    Quarter Taken: Fall 2023 In-Person
    Grade: A+

    I learned so much from Professor Ng. This has been my favorite class in all of my years at UCLA. The final is optional and she gives a full sheet cheat sheet for both the second midterm and optional final.

    Quarter Taken: Fall 2023 In-Person
    Grade: A+

    I enjoyed the content of the course, but a lot of the lecture slides were just filled with information which made it hard to keep up at times. There are 2 midterms and an optional cumulative final that can be used to drop the grade of one of the midterms. Readings are necessary to succeed in the class.
