HIST177 . Chavez-Garcia 7 Months Ago

Prepare for a LOT of reading. She is a tough grader and will have you cite sources on the midterm and final. I worked very hard in this class and only got a B. I knew plenty of people who failed. One thing that was good-- the midterms and final written answers she usually picks a topic we know well and discuss a lot in class.

2 discussion posts, a midterm, and a final. A lot of reading and the midterm and final together make up 80% of your grade. A good grade is far from impossible in this class is you put in the effort.

HIST144B . Chavez-Garcia 5 Years Ago

Interesting and informative lectures, work throughout the quarter can be very time consuming. It's not a class for those looking for an easy A. She doesn't take attendance and it's easy to slip out of class but a lot of the info in lecture+ readings is what will be on the exam. She randomly selects 3 essay prompts out of 6 for the exams.

Overall she is a pretty average professor. Her lectures are a bit disorganized and she doesn't give a clear outline of everything you need to know. You can just do all the readings and not go to lecture; it really just depends on your TA so try and tell if they are a easy grader (most are) but if you get Marina Chavez, take it pass/ no pass.

I took her for CH ST 1B and it was her first time teaching the class so it seemed that she wasn't familiar with the material. Overall she's a good professor but to get a good grade you have to do the readings and attend all sections

There is a lot of reading for this course that is repetitive but still interesting. The professor gets the material for the lecture from the reading so going to class isn't always necessary, unless there is a guest speaker. Essay prompts and identifications for the tests are given in advance. Do all the readings and attend section!
