12/01/2022		This professor made me question whether or not I should be a music major and pursuing a career in music. Insanely difficult class. She’s too smart for her own good and expects everyone to be as smart as her. She is not helpful at all if you go to her office hours. Harder than any stem class I’ve taken at the college level. She gives so much homework it made the whole class delirious. I honestly can’t even describe how bad this class is. I’ve never felt so stupid and sad in my entire life. DO NOT TAKE! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

I worked the hardest I have worked for any class and got the lowest grades I have ever gotten, even though I went to her office to ask questions every week. She grades REALLY harshly and assigns a ton of work. The essays are especially deadly. On top of that, she doesn't teach well. Avoid her if at all possible.
