Spring 2024 - This is a PSA to NOT take this class with this professor. The content itself was interesting; there was a lot to memorize but you do get a cheat sheet. The professor was a decent lecturer. However, she refuses to post her slides with notes (which were kinda necessary because her slides were blank for us to take notes on) to like "motivate us to watch the Bruincast"?? Which wasted a bunch of my time jumping through videos to find the one slide I needed. She is also very condescending and unhelpful. She refuses to answer questions about discussion worksheets/homework, sounded irritated a lot, went on a long tangent in lecture about not using ChatGPT and told us that was why we did bad on the exam. Besides the professor, there were weekly discussion worksheets where you get docked points for missing the tiniest details. Check answers with TAs and LAs to get most of the points. Also, she uses iClicker, and lectures Mon, Tues, and Wed are mandatory while the Thurs tutorial and Fri office hours are not. You have to be there in like the first 3 minutes of lecture because there's an iClicker question which I found very annoying. I liked the content of this class and think an A is achievable if you put in the work, but I did not like the professor or the grading of this class.
