She is a very hard marker as well as gives challenging assignments. people! Avoid her, if possible because you will be ending up on dropping your GPA for no reason if you take her. It was the biggest mistake of my 4 years bachelors degree to take only one course with her. She like to give you stress. Not recommended at all and not really helpful.

Jendy's lectures were absolutely painful, it got to the point where I would just download the presentation off of Moodle and not go to class unless there was an in-class assignment.

I had Jendy Wu for this class, and I had a couple of issues. One, she doesn't have a clear rubric/grading criteria of what she wants. Two, the midterm didn't have enough time to write the written portion, and many ppl complained. Three, she is a bit harsh in grading, especially with the financial statements. I wish I had taken Warren instead.

Jendy is a very fair person. Only 2/5 members from my group contributed while others sabotaged us. She was always available, even Sunday evenings, offered flexibility, and fairly prorated grades. Just stick to her requirements (IMPLEMENT ALL OF THEM), use AI responsibly (yes, you can use it to help develop your project), and you'll be fine.
