Winter 2022 - I have nothing bad to say about Professor Cabric; she's an excellent lecturer and explains concepts fairly well. I'd be willing to take her again for future classes (pending TA situation). The TA though.... I know on Bruinwalk I shouldn't 't curse, but there's a phrase with word that starts with an "f" and ends with an "-uck him" that can only describe my feelings for this TA. I wont name his name, but everyone who took this class Winter 2022 knows who I am talking about. Unironically, because holy sh*t, the anal-ness of this TA is beyond describable, off the f***ing charts. Let me put this lightly, you are getting maybe like 25% of the amount of pent up frustration and contempt I had in dealing with this particular TA. I ain't no joker now, don't get it twisted, but holy f*** I went almost insane several times on the homeworks, which can only be described as hell. Pre-2022 tests are hard for Cabric, which were tough but fair. Our TA, on the other hand, had other ideas... lets just say, our exam medians were about 10-20 points lower than previous years. Lmao. This is because of how the class works; the TA is responsible for creating and grading all the homeworks and tests. In previous years, this wasn't a problem as most TAs I'd imagine aren't freaking psychotic masochists. Winter 2022 TA however was, making sure our life was a living hell. It got so bad even the professor had to step in in the later weeks to tell our TA, "bro, chill TF out!" Damage was done unfortunately with midterm and homework grades. I at least got the grade I desired. Others less fortunate than me don't have it so nice. All I can say is, whatever the hell you do, if you do not want years of life expectancy taken off, do not take this class if the TA's name fits the initials A.W. Maybe he is misunderstood and I'm being a harshass, but real talk, do you really want to care about whether his intentions are good or not when its 4 AM and you are still stuck on his damn homework from hell? Lmao.
