation is low because two of three reviews describe major problems with tone, bias, and expectations.
The recommendation evidence is entirely from in-person reviews.
