I would recommend anybody to take this course. The material is extremely useful to your everyday life and very engaging. Professor Korb is great and you can tell he is genuinely passionate about the content. The work load is pretty light but I still felt like I learned a lot because I was interested in the content.

This class was amazing and I would recommend anybody to take it. The material is engaging and beneficial to your life, and Professor Korb is great. The work load is very manageable but I still felt that I learned a lot from this course and look forward to implementing the knowledge into my daily life.

As a hard stem major, this class was a cakewalk where you don't really have to study or anything and just get an A (tests are open-book, open-note). Assignments are annoying but can finish in maybe 15-30 minutes. He really stresses that you shouldn't be taking this class for a grade and should be using it to better yourself and everything and kind of actively shames you into dropping the class if you're not their to truly take away things from the class? idk it felt a bit too serious in that regard which kind of made me enjoy the class less. Although I did take away a few things from the class, the lectures drag on and on. That being said, in an incredibly stressful quarter taking the time to reflect on myself and meditate, use less social media before bed, and other intevnetions genuinely probably did help my mental health quite a bit and I'll definitely try to continue doing them throughout my life. Also Hui, my TA, was amazing and I genuinely enjoyed coming to her sections to kind of reinforce what we were talking about in class! Would take again for the easiness more than the content.

Outstanding professor, absolutely manageable workload. Interesting class and the best option for those looking to fulfill life science GE. I highly recommend reading his book, it's cheap and helpful. His tests are open note and online, I struggled more on the midterm but got an A on the final. If you know the slides you WILL get an A on the final.

Please take this class. It is so interesting, manageable, fun, and helpful. I apply the things I learn in this class to my everyday life. Professor Korb is a gem and I want only good things to happen to him forever.

Very okay class. Everything we learned about felt obvious & straight forward. You can pass the class by Control F-ing your way through the powerpoints on the exams.

He's a terrible lecturer but a nice guy. If there's one thing he'll do, it's belabor a point. I could show up to class 20 minutes late and he'd somehow be on the second slide.

Don't choose Imri's discussion - it's unbearable.

Great life science GE for anyone, a far amount of work considering you have to complete interventions and log them almost every day. Work is easy and lectures are interesting if you really pay attention.

This class is awesome. I have learned so much stuff about the human brain that is actually applicable to my life. The lectures are kind of long and tedious, but not really vital to the tests, I just find them interesting. Discussion attendance matters but they usually end early and are pretty quick paced. Perfect workload, 10/10 class.

Bar none the best class I've taken at UCLA. It's the kind of class that has incredible real-world value, where if you put in effort into learning the material and techniques, you will literally improve your life. This class has no "gotchas," it's not designed to trick you, and you learn invaluable insights into the mind along the way. It's abundantly clear that Dr. Korb genuinely cares about his students, and his book, while not necessary, is a great read if the topics interest you. For all the qualms we can have about UCLA and the bureaucracy of the institution, this is the kind of class that makes you think how incredible of an opportunity it is to attend a place like this. If only every course was like this one...

If you want an easy GE grade, you can get that. If you want a life-changing college experience, you can get that too. 10/10 would recommend for everyone.

BEST CLASS AT UCLA. Easiest science GE ever. SOOOO interesting,, made me consider studying neuroscience. Dr. Korb is the best, so sweet, so funny, very smart. Overall best guy. You won't regret!!
