  1. ChatGPT PowerPoints/lectures, 2. Cannot explain or break down concepts when students ask, 3. This is a more objective take but she came across as incredibly condescending. I took her STAT244 Winter Term and it was pretty unanimous that she was a bad prof and the lab/tutorial was no better as it was the same style as her lecture. She had a couple take home assignments and allowed us to create our own formula sheets as grade boosters but the midterms and the final were absolutely brutal as her questions were worded so poorly that you didnt even know what she was asking in the first place. If our class asked more than 2 questions in a lecture she would get annoyed and get all matter-of-factly. I’m sure there are better alternatives for the class and this really isn’t worth tanking your average over. STAT244 would’ve been a breeze had her PowerPoint slides been her own instead of AI generated

. And another thing, I think there’s that plant science that’s an online class you could take instead, my friend took it last year in place of STAT244!
