FMSC302 Expecting a B+ Anonymous 10/13/2024 |
Professor Ibrahimi was exceptional! She explained the course material in a clear and digestible way, even though research methods is difficult. I learned so much from her class. I had not been exposed to research before, but she challenged and inspired me. My group and I also think she is kind and approachable, and she made learning fun. Her two graduate TAs were very slow at grading, so sometimes I had to go to Professor Ibrahimi for her to reach out to the TAs about my grade. Other times, she would grade it herself to speed things up. I highly recommend her. |

Sahra is really kind and more than willing to help students out. She's quite approachable and I always got the impression that she really wanted to help us do our best (she constantly was checking in with us, went out of her way to give us extra review materials/sessions, etc.). FMSC302 with her wasn't always interesting/engaging, but it was made better with the knowledge that the instructor was rooting for us, not against us. My only gripe was with the grading and with the way questions on homework assignments/exams were worded. Though I understand Sahra and the TAs were understandably busy, assignments would be graded sometimes 3+ weeks after they were given. My TA in particular seemed to grade our assignments extremely late compared to the other TA, who was on top of things (from what I heard). Questions on assignments were always worded in an odd, tricky way, when they absolutely didn't need to be. They'd sometimes go directly against what we went over in review sessions, which didn't make sense at all. Overall, the class was worth it especially if you want to go into public health research, and Sahra was great, but make sure you're putting in effort at all times - don't slack off! |
