Reviews of professor Karen Edwards

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
The material was challenging for me, but the class offered opportunities to do well (extra credit on every homework assignment and test). There were 3 "midterms" and a final exam. You are allowed an index card cheat sheet, but I didn't really need mine. Homeworks take a long time, but plenty of office hours throughout the weed.

I absolutely loved this class and Karen. She's so thoughtful and smart, and its clear that she really cares about the content. Get ready though! This class was TOUGH. The homework take forever and aren't worth a ton of your grade, but they really help with understanding the material. The tests are definitely difficult.

Her lectures were engaging and she managed to explain difficult concepts in an easy to understand way. The homeworks were long and much more difficult than the problems discussed in class.

Tough grader, unclear grading criteria, and lots of homework.

She is a great lecturer and super nice. Homework is borderline impossible with tough grading. Exams are just rough and she takes forever to grade. However, she is a really nice person and teaches very effectively, so its worth it.

Karen is great at her job and very obviously invested in her students' success. Lectures are clear and informative. She also offers many opportunities for extra credit and plenty of OH. The tests can be a little tricky but if you do the readings, go to recitation, and just generally make sure you really get the concepts they're definitely doable.
