If you are interested in Chinese history, I highly recommend you to take Professor Zuo's class. The quizzes in class are very simple and have only two multiple-choice questions. The group project is to arrange a small debate with your group members (actually more like a small performance). The final is a paper to be written at home.

Took the class as P/NP, fairly easy material and its easy to get good grades. The final is not weighted heavily, so you could technically just Ace the midterm and get a P with minimal work. Lectures were pretty interesting and the class was engaging.

Very passionate about what she teaches. I was lowkey confused all quarter because it's really confusing. Pop quizzes in class, midterm and final written essays in class. Make sure to get a good TA. EACS 80
