Reviews of professor Kimberly MacKay

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
The U of S comp sci department is awful many students leave thinking they aren't good enough when the fact of the matter is the professors are the incompetent ones. I hope anyone reading this leaves the U of S ASAP and does CS at a different school because you will learn to hate this field going to this school. ALL Profs are so lazy and creepy.

I messaged professor Mackay at the beginning of the semester asking for help. She told me that this is a heavy course and that if I felt like it was too hard for me that I was welcome to take an easier one next semester, and that clearly she would be seeing me in the 'help hours'. she made me feel stupid and small. Did not help me or teach me once.

Kim is an amazing prof! She is funny, smart, helpful, and makes the early class so enjoyable. I personally hated the actual content of the class, as computer science is not interesting to me and I found it quite complicated. However, Kim always offers extra help when needed and there are a lot of external resources if needed. Textbook is a must.
