    Quarter Taken: Spring 2022 Online
    Grade: A

    The prof was really sweet, but the class was really disorganized because it was online. Nothing was uploaded to the assignments tab on canvas, and she said all due dates were in the syllabus. I think the prof just didn’t understand the technology. The paper wasn’t awful though.

    Quarter Taken: Fall 2022 Hybrid
    Grade: A

    She is super sweet and helpful! Was a little disorganized but as long as you do your work you should be fine. There are three essays. Make sure to attend her office hours, they are super helpful!

    Quarter Taken: Fall 2023 In-Person
    Grade: A+

    I actually really enjoyed this class because it was on Medical Humanities and the Doctor-Patient relationship. I think the topic switches each quarter, or I guess it depended on who your professor was, but this topic was really interesting to me so it made engaging with the class easier. There's basically three main papers that make up the majority of your grade, if not all of it, and just keep up with the readings or get the general ideas and you should be fine.
