PSY1 . German T C M A Month Ago

grade was based on worksheets, short writing tasks and peer reviews, quizzes, section participation, and research participation. It sounds like a lot, but it's honestly super easy. There was no midterm or final. If you do not want to participate in research studies, you can write a paper instead, but I highly recommend the studies, its super easy.

PSY1 . German T C M 2 Months Ago

Professor German's PSY1 class was a breeze - interesting lectures, manageable quizzes, and even cat videos! Unstuck ai was super helpful for quiz prep. Definitely recommend taking this easy GE.

PSY1 . German T C M 11 Months Ago

I loved this class it was very informative and a great intro to psychology. Lectures kept you interested, she even gave phone breaks throughout topics.

PSY1 . German T C M 11 Months Ago

The grading system is very flexible; you can drop your lowest score in every category. There's no midterm or final, just weekly quizzes. The material was pretty interesting and Professor German showed a fun cat video at the beginning of each lecture. It was a very chill class overall and I would recommend it if you need an easy GE.

PSY1 . German T C M 1 Year, 2 Days Ago

very straightforward class, easy one too. she gets you involved by having students participate in research studies, and the actual classwork is a breeze. if you are familiar with psych at all, this class can be done with eyes closed. definitely attend/watch her lectures, because weekly quizzes she does are entirely based on them. sections suck tho
