She's probably a 2-3 by general standards, but a 4-5 by QMS standards. Watch the prerecorded lectures, but live is just practice problems. Lots of issues with the class are department wide.

Mahsa is a solid Prof. I had her when classes were online and all lectures were prerecorded, and attending the actual class was not mandatory. She replies to emails quickly, is understanding, and does a-lot of practice questions. If you are having difficulty with a particular question/ topic, just ask and she will go over it in class.

Honestly, Mahsa was a good professor. The course itself sucked because of the overkill first midterm and the final being somewhat irritating. But as a professor, Mahsa was really nice and overall taught the material properly. She gave us the resources needed to practice but, if you are aiming for a A- and above, I suggest you practice the material.

She's the best choice out of all the profs for qms110 but I definitely expected more based on reviews I read. Bit of an accent which made things hard to understand sometimes(not huge issue though).Prerecorded lectures+slides given before class and she just takes up some review qs during the zoom call. Nice person but isn't the best at explaining qs
