c127 neuroendocrine of reproduction. Interesting Course. I liked the material. Arnold gives some lectures. And faculty from the medical school gives other lectures. Grading wise, get wrecked. Not a class if you're looking for an easy A course. Just take c152 or the class taught by Edgerton if you have a tight quarter. This class fucked up my GPA right before I sent out medical school apps, and regreted taking it over Edgerton's course. One midterm and one final. Typical physci exam and is graded up the ass.

Winter 2023 - Dr. Colwell is a very good lecturer. I wasn't super into the topic of the class going into it, but it was worth listening to lectures because he was entertaining and made you want to learn the material. The class wasn't too difficult either, and as long as you review lecture slides, the quizzes, midterm, and final are all very manageable. Would highly recommend this class to all Phy Sci majors.
