    Quarter Taken: Fall 2023 In-Person
    Grade: A

    Like most of the 7 series, a lot of the concepts we went over were pretty clearly covered and easy to understand. As long as you keep up with all the busy work, it's not hard to get a good grade in the class. I would definitely take the time to go through practice exams and practice PEQs like they're the real thing, because the hardest thing about the class is just how they word test questions.
