Reviews of professor Gergina Pencheva

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
This professor is by far one of the worse at UT Austin. Her lectures were scrambled and unprepared. Her handwriting was atrocious and her notes made no sense at all. 2nd test everyone showed up to a test postponed note on the board cuz she had not prepared the test. At the final they were short on tests so it was postponed by 15 minutes.DONT TAKE

By the time we took our final exam, we still hadn't gotten our grades or feedback from the second exam. I had an A- until grades came out and I have no clue what I messed up on or needed to work on. Lectures are very boring and class can be very disorganized. If you need to take discrete for credit, I would definitely look at other professors.

One of the worst professors I've ever had, seriously take this class the next semester if you can't get anyone else.

Professor Pencheva's tests became easier throughout the semester but her lectures became more difficult to understand. She would frequently speed through them without properly teaching the material (even though she said it wasn't a self-paced class) to get us finished with the content. Friendly and genuinely cares about you. Strong-willed humor.

Very unorganized, the questions on quizzes and tests were pretty much exactly like the homework questions and fairly easy. Her lectures are confusing and messy, so I just learned the topics through YouTube videos. There is quite a bit of extra credit on tests and reviews, so getting an A is doable.

Do. not. take. her. Please I understand you need this class for credit but please reconsider taking her class. I have been there and it may have been the worst decision I have taken in my life. She cannot teach nor should have the privilege to do so. Please please please do not.

Lecture style was frustrating, she would spend too much time on easy-to-grasp stuff and barely enough on tough content. Homework load was overwhelming. Most stress came from this class. Extra credit and exam curves saved my grade.

her lectures make zero sense... spend the whole class doing useless proofs and just leaves us to figure out the homework on our own. don't take her unless you have to
