ME14 . Daly S H 6 Months Ago

Professor Daly is friendly and approachable. Her lectures are easy to follow and while some concepts are challenging, she does a good job going through examples in class. Her exams are tough but fair. If you attend all lectures and do homework sets you should be fine.

ME14 . Daly S H 6 Months Ago

Easily the worst professor I've had. I love statics as a topic, but I hated this class. All homework must be submitted in person, on paper to a mail box. All grades are handed back in person, and you must calculate your grade yourself. Lectures were funny, but not actually helpful in understanding the material at all. The TAs saved me this class.

Professor Daly isn't bad. But when the class was doing well, she decided to significantly up the difficulty of later quizzes to "test the limits of our abilities." It almost was like we were punished for doing too well. I feel like she made the material much harder than it should actually be. But the format of the online course was very forgiving.

Her class was structured really well for an online format. No midtern or final only 6 quizzes of which she drops one of them. The rest of your grade is based on homework. She can explain topics really well and is an overall good person. Her quizzes can be pretty tricky tho, you basically have to know what youre doing or else you wont finish in time
