Reviews of professor Larisa Kurtovic

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Prof takes attendance very seriously if your someone who likes to do readings and powerpoint outside of class sometimes don't take her class after 4 missed classes you automatically fail her class and she takes attendance randomly. easy grade but be prepared to put in the work, she treats her students like your in high school

Get ready to read read read. Practically her entire exams are based on the readings. Figure out how to read quickly but also get the point otherwise, good luck. Good teacher available out of class. Midterm messed me up :(

Finished this class with a 90%. The Midterm and Final are easy, they are take home and you have 1-2 weeks to complete them. Zackary (TA) is a unnecessarily hard grader who will take off massive points for tiny mistakes. To get 100% attendance you need class participation and go to office hours. I highly recommend this class, Larisa is amazing :)

Don't take her class if you think it's just going to be an easy and fun elective. The readings are actually discussed in class and are important for assignments; if you do not read them, you will not do well. She is a good prof but a little uptight. Do not take this class unless you're willing to put in the work.

Dont take her class under the precept that its a fun and chill elective. Unless youre willing to put in work, this is not the class for you. (That doesnt make her a bad prof, just a warning for those thinking itll be an easy ride).

One of the best professors I've had. Readings were posted on brightspace including an online source to the ethnographic book we needed for the final. Fair grader, lots of feedback. One assignment, one in-class midterm & take-home final (no mind tricks, all topics discussed in readings and in class). 100% recommend taking this class and others w her

Super great prof and an easy course. Lectures are mandatory and she includes visiting office hours in the participation mark so make sure you go at least once. There were a lot of readings however I barely read them and still managed an A+ so if you can skim readings well it is an easy A.
