Actually had her for 111 and 133. Both class have a two take home exams open for 5-6 days open note and all but are difficult and then around 4 worksheets for the quarter. 133 was a very interesting class, no textbooks super good prof! Records lectures and posts if you can't make it in person.

Professor Scudder is easily one of my favorite professors that I have had in my four years at UCSB! She split lectures up by topic, so everything was very organized. The lectures themselves were incredibly concise yet somehow still very detailed, which I loved. Tests were challenging but not bad if you knew the material, weekly quizzes aren't bad.

Loved the topics she taught in 106, along with her outlines of what is being taught is very straight forward and to the point. Very passionate for what she is teaching, and her grading scale is super fair, even if you do poorly on one exam, you can pick yourself up. 10/10

Really enjoyed taking 106 with her, attendance is not directly tracked but you should go to lecture

Super interesting lecturer and great class. Clearly passionate about what she teaches. Explains things really well and gives you a cheat sheet for every exam. Final isn't cumulative and gives you other opportunities to get your grade up. Also makes your worst exam score count less than your best exam score, if you bomb a test can still do well.

I love Dr. Scudder!!! She was an amazing professor and really cared about her students succeeding. She is very sweet and passionate about neuroscience. The course was set up to help you- weekly quizzes and discussions, 3 tests, multiple choice, front and back cheat sheet allowed (she gives templates of info to know too), and a super simple essay.
