SPAN 2020

I had Professor Mehfoud and she was a really great professor! This is a hard class, and it is also standardized, so Mehfoud didn't have any say over the material or the way the exams were formatted. That being said, she definetly made this class easier than I've heard it can get, which was awesome. It was a good amount of work, but just make sure to set aside the proper amount of time to do the connect homework in the beginning and you'll do good. I am ending with an A-, and could be ending with an A had i locked in for the first exam, so make sure to prepare for the first exam! I think the exams actually got easier as the semester went on, which is unexpected but helpful. She provided lots of resources and repasos for the exams, so make sure to look over those.

The grade break down:
30% final project that you work on in and out of class
20% graded discussions and "lecturas"
15% exams (3 exams total, no final exam)
10% participation
10% connect (daily homeworks - online)
5% quizzes
5% cultural experience
5% final reflection

tl;dr
hard class, mehfoud makes it better than the other professors!
