So let me start by saying, I took this class a GE and I really though it was gonna be like an easy GE. This class is on the tougher side and the way to do well on the tests is by attending every lecture and legit writing down everything she says. Some of the questions on the midterm and final are very specific. The labs are very easy and if you can take it with Frida, she is the best. Here is the breakdown for the class.
Labs 20%
Midterm 1: 35%
Final: 35%
Project: 10%
I got a 100% on the labs, 80%, 98% on the project, 80% on the midterm and 96% on the final. The final is also significantly easier than the midterm. The class was super interesting and if you plan on taking this class the best way to do well is to study notes. She also gave an extra credit assignment that saved everyone's grade too. Good thing to know for the Midterm it covered weeks 1-4, and week 5 was the midterm. The final covered only week 6-9 where and week 10 was the final with like 1-2 questions from the midterm. Overall the professor is very engaging and it is a good class. I recommend just study and you will do good.

Fantastic Professor, but Be Ready for the Workload!
I absolutely loved this Geography class! The professor made every lecture so engaging and fun, which is impressive for an 8 a.m. class—I was never sleepy during her lectures. Her explanations were clear and logical, and I learned so much about animals. The visuals she used were stunning and really brought the material to life.
That said, the workload can be a bit heavy. There’s a lot to review for exams, and the story map project requires quite a bit of effort. However, she gives plenty of time to prepare and is very organized about it. If you’re willing to put in the work, this class is incredibly rewarding. I highly recommend her if you want an engaging professor who makes learning enjoyable!
