Most Helpful Review
Summer 2025 - The pace of the course was nice despite it being a Summer class. Professor has good slides and uses good examples. Weekly homework graded on completion, not correctness. Answers posted after the deadline. Midterm was fairly easy, most people thought it was bad, but if you study you should be okay. Final was harder, so I suggest studying very hard. Professor posts past exams that are extremely helpful. Use those to study because they are similar. In previous classes it was 25-30 different questions, but for Summer 2025 Session A, the questions were dependent on each other, ex: Questions 1-5 were related to each other - similar to 1a, 1b, 1c, and so on. Her office hours are a hit or miss depending on who is there with you, but she is always there to answer questions. Good communication, and a fantastic teacher.
