Reviews of professor Samara Burns

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Overall pretty good. Sometimes her lectures were a bit hard to follow, but for the most part they were good. The assignments were a lot of work but the tests werent too bad. Work hard and youll do fine

Followed the course pretty much from Jack MacIntosh. She was INCREDIBLE though. Go to her office hours, read the textbook.

TA for Symbolic Logic at Columbia University. She's really nice, accessible for help during office hours, and thorough in her explanations.

One of the best prof I've had. Posts test questions in advance so you know exactly what to study for (hard questions but fair). Made the final exam take-home. Posts very detailed and well-written lecture slides. Approachable and kind. Now, the course material is tricky so don't expect a cakewalk, but it's very doable with Samara teaching!

She was super nice on a personal level and very helpful one on one in office hours, but as a graduate student teaching other students her lectures were not the best

she's very approachable and understanding and her grading is very generous. will round up if you're close to the boundary and the grade weighing is very evenly distributed throughout the semester so no test is too stressful. dont have to go to class if you just skim the textbook. definite gpa booster.

Better than the other Phil profs in that she's young, and she posts notes and practice on d2l. She teaches straight out of the textbook, so you don't really need to attend lecture. Her assignments are HARD, but its fair since they're worth 10% each. Posted practice test is super similar to the actual exam. Stay on top of it, you should get an A.
