Just don't screw up on the tests; make sure to show your work thoroughly so that you won't lose any points.

It is pretty hard, but I can still keep up with it for the most part. I just don't do well on tests and exams.

In this class you need to review material at home, In addition, when you don't finish classwork you must do it at home because she often checks for it. When taking tests show ALL work. She will take points off for anything. However, hw is not often graded and when it is it is only worth 2-3 points.

well, I would say write down whatever notes that she tells you to take in class, it'll definitely help on tests. If you don't understand something, ask her, she will help. She might be a bit strict on the tests but she such an AMAZING teacher, I'm so glad I got her for 2 years! If you do your classwork and homework and study for the tests, I'm sure you'll do fine!
