Class was pretty tough if you are not familiar with rap/hip-hop culture. Professor West's lectures are pretty clear and straightforward but expect much stricter grading on papers. Only non-A grade I've got so far 2 years into UCLA and really hurt my GPA
ENGCOMP 5W REVIEW
Highly recommend waiting for West, Steinberg, or Fallows. Definitely the top 3 professors for all English courses. Very light workload. Can re-write all essays and basically fix everything you did wrong -- ensures an A if you put in minimal effort
I really enjoyed taking this class with Dr. West and she really helped improve my writing. There were 3 essays and I got better each time. From B to B+ to what I was assuming an A or A+ (I didn't get the grades for this paper back). In the end I got an A, and I enjoyed this class.
If you're looking for an easy A, this is not the class. However, her class is entertaining. Our topic was hip-hop so it was definitely fun and something I could relate to. She likes to have discussions in class, which is cool because it opens up ideas and etc. for your essay. Also, there's a lot of peer review sessions and etc., so there's definitely that to help you out. The only thing I didn't like about her class is that she grades essays really strictly. It's almost impossible to receive an A on an essay.
Professor West is a great professor. She was very helpful and was a great person to talk to in and out of class. This class is all about rap music -- if you're into that, then you should definitely take this class.
The class breakdown consists of participation (25%), the first essay (20%), the second essay (25%), and the third essay (30%).
