I loved this class. Professor Narang's lectures are fantastic. He is a clear and dynamic lecturer. I understand the hybrid structure of the class, but I wish we had more face time with him. The assignments and grading are fair, but your TA matters. I would take this class again.

I had the hybrid version of this class and it was fairly simple. My TA was a G! The midterms and final papers were PAINFUL but over swiftly. You get a week to do it. Lectures were informative and if you follow them REALLY CLOSELY, you could get away with skimming the textbook.

I'd highly recommend taking any class w/ Narang, he's a great lecturer and is super sweet & funny too! Class required lots of reading but I found that lecture basically summed reading up. Also, probably the easiest political science class imo and very interesting too!

One of my favorite professors ever. Definitely take his class if you can. Super nice guy and really informative and entertaining lectures. Lecture attendance not mandatory but he covers the same info as the textbook so I never read and went to lecture instead. Easy to get a good grade as long as you pay attention. Love him

Professor Narang is a great guy, and great lecturer too. Lots of assigned readings but I was rarely on top of those tbh and no problems ever really came up from that. Section was kinda lame but easy points.
