he is hilarious! attendance was consistent because he was just that amazing of a lecturer and as a person! i emailed him on a current study on something we were covering (so not mandatory ASAP email) and he responded within a couple hours, so super accessible!!! he was super nice and funny, very clear grading (midtermx2, final). get the textbook!

Professor Fridlund is one of the best professors I've had at UCSB. Though the class was hard, and I recommend taking him for upper divisions instead, his lectures, explanations, and ability to make students understand the groundwork of psychological processes, experiments, and theories are unparalleled.

one of the best lecturers i've had and he's is a funny guy who cares a lot about this profession! go to his office hours to chat with him if you're interested in clinical psych. my tip is to do the study guide throughout the lecture and form study groups to solidify the material for your exams. an A is doable.

This will be a prof/class that I remember for life. One of the few classes that had high attendance the WHOLE quarter bc everyone was hooked. Fridlund is funny, kind, and is knowledgable/passionate about the content. I wish I could take another class with him & cannot recommend this class enough. Go to class, form a study group, and you'll do fine!

I loved this class and Professor Fridlund! Attendance isn't mandatory but I highly suggest attending. He is very funny and makes interesting commentary. Your grade depends entirely on your midterm and final which is very content-heavy. I regret not getting the textbook porbs would've ended up with A instead of B.

This professor is so fun. Made lectures digestible and provided good commentary on the material. Grade is solely based on midterm and final. Memorize the slides and read the book and you are guaranteed an A. Super fun and interesting class, highly recommend.
