Galic was one of the best professors I've had at UCLA. He really put in the effort to get to know each and every one of his students names. Even though Immunology is a super hard class, he makes the class enjoyable and cracks jokes every now and then. His office hours really do help because he'll go more in depth on each slide.

Though immunology is one of the hardest science upper divs I've taken, Galic is an awesome professor and I would gladly take it with him again. He talks quickly and has an accent, but he'll go over something more slowly when asked, plus the lectures are audiocasted. He co-taught with Dr. Zack and they complement each other super well, and are also hilarious together. The homeworks are very challenging but are graded on effort, not accuracy, and they help prepare you for the tests. The tests are open-note but still study as if they weren't, and just use the notes to double-check tiny details. You won't have enough time to read your notes as if you're learning the material for the first time during an exam. Overall Galic and Zack took a really tough subject and made it super interesting and enjoyable, so i would recommend taking this class with them.

Dr. Galic is one of my favorite professors. This class lives up to being known as the hardest class for MIMG majors, yet I found it the most rewarding. Put in the work, but also, learn how to properly study and you'll do well. My TA was Emily and she was amazing. Dr. Zack is also very knowledgable, so definitely go to office hours

Very fun but very hard class. The tests are based on problem solving which means you really have to know what you’re talking about, but I think this is better than courses that force you to memorize! Attending the discussions are crucial, but they are led by amazing TAs that really care about your understanding. The discussions truly prepare you for the exams and that was amazing

Dr. Galic is hilarious and kind, as well as being an incredible professor. His lectures are funny and engaging and often prompt curiosity in immunology. Make sure to attend OH with him; he's fantastic at explaining things and will often hint on what types of problems might make their way onto the exams. He even remembered me after the quarter ended! Overall, 10/10.

Regarding the class itself, it's pretty difficult. Even though the exams are open note, you need a REALLY good conceptual understanding of immunology to do well on them. My study habits were to review all the lectures and ensure that I knew all of the cellular interactions+key molecular components of them. I wrote down all of the high impact stuff on a cheat sheet. Having a binder full of notes for the exams helps, but don't be fooled--you need to study like it's a closed note class. Going over the problem sets is a good idea since they're just old exam questions. Added bonus: no busy work in this class! Overall, this class was difficult and incredibly rewarding, without micromanagement from the profs.
