writing this during my discussion class right now with Gibbs because with all due respect this is the worst GE I've taken at UCLA. the lecture slides' audio has TONS of background noise that drown out the professor's voice, but even if audio were clear the complex concepts of this class are glossed over and understated. The exam asked like 5 vague, broad questions that we needed to answer in about 200 words, and when it was graded on gradescope we got points off for things like "did not say that Planet X did Y". It was ridiculous. Although I've tried to ask questions to get deeper understanding, the TA does not know how to answer adequately most of the time. There ARE EASIER GEs that you should take. AVOID this one. Too much work than it is worth. You won't learn much at all.

This class was easy enough but, I had more trouble with the tests than understanding the information... if that makes sense. Lectures were easy enough to understand and discussions were very helpful but when it came to the exams I felt they were harder and included things we didn't learn directly in class.

Super sweet guy. I honestly don't recommend going to all the lectures because the slides are posted online and he doesn't cover a lot on the tests. GO TO DISCUSSION! It's optional but will basically teach you everything you need for the tests. An easy GE
