Clarissa Parker
This course is tough but fair. The professor doesn't give out much in terms of daily homework or assignments. However, lots of time is needed to review class notes for the exams. The exams, especially the final, were difficult. On the other hand, the lab was very chill. I feel like there weren't enough assignments to test learning.
It was honestly a great class! The content itself wasn't hard, however, the amount of it can make the class difficult. The tests awere hard, but the information is very cool to learn about. The professor is very passionate about the field and it shows, making the lectures very fun.
I love Professor Parker, I think she is a great instructor and is very good at making difficult content digestible. She prints out all her slides for you before every class so you can write what she says, which at times can be very fast-paced but the content is extremely interesting. If you go to her office hours to ask about information you might've missed, she is very happy to catch you up. For exams, she sends you a list of 20 ish possible open-ended questions she will ask. If you study well the content of these questions and practice answering them, you will do fine on the exams. Her open-ended questions are easy if you use the information she sends you, and her multiple choice can be tricky but manageable. I would 100% take this course with her again.
