Did I mention fill in the blank notes in size 15 bold font that look like they came from the early 90s, forced us to print out at-least 200 pages of dull non-practical notes.
anyways preparing my courses. Would like some opinions on teachers
Tom F - Marco Econ
Shahrokh R - Math 2310
LI Eugene - Stats 2225
or
Tsay Y - Stats 2225
Dont trust Rate my prof
Shahrokh is easy as f**k. I don't even go to class and I got a 89% on his midterm The most difficult math you'll encounter in that course is algebra. Stats with Tsai is horrible. She's my 1181 course right now and everyone I know is getting brutally murdered. The reason why I joined her class is because of Ratemyprofessor, but it's like she reads it or something so she made her course three times as difficult. Plus Tsai has a really thick accent so if you like Peter Chao you might like her. I heard Eugene Li is good. My cousin had Li last year and said it was awesome. DON'T go for tsai if you want a 70%+. The average for her first midterm was 58% after scaling and the second midterm would probably be around the same. Tell your friends not to AVOID Tsai and go for Li for 2225 if they want an achievable A.
Also, anyone wanna send me notes/past midterms/quizzes for McFarlane? Thinking of taking him next term. Maybe we can help each other out

Got any past exams? quiz? or any assignment that i may have?
soooo...you can cheat on midterms? 8-)
never done anything with online portion before so...please explain if you can lol
its not online.. its still in class lecture. Just all exams and stuff at home except presentations.
I have him this semester for international business 2000. haven't gone to more than 10 single class and pulling off A- LOL. dunno how well that would be after the presentation but yeah. You can group up and work on your tests + quizzes.
so 1220 with pascuzzi should be alright then? how is the format of the midterms?
Midterms are like around 5-10 True and false / MC depends on what class asks for
and the rest is short answer like. Explain Long run equilibrium theory. Use graphs. Everything on test is in class. Remember all the diagrams and you'll be fine
there's this hot chick that's taking a class that I took last semester. How the fuck does that happen what the fuck since when did hot chicks take compsci courses Posted via RS Mobile
i got 8 30 class for my physics too I can barely get up at 8 30AM to go to my 10 30AM class and now i am fucked.
Where do you go to drop out a course? Finals are coming up and I know shit to pass it Will a letter be sent home if i drop out to let my parents know? I do not know how to tell them or hide it T_____T
