Fall 2024 - Genuinely the worst class I have taken at UCLA and I could not recommend this professor less! The class is hard, not because of the material but because of the professor. She was constantly changing her mind on important information but would not send an announcement, she would tell the class verbally or even sometimes only tell it to one student that asked after class.
