Where do you go to school? Here at Miami we evaluate professors in every class twice a semester. I have trashed professore before because they cancelled classes too much or didn't know their material well enough to answer students' questions. I would never trash a professor because he/she told me I was required to come to class.

Miami has a policy stated in our student handbook that states, "You are expected to attend all classes for which you are registered."

If your University has a similar policy, which it probably does, then going to anyone and complaining that you don't think going to class should be a requirement, regardless of your reasoning will get you nowhere positive.

You have two options:

1)Complain that her lessons are ineffective because they are just repeats of the book, or that she doesn't know the material or something along those lines.

2)Don't read anymore, learn from the class not the book. It saves you reading time and you still learn the stuff (reading time=class time) Plus since you'll need to go to the class, you won't have to worry about her attendance policy.
