Comment:
The lectures were fine and the course is pretty easy but my biggest complaint is she was an incredibly hard marker for anything subjective. I'd have my assignments checked by two bio friends (one of which was TAing a different section) and they'd say it was perfect and she'd give me like a 60%. Although purely quantitative stuff i'd always get 90

Comment:
She gives very fair tests and is enthusiastic about the course material. The lectures can be boring, but that is probably b/c they are at 8:30 am. It is a good course with a good prof.I would take a course with her again.

Despite the previous comments, this is the best DE course I have taken. The course content was well organized and clear. The assignments were challenging, but clearly worded. She was very responsive to all email inquiries I made. I would recommend this course to anyone.

Comment:
yah i know they say that DE courses are generally harder, but i have taken a couple so far and this by far is the worst. Course is organized, but the content is very unclear. the cd-rom is somewhat helpful but there are no lecture notes watsoever, and the assignments are very vague and UNCLEAR.
