run. her class is way to hard for a supposed beginner class and she doesnt gaf about her students. ive never had a worse professor at ucsb

No one shows up to lecture and its no surprise why. The speed and the constant assumptions that we know what to do is tiring. I would like to ask questions but I am so confused that you dont know where to start. On top of this they were very late posting the answer key for the final which is absurd. If you dont go to office hours you're cooked.

This has been one of the worst experiences I have had with a class at UCSB. Professor Solis barley lectures, she talks at you as if you already know the material and moves way too fast for a beginner coding class. I went to lectures but I still had to teach myself every concept before the midterm/final. Communication was awful and disappointing.

took her for CS9 and she just copies lecture off of Richert Wang. instead of having a lesson plan she reads off his lectures and whenever she is stuck copying notes due to a mistake she made she turns to her students for help. she is very nice but always feels distant, her practice midterm and final are not very helpful to study off of

The professor is caring and nice but he lectures are very fast-paced and it feels like she is just talking about the material rather than actually teaching it. Although this class is supposed to be a beginner-friendly class for people with no coding experience, it doesn't feel that way at all. I don't recommend it!

The midterm and final were both very fair and we were given plenty of practice problems/tests to help prepare us. Prof Solis really cares about us understanding the concepts and uses the Book of Proof to teach her class. Sections were very helpful to practice more proofs and a little extra credit/curve was given at the end of the class.

Solis changes the syllabus of this course to make it much much more difficult than before. She changes the midterm project and final project into examinations! RUN!!!

I was extremely disappointed by this class. Professor Solis was not only unorganized and unhelpful, but also failed to acknowledge students frustrations with the class as a whole.

She stole the whole lab, homework, lecture, and exam material from Berkeley. She even went as far as making a specific joke in her lecture that we later found another Berekely professor made a year prior. If you line up two lecture videos from her and a Berkely professor, they are the exact same. It is honestly shocking.

Unclear, disorganized, unhelpful, doesn't listen to feedback. Do not take it if in-person tests are part of grade

This class was the most unorganized and unfair class ever. I, as well as most of the students in this class have expressed our concerns to her given the fact that she always grades our assignments too late, does not give good feedback, and does not adequately teach. With these concerns, absolutely nothing has been done. Do not take this class.

great lecturer and great notes BUT the final and midterm combined are worth 60% of your grade, no curve. 1/2 of questions on midterm were either not taught yet or were mentioned literally the day before the exam. pretty much impossible to get an A since midterm was a wreck. regret taking this class so much. attend section, ta is very helpful.
