I have no words other than horrible. Shes the worst professor ive had here at UCSB. Doesn't have any moral code or compass. 3 tests determine entire grade and doesn't drop the lowest score.

Very tough class... 75% of your grade depends on the three exams you take throughout the quarter. However, there is lots of material to cover and it goes by quickly. This is a conceptually heavy class and it helps to prepare in advance. The fact that you only get 50 minutes for each test also doesn't help, as you have no time to go back and review

overall a very good lecturer. in my opinion, in order to succeed in this class, you need to be ready to give it your all. material was a bit difficult at times, but professor and TAs are very accessible and helpful. you can tell she really wants everyone to do well.
