Basically (<- get used to hearing this word) she was average. Her teaching was not great, not much better than the textbook (though I found that if I went to lecture I didn't need to read the textbook). Midterm average: 56%, Final average: 41% so her tests were pretty hard. Her grading on the tests was not generous as the M16 student noted. You need to FINISH the problem and double check it to get full credit. In some senses it was more beneficial to spend your time doing the easier problems and checking them to get points for certain.

Don't know why she got such a bad rating here. I thought Cabric was a good professor. She explained the concepts clearly in lecture. I always left feeling like I understood the material better. In addition, her homework and tests seemed fair to me. Cabric gets the job done, and I would recommend her.

For the longest time I never understood why Cabric gets such a low rating here. I had her for M16 and 102 and I thought she was fairly good, though a little boring during lectures. Homework was easy for M16 but challenging for 102. She was friendly in office hours and you could tell she actually cared about doing a good job in lecture. Her TA's where horrible however. In both cases (M16 and 102) her midterms were very straightforward and too easy, but the finals were both tricky. I hear a lot of people complain about the difficulty of her finals, but personally I think that it is just that they are very difficult compared to the midterms. To be fair her finals are difficult but fair, so you just have to be prepared. I'm no genius but I worked hard in her classes and did well. She's not strict with her grading policy either. I was in the top 20% for 102 and got an A. Seems pretty standard to me.

She could not explain the point very efficiently and clearly. Feel she is the worst prof I have ever met. I asked some of my friends, most of them do not understand what she was talking. Also, I would like to say she gives scores totally depends on whether she like you or not. Her 209AS scores are all about the final projects without exam. The project is open. So, if she likes your idea and you, fortunately, you will get high scores even you nenver show up in class. Otherwise, no matter how cool and difficult your idea is, or how hard you work on this project, sorry, you have no chance to get high scores from her even you get a nice result. Sometimes, you will feel it is unfair to give you such scores. In a word, she gives scores without any relation to the academic performance.
