  • The issue isn't with the professor or the course-- the TA for this course is way too difficult compared to the course material. The instructions for the assignments are clear but the TA always marks it based on criteria that wasn't entirely available to us. Plus the TA only provides general feedback to the whole class so you don't get a clear understanding of what you specifically did wrong in order to ask about it. The course itself is interesting and Professor Chenier is the best (as usual). She keeps the class super engaging and fun. Just not a fan of the marking style at all.
