    Quarter Taken: Spring 2024 In-Person
    Grade: A+

    This class was a bit all over the place. The lectures consisted of past research studies done and the Professor explains and summarizing them. However, none of the lectures seems to have been actually useful to the rest of the class. The discussion sections felt completely disconnected from the class and felt we were in two different classes. With that being said, this class was very simple. The entire class was based around one JEPS style research paper that is worked on in groups of 4-6. Due dates for certain portions of the paper were set earlier which helped later on closer to the final due date. There was quite a lot of time spent outside of class for wirting this paper, bit given a good group it did not feel too bad. Overall, despite the lack of organization in the class, the workload was very manageable and not too difficult to achieve an A in the class.
