POLI1021 · How to Rule the World: Introduction to Political Theory

Would take again

professor is very funny and if you skim the readings before lecture you'll be fine because he goes over it. that being said there are weekly quizzes in discussion section based on the most irrelevant random details that have nothing to do with reading comprehension.

UNAS 2211 Food,Race and Nation | Her classes are nice and simple, course fulfills cultural diversity core(I think) and if you genuinely enjoy food and/or Asian American history you'll find the material interesting, she brings food sometimes to class which is really great, awesome final project

ECON1101 · Principles of Economics

Would not take again

If you studied Econ before, just take a test and do the work she gives you. Otherwise, if you have never studied before, don't take it.

BZAN2021 · Coding for Business

Would take again

I think she's one of the best professors for business coding, explains all the concepts in a very very understandable way and helps everyone. Definitely reccomend.

FREN4433 · True Fiction: From Philosophy to Literature

Would take again

I think he is a must-take philosophy professor. His style is different, not really engaging, sometimes boring. Yet, through yap there is a lot of high-level discussions, content, and learning with jokes here and there. He is a real one.

SLAV2162 · Classics of Russian Literature (in Translation)

Very eccentric character that cares for his students. Gets along greatly with everyone as long as you attend and participate.

EESC1701 · Building a Habitable Planet: Geoscientific Perspectives

Would take again

Passionate guy who teaches interesting material in a new light. Yet, his ego shines through at times, and he is a overly-harsh grader. Overall mixed bag.

HIST1001 · Europe in the World 1

Would take again

Not great, not bad. Pretty boring and dry, but pretty easy quizzes and exams. It'll be a fine way to fulfill your history core.

Deeya Mitra

Would take again

(Developmental Psych class) Good professor, very kind and forgiving. I would only say that the class can be a bit dry, but has some parts that are very interesting. I would definitely recommend you take Prof. Mitra.

ENGL1010 · First Year Writing Seminar

Would not take again

As a decent writer, I do not think it is possible to get an A, let alone a B+ in his class without devoting your life to the art of writing.

Shih-Yuan Liu

CHEM1118 · Honors Modern Chemistry II

Would not take again

Avoid at all costs. He barely explains anything, you would be better off just studying from the textbook. He is the perfect example of a professor who cares only about research, but does not know how to teach.

CHEM1110 · General Chemistry II

Would take again

for genchem 2, lecture was organized and exams weren't completely unreasonable. But, I don't feel like he's great at explaining why concepts are the way they are or connecting them to previous ideas. I felt like I had to teach myself a lot of that

PSYC1110 · Brain, Mind, & Behavior

Super old guy with really boring lectures. But, I studied and did the readings with friends and we all got above 100 in the class

BIOL2000 · Molecules and Cells

Would take again

Pretty much all review if you took AP Bio. The exams were generally pretty hard and detailed but Professor Taghian is very receptive and helpful in office hours.

Priya Lal

MATH3312 · Algebra II

Would not take again

Lectures aren't recorded but feel like a giant waste of time. She doesn't come prepared and often only gets through about 5 slides of information. You can skip/ skim most readings though and get through in discussion.

Dawei Chen

MATH3312 · Algebra II

Would take again

He's very helpful in office hours but lectures are just copying long definitions. The tests are short and weighted very heavily, so a small mistake will cost you. Also, weekly problem sets graded for accuracy.

COMM2125 · Introduction to Feminisms

She is a very sweet and understanding professor. There are a few readings for every class but they are interesting. She's very open to feedback and changes her lesson plans according to student interests.

BIOL3040 · Cell Biology

He is very nice and cares a lot about the subject. Very kind during office hours. You do have to listen and take detailed notes in class to do well on the exams are hard.

CLAS2205 · Greek History

Would take again

Very clear and organised professor. Everything is neatly laid out on canvas and lectures are very easy to understand and digest. All exams are on canvas to take outside of class. Participation is a big part of class. Highly recommend taking it though.

BIOL2010 · Ecology and Evolution

Would not take again

Her tests will have SUPER SMALL DETAILS and even if you thought you knew the answer, the wording of the questions are MADE TO TRICK YOU no matter how well you know the material. Also the TAs are all useless and on a power trip for some reason when it comes to grading.

MATH1007 · Ideas in Mathematics

Would not take again

Nice, and funny guy. Made the material much more confusing than it was. Should've been easy A but his teaching style and organization made this class extremely hard to follow. Curve in the class, though.

Arissa Oh

HIST1621 · The "Other" Americans: Representation and Reality in Asian America

Would not take again

She is perhaps the most "lenient" professor you will ever have in college, and do not think that emailing her asking about your grades is a good idea. She is perhaps also the most "diligent" professor you will ever have in college, and do not think that I mean this as a compliment.

Legend, this class is super easy and he's great. If you don't get 100 on a test you can make up all the points.
