Review Your Program
* Overall educational experience
Academic rigor, intensity, resources, etc. |
There were time where I thought the workload was a bit much, but it wasn't. I feel as though the workload was reasonable and I learned quite a bit and that the work given was for our (my groups benefit) it just depended on your work ethic and what you were willing to learn. I enjoyed the selections given to my class and the work being assigned has really taught me a lot not only about the course but about myself. |
