Jason Arndt
Took the course with Professor Parshina. She's okay, the lectures are boring and the readings are long. The exams are open note, open book but they're multiple choice and often convoluted. She does not really teach everything but tests on everything. Assignments are not effort based despite being told they were in the syllabus
I enjoyed this course, but the readings were super long and we were required to fill out a reading guide for each one (around 10 pages per week). However, lectures were interesting and he's a nice guy
This course was very difficult but extremely rewarding. The readings were quite long at times and you have to write up your notes to each one in a weekly document that you review in study teams, which added to the workload. Weeks with exams were cram packed with studying and little else. However, Jason Arndt really knows how to teach well, and this is the most I've ever learned in a course. It feels very rewarding to engage with and get a lot out of. If you have the bandwidth in your schedule to take it with Arndt, do it – it's worth it.
