Most Helpful Review
Fall 2024 - Honestly, while this class wasn't too difficult, it felt like Professor Shevstov did everything in her power to make it harder for students. The homework isn't too difficult, and there are many forums to get help, but the exams were completely disjointed from the content covered in the lecture. When they make up 65% of your grade, it can be really difficult to succeed in class. For our midterm, a different professor wrote the exam, and it covered content that Professor Shevstov had yet to cover in class, leaving us completely unprepared. On top of that, since the other professor wrote it, the question formatting was completely different than what we had been exposed to thus far. You can't even skip her lecture to go to the other professor's because she requires attendance. I will say, that if you work hard, and study well, it is definitely possible to do well in the class, but I would definitely recommend working with your LAs who have taken the class before, and seeing if you can get the other professor's practice material. The way I was able to get through this class was by working with my PLF who covered Bennoun's (the other professor's) content, and studying his recorded lectures.
