ECON106 . Benelli C A A Month Ago

Truly the most infuriating prof ever, felt like I was getting rage baited. Takes forever to post notes bc they rewrite their scratch work by copy pasting from an alphabet of neat handwritten letters, 1 letter at a time. Notes and lectures consist of objectively simple math that they overcomplicate + goes on unrelated tangents. 10 mins late to final

Gets super lost during lectures and makes so many mistakes during class. You'll get more confused than learn anything. Notes are also never posted on time, and massive amounts of random points are taken for answers that aren't what she wants to see on exams. Wasted tuition money to take this useless class. THIS IS YOUR WARNING TO AVOID HER CLASSES!

Very mixed thoughts. Cindy cares about students and sometimes has funny anecdotes, and I learned from classes. Be prepared to spend a lot of time navigating Cindy's frustratingly disorganized style of lecturing/testing on content. To do well on tests need to attend every single lecture and write down every word. Too stressful and far from an easy A

Super unprofessional and terrible professor. Gives a list of all the final topics the night before an 8 am exam is so crazy. If this professor was a spell in wizard101 she would be taunt because its a really bad spell. Plus its from the ice school which is even worse.

Very unprofessional. Late to the final. Unorganized. Never have learned less from a class here before.

The most lazy and disorganized teacher. Goes on random tangents and can't answer basic questions about her notes because she doesn't know herself. Posted the notes the night before the final. Showed up to our final 10 minutes late, and then tested us on material that wasn't in the notes, talked about in lecture, or in the practice.

Overall a terrible class. Like other reviews mention, she doesn't really explain anything, she just rambles about stuff so it seems like she's answering the question. She always says the notes are going to be uploaded asap but it takes her a week to upload them the night before an exam and they aren't even good. Also makes basic math seem confusing

I never had a professor post what's going to be on the final and the lecture slides 12 hours before the final. Tests are unpredictable and entire class structure seems confusing and unorganized. I recommend taking another class if you could.

Good: very nice person. Bad: Notes posted night before exam. Notes so messy/unclear. Doesn't respond to messages. Rambles instead of lectures. Complains about her job. Waits till last minute to do anything. Laughs off her irresponsibility. Answers questions in riddles. Lies about what's going on tests. Don't take this if you want to stay sane sry.

She assigned us a project worth 20% of our grade, but didn't even grade it. I absolutely despise professors who assign you busy work just for them to ignore it afterwards. These professors need to retire!!

Honestly, the most unprepared, lazy, confusing, and lackluster professor I've had in my entire academic journey. Exam material is not posted until 3am the night before the test. Lecture notes are uploaded into random parts of canvas that is already nearly impossible to navigate. Lectures become a place for her to rant about random things. Dont Take

Okay yeah she's disorganized, goes on tangent that are sometimes useful but as long as you read the lectures you'll be fine. *My exam were mostly multiple choice it could be different for next quarter*
