TAKEN DURING COVID**** I really liked Professor Knowlton’s module. It’s definitely more psych based and relies more on human data like fMRI rather than mouse models, but the phenomena we studied were really interesting. Her test in my opinion was very straightforward. You also got extra credit for taking a practice test before the test, which was helpful to know what kind of questions to look out for. Also the tests were multiple choice rather than short answer like the in person neuro core. As long as you study her lectures well, you should do fine on her test.

The WORST professor in the whole 101 Neuro series. Her lectures are garbage, her slides are garbage. There was no logical flow to her lectures or slides, she was all over the place and extremely hard to follow. Her test was extremely specific and she expected answers and explanations for things which she did not cover in class. Her entire module was psych based even though this was supposed to be hard science class. She gave no molecular pathway explanations for any of the phenomena she presented. She also only had 3 office hours total and cancelled the last one due to public holiday without rescheduling before the final. Overall an absolute waste of time and energy which really sucks since neuro majors are required to take this class.
