CollegeHillary is all over the place man. We got a 10% curve on this final because she couldn't write the test properly. The first half of the class was not taught by her and was great. She ruined the second half, horrible slides, mid lectures, horrible final. Still a super easy class though.
Lectures are impossible to follow and unorganized. quiz questions are poorly constricted (and tricky) and often ask about material we don't cover nearly enough
I would honestly give Professor Young a 0/5, but at least she's nice. It's too bad that her lectures were so fast paced and poorly organized.
Textbook does not relate to lecture, but are expected. to know all material from it for tests. Lectures are extremely difficult to follow and class feels like she is making up everything on the spot. Slides were in the wrong orders, so I spent half the time looking for the slide she was presenting.
Her lectures were ridiculously unorganized and hard to follow. Her slides were usually in the wrong order and she skipped around a lot, which makes studying for exams much harder. Also, lectures arent recorded.
This class was great and probably considered a difficult class to fail. The class was graded purely on effort and a majority of your grade was from the class project on a specie you chose. Time consuming class and lots of research papers to read and quizzes were hard but quizzes didnt impact your grade as much and lots of EC offered.
