CollegeProfessor G is a great professor. He cares a lot and will give you a good grade if he sees you trying. In office hours before the final he basically gave us all the questions on the final. His grading is super lenient and he tries really hard to help where he can. Taking him again next quarter.
Lets you bring 2 pages of notes to tests, EXTREMELY, extremely lenient grader, and releases practice problems the night before the exams that are basically exactly the same as the ones on tests. One of the greats, his classes are not fail-able, ignore what everyone says. Just show up to 2 classes: the midterm and final, and you'll pass I promise.
Didn't know how to pace the course for Summer Session B, so we were told to attend two extra lectures at 7:45 PM during our finals week. High expectations for students' understanding while simultaneously leading disjointed, confusing lectures. Luckily, he's a very lenient grader. He's a good guy, but would avoid in future upper divs.
Karen is a genuinely good person and although I don't always understand 100% of the lecture material, he always tries to make it more entertaining. Would take him again, but the class isn't easy.
This was the worst class I have taken. Can be funny at times, but it doesn't make up for all the disorder and confusion. It's almost guaranteed that he loses track and forgets he is teaching a lecture. In my experience, my understanding and grade hinged off of the TA - exams were difficult and confusing. Participation is rewarded heavily. Good luck
Prof Grigorian is very passionate and lighthearted with the classes he teaches and will often explore interesting concepts (outside of usual class scope) or applications related to the course content. Curves classes based on class difficulty and is very lenient with grading. Make sure to attend lectures and PARTICIPATE ALOT, and youll get an A
