Reviews of professor Carolina Dufour

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Dr. Dufour was great! Although the first midterm was kinda hard (class average aroung 70), there were many assignments that were great practise for the final. Final class average was A-. Only thing that sucked was that lectures were not recorded (where she drew diagrams that were on the test), but the slides were enough for passing the class

Assignments were quite tough but to the point where it forced you to learn the material and was extremely helpful in doing well on the exams. Class is super interesting and she is a strong teacher. She made it very understandable for a non science student and although it was definitely a difficult elective, I'm happy I took her class.

Solid professor and an overall light course with the class average being an A-. Lectures and recordings are all online and it is honestly mostly memorization. The midterm avg was very low but a crib sheet is allowed for the final. If I had to suggest anything, it would be to go to office hours frequently as it is so helpful for this course.

DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS. She's a horribly harsh grader. This class is a 200 level and she makes it like a 400 level course. Been at mcgill for 5 years and have never seen such a harsh grader. If you are in eng and you're thinking of taking it as an easy A elective DO NOT DO IT.  Don't make my mistake.

Good lecturer and really knows her stuff. Answers questions amazingly, allows cribsheet on the final, midterm and final exam are very fair. However, my year there was a lot of work to do but the grading distribution was very little for every thing we had to hand in.
