4 books. not too hard, enjoyed class because its a deep religion, she's not the best at teaching it though, lots of vocabulary to study but only few on the test. 2 papers
easy for me...
Has alot of knowlegde and knows how to teach but has a nasty attitude. Very unfair in grading exams and critical about everything. She threw me out of the class one time for coughing too much...
Biggest ****,mean and unreasonable,makes you buy 4 books wastes time reading them b/c she gives a 15 pg glossary to memorize with 500 words and only 5 are on the test. Don't take,you will fail. Gave me an A- in a religion I've been practicing for 20 yrs

The worst professor ever. Doesn't teach at all and then expects you to know the whole book with all the definitions in it. DON'T TAKE HER!!!
Unfair prof. Condescending to students, especially those of a different culture... Weird behaviors...
Got an A-. Dont know how. You have to be lucky. She knows stuff but you still wont.
DO NOT TAKE HER WHATEVER YOU DO!!! SHES WACK AND WILL GIVE NO MERCY TO ANYONE...GOT C+ AND DID EVERYTHING I WAS SUPPOSE TO...
GOT AN A. JUST HAVE TO STUDY THE VOCABULARY AND YOULL DO FINE. SHE EVEN WALKS THROUGH THE TEXT WITH THE CLASS. ALL WE DID IN CLASS WAS WATCH VIDEOS.
she is a plain ****. whatever u do dont take her.gives a list of hundred vocabulary words and only 5 of them appear on the test
Very intelligent, fair to students, decent grader...a lil on the hard side but decent enough if u have to take a class...people that are saying she is mean and nasty prolly pissed her off
worst teacher i've had in my life. She's lazy! it's an effor for her to get up to write on the board. no mercy! hard grader! She doesn't teach, all she does is read from the book and restates what the book says. Doesn't let u know what to study for tests.
unclear on asignments, grading, exams. comes to class 20 minutes late, and ends class 10 minutes early. she knows the material well, but cant teach at all. best thing abt class was rainforest paper, and that had nothing to do with religions of the world
Very good, nice and awesome professor. I learned a lot... She is wonderful :)
No Comments
on midterm she says what's on it.100vocab words+notes in class.easymidterm.handsout easy quiz pts.2 papersoninterestingtopics.can get easy good grade.can be harsh, good class to take if you want easy grade.
shes was ok i guess...itll help if u have previous exams
she cant speak english and cant teach american students
Very interesting prof.Has alot of good ideas, allows conversation.You have to participate in class and do the reading, but if you actually go to school to learn something, you won't regret taking her class.Assignments easy even for non-Muslims.
Doesnt know**** about hinduism...but its an easy class...be prepared to memorize a million vocabulary words!!
She is the worst religion professor I have ever had. She is unclear in lectures, grading policies, and exams. Be prepared to memorize alot alot alot of foriegn words. She is always late to class, and always the first one to leave. She super sucks.
TAKES ATTENDANCE, LATE TO CLASS, TESTS ARE SO GENERAL U MUST KNOW THE WHOLE BOOK... TESTS YOU ON ANY 5 VOC WORDS FROM WHOLE BOOK SO U MUST KNOW ALOT FOR THESE TESTS! AVOID AT ALL COSTS ! PAPERS YOU MUST WRITE ARE UNRELATED TO THE COURSE. WASTE OF TIME
DO NOT take her CLASS

Horrible professor, unclear, uncaring, and nasty. DO NOT Take!
she's an ok teacher, really depends on what part of Islam she teaches - she focused on islamic history so it wasnt that bad...just read what she says and yer set
great prof. great perspective on world religions. is interested in student feedback. go to all the classes, read the required text, do the assignments-- and receive good grade. You do go to study! This was a very good class for me.
No Comments
Do not take her shes horrible!, tests make no sense makes you do essays that have nothing to do with the class very uncaring makes a big deal about attendance yet shes always late herself!
Extremely knowledgable. Just do not do something stupid because she does not think highly of those who act like four year olds. Shows a lot of videos. She also lets you know what to study for which makes the tests very easy. Interesting class.
Listen, she's a nice lady and all, but if you can find another world religions professor, YOU ABSOULUTELY SHOULD.

She is really nice. just show up on time every class.she gives the same midterm everytime so get it from somebody and you will be fine.
She is a good teacher who knows a lot and I learnt a lot. Class attendance and participation is important. She gives assignments that made me think-and work! She gives opportunities for extra credit. I ended with an A- from a B- average in my mid-term and final!
OK, I really don't like this professor all that much. She's boring and places heavy emphasis on attendance, yet she's always late by about ten minutes. Although knowledgeable in her craft (to a certain extent), I believe that the bad outways the good. Don't bother. Find a different professor to take.

Worst teacher I ever had. I learned nothing. A lot of outdated videos. Cancels class when she doesn't feel like coming but expects us to be here for every class or she takes points off your final grade. Childish assignments. She makes u study the whole book for the test and then asks like 4 short questions. Yells at you for asking questions.
She is a very good scholar. I am glad that she is concerned about class participation. Students who do not like to attend classes should find another teacher who does not care. She is always punctual.Sometimes students of the previous class do not leave the room on time and stay behind delaying her.

Class is humanities oriented... if you like to know interesting stuff about different cultures.. this is for you.
This teacher is terrible!!!
AWFUL! Shows up late. Gives busy work. Barely teaches and wastes class time yelling at students for stupid things. Speaks in a low voice and complains when people say they can't hear her. Culture day is a joke that has no business being held in college. She seems to forget she is teaching adults! Take this class if you want to ruin your GPA.
not a good class.def not for art majors.very dependent on obtuse text with poor quality images.a lot of abstract talking, little viewing of art.when reading is assigned, she calls on EVERY single student to talk about what they read which is a waste of time. if you're interested in religion and fine art, watch sr. wendy instead.
It is introduction to Islam -- hence the five pillars! Advance level students with more than basic information want to take this class for an easy grade then bad-mouth the professor when they discover they have to work for the grade! Yes, you do work but then you also learn and enjoy the class that is geared towards providing introductory info.
This Professor should retire. Cannot teach, and will not answer questions. Stay away!
Professor is not helpful at all. At times she forgets what she has plans and has to have the class remind her. Tests are hard. she goes into detail over minor stuff. expects you to know detailed information on the religions covered. alot of reading. no notes. literarly just reads out of the book. DO NOT RECOMMEND AT ALL!!!
I made the best choice of my education by choosing to take Dr. Rahim's class. I got to learn many new "details"-- that is necessary in a college course. Take it--
DO NOT TAKE THIS TEACHER!!! Not helpful at all. Gives most of work during the last 2 weeks. Avoid!
My 1st semester and I am a transfer student, and she is the worst prof ever! She tells students not to come late to class and she comes 10-20 mins late! Yells at students for stupid things. She got a degree from Harvard! I think they should take that away cause she cant teach for her life! Dont take her, waste of time & money.
Is this a smear campaign? This professor is among the better ones at St. John's unversity. If learning Judaism you come across Hebrew words, for Hinduism it is Sanskrit, for Islam it is normal for some Arabic words. What a poor excuse to remain ignorant about Islam? I have taken two classes with her and wish there were some more to join! Take class
Dr. Rahim is a good professor with academic learning. Her lectures are informative and scholarly. No, there are no "rants" all this is made-up by those who have an adgenda against her solid academic presentation of Islam-- I am so very glad I took her class-- best decision I made.
Best course I have taken. Very informative. I was recently in Europe and used prof's ideas in sessions. I had to send her a letter of appreciation for what I had learnt from her. Take this course. Best choice you could make.
I have not taken this professor and will take her next semester. However, why does it seem like all the good/positive ratings are written by the professor...or is it just me who feels that way...
Do not take this class or professor unless you have a good amount of knowledge on the Islamic faith. Questions you on very specific and minuscule aspects that do not have very much relevance to the grand scheme of things. She seems knowledgeable but it sucks at presented and organizing her knowledge.
most of her lectures are long tangents hardly relating to the class. Very hard tester because most of the lectures were just tangents without a clear structure. I had her for intro to Islam and it was more of a history class than a theo class. very little homework but very hard tester. i wouldn't recommend her.
Excellent professor! Very good course--
good course, good teacher.
Good course excellent proferssor
I liked the course good proferssor
thank you for an interesting course, good professor
ecxellent course material, good prof.
no comment
I took one course, Isalm and looking forward to second course with the prof.
i am enjoying the course. Professor has good stuff to say.
ok first thing first, as a muslim this was a hard course..DEF NOT an ez A for no one, Attendance is mandatory TAKING NOTES is mandatory, her writing notes on the board is horrible, she has bad hand writing and sometimes it's hard to understand what she is writing at all
The course is cool, has awesome stuff. I would recommed. The prof. has lots good stuff to teach.
The course is cool, has awesome stuff. I would recommed. The prof. has lots awesome things to teach.
Good course, if you are wiiling to work, then you make the grade. Good prof.
good course and interesting assignment...enjoyed the course
luchy to have Dr. Rahim as professor. Excellent course.
course with good balance of course assignments.
Thank you professor Rahim for the info i received from your course.
Professor Rahim is a good professor. She will help you if you are wiiling to put in the work. Together with the course and assignments, I learned a lot.
Porf. Rahim's class was interesting. Many ideas were explored. Good course.
this is only my 4th week taking her so i don't really have a good idea about her tests yet. but what i can tell you is that if you dont really know arabic this class will be a nightmare for you. she gives about 6 vocab words each class (all in arabic). and is it me or do all the comments bellow me seem as if the professor had written them herself?
yes, it seems you are right, it is you! I am not her and I enjoy her classes. This is the second course I am taking with her. If you are a Pharmacy stdents you must have hard time because it is certainly way more non-English vocabulary that we have to learn than just five or six words a week!
I enjoy Dr. Rahims lectures she have lots of new ideas and angles.
I like what I learn in the class lectures and assignments.
My second course with the professor. She teaches well and she works with you if you show that you are ready to work.
Good professor and very helpful. She has expectations of her students-they have to show that they are interested in working for the course.
This was the worst course I have taken at St. John's because of Dr. Rahim. We have written 15 papers and have yet to receive a grade on any of them. We have no grades at all for that matter. In addition to no grades and no syllabus, the professor is extremely rude and unfair. DO NOT TAKE HER FOR ANYTHING!!!
I liked the film course. Because of the professor, I got to watch movies with themes for different cultures. I also enjoyed working on reflection papers.
I enjoyed taking the course. The prof has many interesting thoughts. I found her extremely approachable.
Excellent profesor. I would recommend her. She has a lot of good material.
Very helpful professor. She will stretch out to help you if you are sincere and wiiling to work.
Good professor. You have to show that you are wiiling to put in effort in learning the material. Good assignments, I learnt a lot. Interesting course I recommend the course.
I enjoyed the course.
I was pleased that I took the course. It was interesting for me.
So0o i havent taken this professor yet but i really honestly feel like i WON'T take her because from what i am reading i feel like ALL THE GOOD COMMENTS ARE FAKE!! To me it seems like she wrote them her self... how pathetic lmao0o smh
Ok so clearly these comments are the prof herself...what student would leave something like the one below? Don't be fooled like I was and think she will be an ok or fair prof-SHE IS NOT. read the earliest posts or the negative ones because they are the real ones. She doesnt give grades back, wrote 15 papers for a film class, MEAN. rly a bad prof
She is drowning out the bad comments with good ones that are obviously fake. She is a rude, lazy, unfair professor DO NOT TAKE HER FOR ANYTHING--seriously worst professor I have ever had at St. John's and the only one I've taken time to rate on here bc students deserve to know what they're getting themselves in to.
I took the professor's course . I found it interesting and i recommend
Good course. This was my second course with her. I found the first one also interesting.
I liked the course, the professor really helped me
Okay where do I START. First of all I believe all the good reviews are written by the professor herself.
I really believe that the comments below are written by the professor herself. horrible professor and i mean HORRIBLE. Rude, late, strict, bipolar, gives last minute assignments, doesnt organize any lectures (seems like whatever comes off the top of her head is given as homework and classwork) makes you talk about your homework in class BAD BAD BAD
Good professor, if you are wiiling to put effort. She really helped me when I needed help.
I found the prifessor to be very helpful. She really cares. I met her in her office many times. She likes studets who work diligently and goes out of her way to help.
excellent course good professor. Good material. I liked her.
I was impressed, I am glad I took her course. No regrets. It was an easy A for me, little work but not too much!
Simply good! That is all I can say!
My first graduate course and it was very intersting for me. I acumulated so much stuff from instructions.
I did not regret the course. As a matter of fact I was pleasantly surprised because it was a good course.
I took two courses with professor. Both good. No complains. the first got little getting used to in the satart. After that it was fine.
Interesting. I liked the course.
Exactly what I needed to know. I liked the course.
I found it bit hard in the beginning but it was ok afterwards. You have to take course with open mind. Good
Great!!!!!!! I liked it
Many new ideas i learnt. Have to be focused. some effort is definitely needed. Was easy i had some knowledge from before.
i liked the course, iknow you would too!
Interesting lectures. ok course
Exactly what I wanted to learn. I knew some of the stuff from before. But even if not, you would be interested.
ok great!
It was an easy A for me. Mind you, you will have to work as in any course you are looking for A
i appreciated what the professor did for me. I admit I showed an attitude in the class. I had difficulty working for the course becuase of family problems. The professor worked it out with me and I was able to complete my course work. Very fair.
It was an interesting semester and at first I was concerened about vocab but it worked out. No sweat! Good course.
Good course. I recommend for you take the course.
It was just the kind of course I wanted to take.
I was happy with the course. Got an A, ofcourse effort was put in. She is ok, very keen.
the most ridic. class ever. Got all A's and still got a A- and thats cause thats my religion. kids who never learned about the religion PLEASE DONT EVER TAKE THIS CLASS.. its for the better. invovles a lot of work with no repay. def not worth it.
Where can I begin! Fantastic course. I worked for an A and got an A.
I would recommend, at first vocab seemed little hard but was ok. I did not know at first but learned a good bit about another religion.
Had a bit of a concern. Not my religion. I worked and did very well.
If you are interested in learning about a religion that is not yours, this is the course! A good intro.
id definitely take another course with the prof. You w'll do well.
Not knowing the tradition did not come in my way of doing well in class. It was good for me as I was interested in knowing about it.
I'm from the tradition and yet there was so muuuchhhhh i learned.
Easy to misunderstand the prof. I do not rate profs, not my habit. But I have to cause, she was fair and helped me when i was able to show my seriousness.
i was complaining, but i had to work with people from that tradition at my dad's business. The intro course was very helpful! You never know when it will be useful to you!
u would like the course. It is interesting.
I follow the religion and knew that it be easy for me. But I learned many new things and somethings I got new ideas.
I was willing to work. Not my tradition. Got a good grade.
I could have done better with a slight more effort. Fair grading, fair professor.
It is my religion. It was easy for me. But somethings were new info for me. I liked the course.
good course
What can I say! Good all round.
I thought I should let other students know that you will do ok if you take the course.
A sure A if youare prepared to work for it! There is effort needed but does not all that much that it leaves no time for other things. Reasonable effort!
an OK course. Would I recommend? yes
I have met many muslims since i took the course. It is good since i'm able to underastand the culture and why the things are done by them the way they are. There is distortion in the media. The course is helping me alot, including the vocab part that i was complaining so much about. Believe me, i found out how useful the vocab part is.
It was a good course, although not my religion, I learned many new things and got an A
I really appreciated the professor helping me, i was running out of time because of two jobs, a four year old son and all the rest. She made it possible for me to complete the course. I ended up with B+, without her help, I would have certainly failed as this religion was new for me. Do not get me wrong, she did make me earn it.
Just FYI - If you read the comments below you will clearly see that they were written by the professor herself. I got an okay grade, but it's because she plays favorites and happened to like me. I saw her attack students just because they had opinions differing from hers. And again, please take note of how she is drowning out bad comments...
OMG....the comments below were written by the professor and she is even more pathetic then i thought for doing that. Her class is WASTE OF TIME! i learned nothing and she is terribly uneducated. why did sju hire her?
Prof's excellent.
I find prof has good mat'l. My second course with her.
Very kind and considerate professor. I wish there were more professors like her. Positively, intelligent!
I appreciate Dr. Rahim for the kind of concern she has shown by helping me-even staying late after the class. A good professor. She knows lots of stuff.
The professor has helped me understand and appreciate my own rel more. Although class is not on the that rel.She is good and helpful. She does not appreciate if you'r trying to trick her. Be sincere and you will go a log ways with the course.
Unfair amount of work and doesn't realize we have other classes. Tests are on a ridiculous amount of material (you'll have to read EVERYTHING- multiple 40pg chapters). Papers due every class, not including 3-4 major essays. Attendance is mandatory, though she's always 30 min late.
I appreciate professor's effort in teaching. I am finding it interesting.
Great class. Interesting assignments. I wish all my classes were like this
Wow. The professor is really pathetic. Almost all the comments you see here are written by her. She gives you way too much work and doesn't realize we have other classes. Too hard and uptight. Don't take her!
An ok course. no sweat! Reasionable assignments.
I have taken two courses with the prof. Found interesting. Fair grading.
Stay away from this professor!!, She doesnt help you at all, gives no reviews and expects you to know everything without her even teaching it.
Assignemnts are not difficult. Mainly reports on field trips. Professor was very helpful to me during the office hour.
I had a good experience with the professor. I am planning to take another course with her.
An easy A for me, needed litle work. Compared to the briefs I had to write, this was a piece of cake.
The course was at a good pace. I liked it!
I found the course interesting. Many ideas were covered.
Good course, you can learn many details.
Good understanding of subject. I learned a lot. Good course
It was a good course for me. Because of my major, the course will help. Interesting views given by prof. Try it you be pleased.
I got new ideas from the course. It was interesting. I would advise for taking it
Prof. was helpful to me. Even stayed late to answer my questions. Good course, fair professor.
Easy grader but you do have to do alot of assignments that are really dumb and you have to listen to the same thing over and over thinks her class is all that matters even went as far as telling people their job isnt important
professor gives good work. Assignments helped me in understanding many things as they were field trips. Combining class work with real life experiences. Join you will like it
Literally the worst professor ever. And I don't use literally unless I mean it. Ridiculous homework assignments and papers every class. She grades you on things that she didn't even tell you about. It is obvious that all the good comments are written by her.I've never had to work so hard for an A-.
AVOID taking her class. She is always late. If you want to learn about islam, but dont know anything find someone else. she expects you to know things before she teaches it to you. TERRIBLE teacher & SUPER boring.
This class has no structure. What so ever. Although its an intro class, she teaches you as if you should have background knowledge. When she tries to help its almost like she's speaking a different language. DO NOT take this class!
This "lady" gives the worst assignments in life!! Her movies are from like 1910 & have the worst acting ever. It's evident she likes watching her cheesy flicks. She feels the need to make her writing prompts sound super pompous when she could have easily explained the assignment in a sentence. Queen disorganization. DO NOT TAKE HER!
Terrible with organization. Goes on tangents the entire class about whatever comes to mind that day. She makes you get a bunch of books you never use and she makes up assignments after every class. Dont take, it was a terrible class.
She's unorganized in posting the assignments, sometimes not even informing us that a new set of papers are due. She asks us to do 2-3 papers 2-3 pages long within a week, along with discussion board posts almost every week, and doesn't give feedback on the work. The only grade I've seen so far is my midterm grade on UIS. Avoid.
Terrible professor extremely hard to understand if you know nothing about the religion. Should not be an intro class the only students who understood what was happening were those who knew the religion in and out. It felt more like an Arabic language class because thats all she taught. Answers for the test were in arabic with no word bank. Hated it
Lack of communication. No rubrics. Projects don't make sense. Cool films, fun discussions, terrible Professor.
Oh man what should I say be nice with her and get an A homework are there in her all level classes. Very. Disorganised
Lectures are very discursive. They do not seem organized. She just talks in front of the class and when she occasionally answers questions she veers off topic and it's hard to tell what material will be relevant. I would suggest she make review sheets or something of the sort, but I doubt she will because it was suggested in class and she refused.
Horrible professor. Very unenthusiastic and monotone, practically whispers the lecture. Very disorganized and pretty much makes up the lecture on the spot and writes arabic words on the board as they come up. Don't expect a detailed syllabus either. Tests are matching arabic words to definitions, essays and fill in the blank with no word bank.
Very unorganized. She gives us unit assignments every 2-3 weeks. Doesn't give us any feedback or grade. It's a month away from the end of this semester and we have received no grade for any of the assignments we posted. She takes forever to answer your email. Avoid at all cost.
This class was not very organized and felt like an Arabic language class rather than an Islam class. No offense, but the students who are practicing of their religion know that she isnt really teaching the religion well.
As a Muslim, I advice you to stay away from this class. You will learn NOTHING about Islam. Its an Arabic class on steroids. So many papers, WEEKLY. Expects you to come class AND pay attention through that lecture, My God. Shes very monotone, didnt hear a word. Just stay away, please.
Horrible avoid at ALL cost.
It is December 6th, and I have yet to get any grade, not even a midterm grade on UIS. Also, we did two units in September and October, we did none in November. Then on Dec 1st, she posted 7 essays that involved travelling to a place of worship and travelling to the MOMA and writing essays on those as well as other essays. All due Dec 10th. :(
Horrible! Still waiting for grades from end of semester. Never answers email and not available ever. No assignment posted for months then all of a sudden assignments posted with short deadlines. If you want a class where the teacher cares DONT take her.
The other reviews weren't kidding. Even now in this class I could already see so many problems. She has now email at all. She has no syllabus. Her requirements for her assignments are contradictory. And she can't deal with attachment!? Instead we have to submit a text version within blackboard while trying to write it professionally with citations!
I usually wait at the end of the semester but she is would come back out of nowhere to assign us work. Can be very vague. The work is manageable. You have 10 days to do like a 6 page report or so. Its annoying that she only wants the essay to be submitted through the text submission on black board. This class is very unpredictable
There is nothing good to say about this professor. She boasts having a PhD from Harvard but she lacks the ability to teach, be on time, or listen to others. She is nonsensical with her approach to teaching students. I would give her a 0/5 if I could. AVOID HER CLASSES AT ALL COSTS! I'm shocked she still has a job.
Avoid at ALL cost. Worst professor ever. Doesnt respond to email, assignments are ridiculous, basically a class in Arabic language not religion. Should have listened to previous ratings -
Just a confusing class. It consisted of 4 units in which they would all have 2-4 papers due for each. I don't even know my grade for this class because she has graded only two of those four units and the class has finished. Late + tough grader, little to no feedback on assignments. Avoid.
This professor is by far one of the worst that I have encountered my entire student career. The work is overwhelming, they nitpick every mistake, and is almost impossible to reach out to. Horrid grader, good luck to anyone who takes them -- try to survive. P.S. the material has little to no connection with the topic of the class.
Avoid at ALL cost! I cant believe she's still allowed to teach there. Worst professor EVER - she isn't accessible via email or after class. Her material has NOTHING to do with the course and she takes forever to post grades. Has no idea about technology and thinks this is an Arabic writing class. She will drop your overall GPA!
Terrible professor, I have never encountered such a straight up rude, professor. She grades based off of other students, she does not care for you.
This Professor has me at loss for words for how incredibly horrific she is. You will not learn about Islam. She is cannot teach simply avoid!
I have never dropped a class before but she was so horrible i could not put up with her for 4 months. The only reason she has 97 5 star ratings are because she wrote those ratings herself. She is absolutely nasty to students for no reason. she is extremely inconsiderate and gives extremely long assignments. Do. Not. Take. Her.
I would often stand near the edge of the train station platform in hopes that someone pushes me unto the tracks so I can avoid going to his class. Then maybe I'll go to heaven and see Jesus who will teach me more than he ever did in 3 months
this lady sucks
It's not much work, not a challenging class if you're Muslim and know the basics. But from an outsider's perspective, I would be really confused. She is really blunt and mean sometimes, and she isn't the most tech-savvy and modern. This is a laid-back class for me, and I did learn some things that really changed my perspective on religion at least.
The class is pretty laid-back, but can be confusing for non-Muslims. The professor is blunt and not very tech-savvy. Using unstuck study ai and the free textbook helped me prepare for the assessments.
While this class is very easy, I did not learn a thing. She does not have clear grading criteria and will not give feedback to justify your grade. I had to discuss a couple of grade changes with her because they were not grounded in reasoning. You also have to agree with her during class discussions.
This teacher has no clue what she doing. She showed up to class 25 mins late on the first day and had to call IT twice to just get the board and microphone on. This layed out what exactly this class was gonna be for the semester and it was a JOKE. Easy A but you have to show up and participate in her discussions. Your only grades are 6 papers.
She has no clue what she is doing. She is arrogant and always thinks she's right. Class is incredibly unorganized, and she didn't give the class any grades to know how they were doing until about 1 week before the spring semester started. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. If you are Muslim, you're better off taking a different class, just trust me.
DO NOT TAKE HER. I usually don't pay attention to rate my professor but she is AWFUL. she makes you conugate arabic and is very offended when you don't know it. never checks her email (her words) and she one time did a lecture on sharia law and its benefits. genuinley THE WORST. she never grades anything i had to go complain about her twice.
