Yeates made this class incredibly easy during the COVID-19 pandemic. All you had to do to get an A was attend discussion and do the homework assignment every week. You get most of the homework answers during your discussion section and if not, the TAs give you homework answers during office hours. This was a good and bad thing; good because it was low stress, bad because it meant you really didn't have to learn anything. I stopped keeping up with this class after week 3 when things started to pick up the pace in my other classes (AHEM Nakamoto's CHEM 154) and never caught back up to speed. So yes, I got an A in this class for putting in the work, but I barely touched the textbook, didn't watch the lectures, and put in the minimum amount of time on the homework assignments which means I didn't learn much. I know that this will hurt me down the line so I might go back and learn everything now that I've graduated and have time haha
