    don't take it with her. She is awful at explaining material and overall is not fit to be a professor. I would not recommend her class

    Grade: A

    I disliked the lectures because Simpson would jump from one idea from the other. I was prepared for tests because of the homework and reading the textbook. I received the grade I expected and learned what I wanted to.
