    Quarter Taken: Spring 2022 In-Person
    Grade: A+

    The textbook is very helpful in this class, along with the homework. Her midterms are very similar to the questions she puts in the homework as well as practice tests, so it is good to use those to study. I didn't particularly thing Qi was a good lecturer, but you'll be fine as long as you write down all the equations.
