Zain Alabden Hussein Ali“I found the questions on the final exam fair, but I found the length of the exam unfair. I knew all the material but really struggled to finish the exam in time. I felt very stressed by the time pressure and may not have performed my best.”
The course could be recorded which would help with studying, I could easily just go back and listen to that part of the class. -
