The class was decent. The lecture was interesting and one could tell that the professor was passionate in her teachings. The professor was nice and would be more than willing to answer any questions you ask and officer hours was also okay. There is a midterm and final exam with no notes and there is also no texts required. She would also upload slides and study guides, so they were helpful as well. Overall, I had an okay experience.
I absolutely loved having Dr. Schorn for Psych 85. She's a fairly new professor that recently completed her PhD at UCLA, but she was awesome. The midterm and final were both super fair and straightforward. They were both online, due to the Palestine protests/TA strike. There is a LOT of content covered in each lecture; I had almost 20 pages of notes from just the first day. I made sure to take very detailed notes during lecture, and then review my notes from each lecture within 2 days of the lecture happening. This proved to be a successful strategy (for context I got a 57/60 on the midterm, and 55/60 on the final). Dr. Schorn was always super willing to answer questions after lecture and in office hours (though I didn't go to the latter). She did her undergrad at Princeton and has done work with NASA, etc. so I would definitely go to OH and talk to her about stuff if I took her class again. Overall, would highly recommend her Psych 85 class!!
Professor Schorn is amazing and super knowledgable on the topic! Her lectures are super engaging and she always helped up to understand the topics more by playing videos or doing an in-class experiment. That being said, it is a lot of content and she goes super fast in class, and the two exams are pretty hard. But, our exams got moved online because of protests, so I'm not sure if she changed them. The midterm and final were worth 30% each towards the final grade. The rest was made up of completion points for a few writing assignments and a few quizzes that were online. We also got extra credit that could bump our grades by 3%. I think as long as you did the readings, extra credit, and did well on the quizzes you should get an A. Super interesting class and I would definitely recommend anyone to take it with Dr. Schorn!
