This class is not nearly as hard as others make it out to be. The lecturers hand out exactly what they want out of you on a silver platter during the review sessions.

It consists of 2 lectures and 1 workshop per week. Review sessions are practically a mini exam. Workshop is useless, and the practice questions can be vague.

Engaging.

Make flashcards.

This class is REALLY HARD. BRUTAL. Class averages on exams BARELY EXCEED 70. Ph.D. level exams. Beal said herself, most students don't get As

Not unless you are going to med school

I really liked Beal as a lecturer. Her slides were well-organized and she made most of the topics interesting. She's very enthusiastic and always excited to teach. Great professor, terrible dept.

Do not take it unless you absolutely need to for med/vet school
