Easy GE class. Not much else. Both the midterm and final were online and very easy.

EARTH20 . Li G 2 Months Ago

Easiest GE of all time... literally easier than most of my high school classes. Professor Li is extremely chill and nice, but lecture is not mandatory in the slightest as he reads the slides word for word. Show up to section to go over homework assignments (which are also really easy) and you'll 100% pass the course. 1000000% recommend!

Chillest class on Earth(20). Professor is a kind fella!

EARTH20 . Li G 3 Months Ago

Don't bother going to lectures; he only goes over the lecture slides word for word, so you can self-teach. Professor hard to understand sometimes. Attend the sections for more clarification and help. Midterm and final were both online (Open-note). Super EASY GE overall! Midterm average was a 96%!

EARTH20 . Li G 3 Months Ago

Homework assignment every week based on lecture slides which is easy. Very detailed slides available on canvas if you miss class. TA Shane was great. Easy GE. Passed with A+ with average effort.
