CollegeLectures are just copy pasted theorems from the textbook. She basically spend the entire hour filling in empty spots with formulas without giving you time to think nor provide any useful explanation.
Not that bad, I feel like a lot of people on here underrate her.
Dr. Ravat's teaching style and the course content are manageable, but she is not the most easily accessible or considerate professor. She has a clear passion for data science, but her email policy is quite strict, and expresses a greater ego as the course progresses. Not bad, but if given the option I would prefer to take it with somebody else.
Professor Ravat was nice. She offered two easy extra credit opportunity & let us retake one of her quizzes. Although quizzes & final account for half of our grade, the other half is basically free points (hw & ws). My main critique is that I wish she had provided the answers to the final review sheet. Just do the worksheets and you should be fine!
