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.

She's been teaching this class awhile and you can tell. She rocks. exams weighted 15/20/25% based on your worst-best exam, weekly quizzes 7%, participation 13%, writing assignment 10%. can bring a front and back cheat sheet to exams.

Phenomenal professor, her lectures were extremely clear and easy to follow. Her exams were also very fair according to what she taught during lectures. One of the most interesting classes I've taken at ucsb by far.

Super sweet lecturer who is very passionate about the subject. I personally found the lectures kind of boring but that's party because the material isn't all that interesting to me. 3 exams and weekly quizzes + discussions w/ a very fair and generous grading policy. Exams can be hard but she provides many study resources. Lectures have iclicker.

LOVE HER!! love the class, engaging lecturer, fair (and easy) tests, and obviously wants her students to succeed. i plan to take more psych classes with her in the future

Awesome professor-- great grading criteria, humorous, open to questions, straightforward tests, allows cheat sheets, etc. She wants students to succeed and it's incredibly obvious in her passion for teaching the material. Attend ULA sessions if you need help (they're a great resource); MCDB 6 and EEMB 7 are great preparation for the class.

i wish she taught all my classes. she was amazing and made it clear she wanted each and every one of us to succeed. i loved the way she organized the course so carefully.

Genuinely amazing and healed my trauma from the bio series. Noncumulative exams with cheat sheet (use it! so helpful), and questions are not trying to trick you. Also gave an easy extra credit point. Has lots of opportunities for studying/getting help, she wants you to succeed!

Dr. Scudder is the best! Three exams which are not cumulative with double sided cheat sheets able to be used on the exams. ULAs for the course with tutoring sessions to help you succeed.
