Comment:
This class is an easy A, but it will be the longest semester of your life. Each class is the same, you will copy notes from a piece of paper she puts up on the projector. Lectures are not engaging on any level, but the tests are 50 question true/false and if you showed up you will know what the questions are. Dull, but very manageable.

Very nice lady, loves to talk sports. Just go to class and copy down whats on the board and study for the tests and youll do fine. DO NOT buy the bool you will not use it. Doesn't put notes on blackboard so you have to show up and take down the notes in order to pass. Make a decent effort and you'll be ok.

Very easy teacher. All you have to do is come to class, write down all the note, and you'll do perfectly fine. No textbook need because notes cover everything.

Comment:
Most. Boring. Class. Ever. She uses overhead transparencies for slides, which is hilariously outdated, but she won't share the slides with the class. She has mandatory attendance, but it's an easy class.

Never used book. Most boring lectures ever. Not allowed to leave early or use cellphone. Doesn't post notes on blackboard but exams are 50 questions true or false so it was easy.

Just come to class and write down all the notes. She doesn't like people using their phones. Nice teacher. if you study hard on the tests it will be an easy A. Final grades are based on 4 tests, each test counts as 25%. Recommended!

Easy A class! She's very nice. She loves talking about sports, especially the Redskins! Yes she makes it clear at the beginning of the semester that she doesn't want people using their phone during class... Duh! If you are a grown up, you won't have any problem with that. Don't buy the book, too expensive and we never had to bring it to class

Just go to class and take the notes she puts on her board and hear her lecture, and you should be able to manage at least a B. Pretty boring class, with no interaction with the class. Only 4 tests, all true and false. And don't bother wasting your money on the book, we never used it.

Comment:
Ill just list the pros and cons to make it simple. Pros are that she does not interact or ask the students any questions so its relatively chill. Cons are that she is very disrespectful and will kick out half the class if you dont do an assignment, she will take any phones that are out, and treats people like high school students

Great teacher, and the tests are easy. I would not buy the textbook because we never used it. ALl tests are true/false, but you still need to study before the test. She makes the class very interesting. Highly recommended.

That class was amazing, all you have to do is to attend on time, take notes OF EVERY SINGLE WORD and you will do great in the exams. Exams are straight from the notes. final paper was 8 pages single space. That was tough, but I leaned A LOT. REGISTER NOW AND YOU WILL DO GREAT, TRUST ME.

Ms. Olson is very organized and clear. Attendance is mandatory otherwise you will miss all the notes, which will be on the exams. She doesn't use the book AT ALL. Exams are always true or false and 100% of them are from her class notes. Show up and take notes, study a few hours before the exams, you will get an A. One of the easiest classes I had.

Comment:
1st semester there. Glad I took her, kept things easy. Don't buy the txtbook not necessary. Everything is straight from the notes. Tests full of T or F. If you're looking for a challenge don't take her. As an introductory course, I guess she's okay. You learn if you're willing to learn. Otherwise you can just memorize & forget.

Too many information given every class. cool stuff to learn, final project 8 pages single spaced. 3 exams multiple choice. Study before the exam for couple of hours and you will be fine.

Comment:
She is incredible easy-if your looking for a challenge, then do not take her. She is highly unfriendly and unhelpful to talk to. She only allows you to take Make-Up exams during finals week. She is very unflexible if you have a conflict. Otherwise, you can pass her class with your eyes closed.

This was my summer class and was quick. Dont buy the textbook because you wont be using it in her class. Tests are 50 multiple choices questions. She will give u 15-20 practice questions before u take the real test. She's kinda unfriendly to talk to, but anyway, she's nice and easy to understand.
