Although she is a tough grader and very meticulous on the tests, it is obviously possible to receive an A. Speaking from experience, if you attend all lectures, pay attention and ask questions during the lectures, lot of information get stuck in your brain and the test gets easier for you. Her tests are very much lecture based.

She is amazing. She has several assignments, so even if you aren't a great test taker, you can still have a decent grade in the class. She is very thorough and encourages students that are struggling to reach out to her. The only thing that I didn't like was how much she lectured during lab. She also read verbatim from the slides which got boring.

This is by far one of the most difficult classes I have taken at Macomb and I've took 30+ classes at Macomb.
