Midterm and Final had a failing average, people should not take this class as an easy GE.

Andy is the definition of a girlboss.Not only does he support the right of students to go on strike, he also singlehandedly took over labs when the TAs striked, going above and beyond his professor duties.Also after the midterm, he curved it&offered test corrections which gave back half credit if you pay attention in class, he's pretty funny too.

Lectures are boring and the professor can't teach. Goes off on tangents and talks about irrelevant things. Just watch classes online, go to your section, and pray for a good TA because they're the ones who are helping you pass this class.

Took EARTH7 as a GE and would probably not take it again. There was a lot of content to memorize so don't consider this an easy A class. Professor was also dry in lecture. Section was good though, TA was helpful and you can easily get As on the labs if you ask for help. If the topic is something you're interested in though, it's not that bad.

Andy seems like a nice guy but I am not rockin with his teaching skills. His lectures were a confusing array of slides and anecdotes. There is a disturbing amount of material that is expected to be memorized. I relied heavily on my TA explaining the material during our weekly section.

This class was awful. I took it because I had to get more units in and thought it wouldnt be that hard but I was wrong. The labs and homework are the only reason I passed and that was because I got a good TA. However, he had no set grading procedures and gave a midterm and final that he made worth 50% at the last minute. DO NOT TAKE!!
