Cody Buntain INST414 Expecting an F Anonymous 02/02/2024	I got shoulder surgery at the end of the semester after it had its date changed closer unexpectedly, and I emailed him the day after I could lift my arm for the first time and this guy didn't accept two of my projects that said "no due date". Even though turned them in before the end of the semester, and this caused my grade to go from a 78 to failing when the quality of the projects were certainly high enough that I should have at least finished with a B. If you don't believe me, I'll back it up. Here's the two projects. (There was max word limits and I hit them) https://medium.com/@crydel2/clustering-powerlifters-best-lifts-based-on-their-euclidian-distance-849a1c4cbe13 AND https://medium.com/@crydel2/ranking-real-estate-properties-for-similarity-239271d1e1b8 if you're reading this cody, there was no need to be so rude I was obviously under stress from the surgery, and I learned more from your class than half your students as they couldn't even answer your in class questions correctly.
Cody Buntain INST414 Expecting an A Anonymous 01/05/2024	For the main medium posts you’ll definitely need assistance whether it’s using AI or going to office hours because in my experience these took the longest to get done. You get extensions on the medium assignments but for in class exercises, quizzes and semester project deliverables it’s a strict due date but it’s pretty fair in my opinion since the exercises and quizzes can be done in class and the project is spread out through the semester and each deliverable isn’t too much work. Just to note, a lot of the content of this course is geared towards understanding the principles pertaining to the data science career field. You'll learn various principles, methods, and techniques of data science, and be taught to understand the use cases of these concepts. Code examples are also provided in order to get a better understanding of these concepts and help you with the in-class exercises.

The in-class exercises were difficult and I rarely completed them in class, but they were mostly graded for completion. Felt like a lot of the content went over my head. Not too hard to get a high grade.
