Reviews of professor Maitrayee Bose

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
The material in this class was not difficult but Bose was not a good teacher. She randomly does in class assignments-& uses those for attendance as well-so you can skip if you do really well on tests & homework, but otherwise don't expect an A if you skip. During test reviews she would tell us she didn't even know the answers.

Out of every single class Ive ever taken, this has been the class Ive struggled the most with. She doesnt go over quanititve problems step by step and doesnt properly prepare you for exams. No matter how much I would study she would basically play games with us on it, making it difficult. In class activities will mess up your grades.

She's very knowledgeable and thinks anyone is capable. But she does not explain quantitative problems or want to, makes a lot of questions trick ones, can be somewhat rude. She also does not answers emails or messages because she wants you to talk to her in person, but there's a whole line waiting after class. Tests require a deep understanding.

I took this class my sophomore year of Fall 2018. It was too math intensive for someone that usually does not have trouble with that. Too many unnecessary pop quizzes (my class never got most of them right anyhow) and overall there was never a study guide to be able to pass. Keep in mind that the lab itself was a million times easier as I got an A

Awesome class, no tests. I'm going through it right now and it's a breeze. The labs are fun and the class in general is super cool. The video posits can be repeated and are super helpful in learning about the core concepts that you will need in the upper division AST and SES courses. For those in an AST major, easy A+.

She doesn't like explaining things, the reason she doesn't allow phones or laptops is because you can fact check her values, if you search on google for a quantitative answer(you only have 3 tries you'll need help at some point), she randomly asks for scientific notation without saying. She doesn't like explaining things, wants you to read before.
