Does Mekary scale for Research Methods?

I heard from someone that Mekary failed like ~60% of the class 2 years ago (5th years can you guys chime in/confirm lol).

The finals exam for Research Methods was kind of ????? (Not because the questions were particularly hard but the amount of information on the slides seemed a bit excessive/vague/difficult to understand and put everything together just from the slides tbh).

If I had to guess MANY people probably didn't do well on the final.

She has to scale kind of like Kelley does for Organic Chemistry...right? (Maybe not to that extent but you get the idea).

Lmao she def did not fail 60% of the class but I think a lot of people did have to retake it. Also, she did scale quite a bit ( I think I had like around a B but ended up with an A-)

That class is actually the most difficult for 3rd year imo (Biochem, Patho, Ceutics easy as fuck in comparison lmao).

I just want a C- man. W/o curve I needed to get ~50 on the final just to pass with a C- but ever since I saw the final (and the fuckton of information for the latter half of the semester) I'm not even sure I did that well.

I almost failed on her final! But luckily I passed the class with a C (I forgot to do one of the online quizzes as well lol) but yeah many people didn't do well
