Awesome
As long as you listen and follow along with the lectures during class than you should be able to pass. The online HW is more challenging than what was learned in class and what will be on the exam, but if you finish it you get credit. The exams are straight forward and pretty easy. It shouldn't be hard to pass this class.

Awful
Professor Paullin is a very awful teacher. Her lectures did not coincide with the Webwork she assigned. Also, she did the most basic teaching level in class but our homework was in senior Calculus level. The main reason to attend the class is for participation grade purposes only. Honestly, it's really a waste of time if you will go.

Awful
Professor Paullin isn't good at explaining content and makes things seem way harder than they are. She just seems to care about sounding smarter than the students.

Professor Paullin was a very nice person who I have respect for, but the lectures and the homework had zero correlation. There was no point in going to the lectures. Looking down at the free textbook will teach you more. Just don't take the class.
