not an easy a. had annoying pop quizzes...i'm normally a a/a- student and in hard sci classes too but the prospect of continuously studying was tiresome and to me not worth it...i got a B+ but note with very little effort..i was uninterested in the material and too stubborn to do the work..if you enjoy the subject matter dive into the material otherwise not worth it.. but he was nice person though. gave us ice cream at the end of the quarter and field trip that involved the beach/palisades which was cool i guess the b+ was my own fault

Winter 2023 - Super easy science GE! The final two assignments (term paper - 45% and Martian activity) were extremely easy and seemed to be graded on effort/completion. You do have to attend every class to take quizzes worth a decent portion of your grade, but the three lowest quizzes are dropped. Don't let this professor's ratings scare you! He is genuinely so sweet and if you need a science GE this is the one to take
