Fall 2024 - This class is definitely the hardest class I've ever taken at UCLA. It takes a lot to succeed but once you get past this course, the rest of Phy Sci will be a breeze. Dr. Friscia leads the muscles portion of the course, which is the second half. He's quite funny, very lively, and an overall great teacher. People say that Friscia's half is the easier half, and I would agree because 95% of your success is based on memorization. His half is also much cooler for the fact that you get to touch the cadavers and present the muscles to your peers. Get ready for three-hour labs on top of two-hour lectures on top of two-hour discussions every week. Quizzes literally every week to always keep you on your toes and a unit's worth of content in a week. It's awesome and super challenging at the same time. The key to success is just being willing to memorize everything you've been given.

Fall 2019 - I am coming back from just finishing PhySci 111B... and I am very very happy I stayed a PhySci major despite all the negative things Ive heard. YES, it is hard. YES, I did question my abilities like crazy. But I and many other people did this! You can too. Dont let anyone tell you what you should or shouldnt do. If you want to be PhySci, BE PHYSCI!!! 107 was the best class Ive taken so far and I would do the series all over again if that meant choosing phy sci again. Good luck incoming juniors!
