    Quarter Taken: Winter 2021 Online
    Grade: A

    There was an overwhelming amount of assignments throughout the quarter, individually worth very little credit, yet not negligible. The weekly assignments and PTLs were very time-consuming. The 2 writing assignments were frustrating, as it was unknown what Courey specifically was looking for until it was time to actually peer review. The weekly POGILs were often written to be very lengthy.
