Professor Smith is definitely one of the best instructors I've had at UCSB or really just in general. Her class (Neurocircuitry) is super interesting and the way she orients each week around a different case study/disorder made the class very real life applicable while not being too overwhelming at all. Fun class taught by a nice person :)
Writes pretty easy question for her portion of it. memorize the slides and you are Gucci.
I was really excited to take this class and it was the complete opposite of what I was expecting. Maybe it would have been interesting if she had actually explained the material instead of just throwing out a ridiculous amount of complex terminology and expecting us to blindly memorize it. I would have appreciated being taught the actual logic.
