Reviews of professor Sandra Saghir

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Sandra is my first Econ Professor in university. I am so lucky to take her class and I also feel appreciated. She is always responsible and kind. When you have questions whether during the lecture or after the lecture, she always answers to your questions patiently. Her warmth is like sunshine and I really admire her!

Prof is patient. But she never replies emails and gives updates/ announcement only close to exams. TAs are fair. Midterm average is 65 only but she will make the final average to B+. I think this is just her 2nd year as a prof in McGill so she won't make the class average bad cuz herself is still new in the field and have to show performance too.

Absolutely stunning! She was a superb prof! Extremely caring, funny and her explanations are so clear. Im genuinely sad to end the semester bc I wont have the privilege to take her again for next year Econ classes. You wont regret taking her class!!

Such an amazing professor that shows the link between politics and economics in specific countries around the world. She talks A LOT and expects active participation from each student (you won't get any from participating, it's graded) , if you like seminars this format will satisfy you. Overall amazing professor, one of the best of the department

Fair prof, doesn't add much to the slides or rely on the textbooks, so it's easy to do well on the midterm and final. Only complaint is that the midterm was made way too long for an 80 minute class but she did give people a full 2 hours to do it. Lectures/taking notes in lectures not necessary.

Sandra is a lovely and compassionate person. She really does care about her students, especially the ones that come and ask her questions and ask about their midterm in office hours. If you pay attention in class and do all the practice questions, you can get an A. Her grading is quite specific so write down as much as you can.

She seems a fairly nice and caring lecturer at the beginning. But her midterm is EXCEPTIONALLY LONG. The class average is around C+ after she gave everyone a boost. I think the course content is pretty easy, and I have no idea why the average is so low. And I do not recommend anyone to take her course.

Lecture material was garbage. Class is boring. SHe repearts same thing for 10 mins which is really bothersome and she keeps talking all the time. The TA barely speaks English, which is annoying. Grading scheme is unclear and tough. You get points off on small details. Even she is a nice lady, I feel bad for her not teaching well and me taking 205
