Fall 2017 - This class was the worst class I have taken at UCLA. I know people who have taken the class from another professor and loved it, but DO NOT take this class with Vazquez. She doesn't post her slides, is the most boring lecturer ever, and creates horribly unorganized and hard tests. There's no way of knowing what will be on her exams. There's up to two hours of reading a night, and if you miss a reading you will be completely lost. The weekly quizzes in discussion were doable, but you have to do the readings thoroughly and memorize all the material. Besides weekly quizzes, there was a midterm, final, and final paper (7 pages I believe). I thought this would be an interesting class, but it was terrible and is the only B I've gotten at UCLA, and I'm a Physiology major (pre-med).
