Amazing and iconic. Her class is both reasonable and interesting. She’s kind and one of the best professors I’ve had, not just at UCLA, but across all my schools, including community college and non-econ classes. I strongly recommend her.

From the first day of class, it became evident that Professor Lleras Muney is not only an expert in her field but also a passionate and dedicated educator. The course content, focused on understanding poverty and its practical applications, is not only relevant but also presented in a way that makes complex concepts accessible to all students.

One of the standout features of this course is the dynamic and engaging lectures. Professor Lleras Muney brings the subject matter to life with her enthusiasm and real-world examples.

I enjoyed this class. It is mainly group projects, there's one tough individual paper review assignment.

It's an assignment driven class, no midterm and no final I think there were around 6 assignments, 5 of them group assignments. Your lowest assignment grade is dropped and all assignments are resubmittable if you don't like your grade. You will have to resubmit 1-2 to get an A+ really as the grading is harsh because you can resubmit them. The assignments sometimes require R so having one person in your group who knows R is essential. One of the assignments was make a regression equation from a data set in R and write 2 pages about your results. Another was reading 2 papers and discussing their validity etc. One was a presentation for and against free college. There is a lot of extra credit on offer.

The lectures are not recorded and grade on attendance through live quizzes but you're not tested on the material in an exam or anything.

It takes up quite a lot of your time especially mid quarter but it's a good class and if you work hard for an A+ you will get one.

I learnt a lot from the content of this class about economic mobility in the USA. It widened my perspectives and I recommend taking it just for that.

Professor is friendly and approachable, especially in class, slightly less friendly in office hours but may just have been having a bad day. You won't really need to attend office hours though.
