Reviews of professor Xiaodan Dong

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Class consists of reviewing PP slides, lots of material included. 2 midterm exams, no final. I would recommend studying for exams/working on the MASSIVE final paper/presentation (split into two parts in groups of 4-6) ASAP. However, l loved the content, I learned a ton, and I loved Prof Dong. She is so understanding and cares for her students!

Cares about students and tries to be accommodating, switched the last test to open note due to how hard online classes have been. Majority of your grades are a 60 pg paper and two presentations with a group of 5-6 other students. It can be hard if your group is bad, but you get to pick them. The lectures are a little rough, but there's extra credit

Whole class is based off group projects so make sure you get with a group you like from the beginning of the semester. However, since there was a small language barrier it was hard to understand how she wanted assignments done. the study guides didn't help you much on the test so make sure to study hard! But she's so nice, just get on her good side
