Pretty easy class for STEM majors. The exams are easier than the homework, and the concepts themselves are not hard either.

Levy is an excellent professor and if you care to do well in this class it is perfectly doable. The most important thing is attending lecture as he gives example problems within the Logic 2010 software during lecture which makes the problem sets very doable. If you are ever having difficulty with problems, Levy also has plenty of office hours with himself, the TA, or the various tutors for the course. Overall I would definitely take this course again and recommend it if you need the requirement.

Professor Levy is the BEST!! What I've found for this class is you either love it and it comes really easily, or you hate it and it just doesn't click. Hopefully it clicks for you!! Professor Levy is so kind, made himself so available to students during office hours, and sends the best, funny emails. My one recommendation if you want to succeed is just practice practice practice. Do as many problems as you can on Logic 2010, and it will start to come easy! Final is way easier than midterms, and lots of tutors available to help if you need it. Definitely had to put some work in but loved this class!

I love professor Levy, don't get me wrong. But this class is quite hard. The material itself is hard to understand but even when you get the hand of it, or so you think it is confusing. My recommendation is go to the office hours!! Overall, I love him as a person, but do not take this class as a GE.

Prof Levy is an awesome professor. My section was two 2 hour lectures per week and he was sensitive to the fact we start to glaze over at the end. He does numerous examples and answers questions very kindly even if he's already stated the reasons prior. Bring your laptop to class and follow along with the problems. Logic 2010 is a little old looking but I genuinely enjoyed doing problems. If you are a pure math major, I highly (highly) recommend taking this because you will be able to understand the structure of a proof so much better by learning to do a "derivation" (essentially a proof). Homeworks are manageable (not too much or too little). He came very prepared to lecture with good structure to the presentations.

Highly recommend taking this class! You will learn so much with not too much effort.

Literally my favorite professor I have had at UCLA. He makes himself beyond accessible to all students, the TA for the course (Tristen) is awesome and managed every section themself, 10/10.

While it is by not an easy-A class, if you go to lecture and utilize the resources given to you, the entire teaching staff really wants you to succeed, and you inevitably will.

The homework is always applicable, the lectures are always important, and you don't need to open the textbook the entire quarter.

Professor Levy is the sweetest person - funny, caring, and a wears cute lil sweaters. His lectures are to the point, his slides are clear, and so much more. This class is so much fun if you like puzzles (it's basically what all of Logic is).

10/10 would recommend.

I really enjoyed this class. As a humanities and social science double major, it was unlike any other class I've taken at UCLA but the challenge was very satisfying. Professor Levy is very passionate about teaching and there are a lot of resources available to help students succeed in the course. The TA, Seungtaek, was excellent as well. This course didn't fulfill any requirements for me, but I think overall it was less work for me than most of my other classes. There are two mandatory homework assignments each week, two midterms, and a final. The textbook is free and linked on the class site. It's helpful for review but I found attending lecture and the discussion section to be essential to my understanding of the material. I found doing the homework to actually be quite enjoyable. It's a lot like solving puzzles, especially derivations. This was probably one of my favorite classes I've taken at UCLA.

Took this class to fulfill my final pre-req requirement for being a philosophy major. Overall, it was not that bad for me considering the fact that I could get most of what we were learning even though I would not attend lectures. Attendance is not mandatory for either lecture or discussion section, but it is highly recommended by Levy to do so. You learn about validity, symbolizations (phrasing of the symbolization sentences can be hella confusing), derivations (just tedious b/c a lot of rules to use but will become easier when you remember them), truth tables (the easiest section), and invalidities (most confusing).

You're graded on the following: your homework that's due before the next class, two midterms, and a final. Homework is doable, I definitely recommend joining the GroupMe chat for the class since most people help each other out there. The midterms are okay, you get the entire lecture session to do them, make sure your laptop is charged and that it can run Logic 2010 properly, it can crash sometimes. You learn about invalidities by like the last weeks of this quarter, but there's only two questions about them on the final. Our TA (Seungtaek) for this quarter was helpful and had useful handouts that he would pass out during discussion sections and had a google drive for which was nice.

It definitely is more of a math class than a typical "philosophy" one where you mainly discuss and analyze readings. I'm not sure why some people feel a bit like they were lied to about the course, and I think most of the complaints come from the Covid/Zoom era so I guess that didn't go well. I will say Levy is super nice and friendly, but the way he lectures can be confusing especially with his quirky powerpoints. He does not record his lectures but he does share his powerpoints; however, these are difficult to follow if you weren't there for lecture. If you're really struggling, the tutors are usually available (either in-person or over zoom), but some tutors are better than others. I would say it's a fast pace class, but if you put in the effort to try to understand the content it is doable. I will warn you that you'll probably get confused about invalidities and not feel confident about symbolizations so try your best to figure it out.

LEVY SLAYS - if you were good at math in high school or are interested in cognitive science and/or enjoy syntax/linguistics, PLEASE take this class. Some people struggle w logic, while with other people, logic comes really easy to them. So just be prepared for learning a new symbolic language that has a similar logic to math problems but applies this logic through the lens of sentence structures in English. It may be intimidating at first but Levy is a really sweet, kind, and knowledgable professor. Many tutoring sessions held out of class (dont need to go to them but they do help if you have questions!) and open note midterms and finals! Highly recommend taking this w Levy :)))

This guy rules. Favorite class so far at UCLA.
