Comment:
Prof Smale, while very interested in her subject, is very very boring. Her TA and GA are great though and the review sessions are helpful. But that being said she will talk about things that I was very interested in, like Schizophrenia, and it would be like an 80 minute lecture on methods of paint drying.

Comment:
Ughhhhh, this woman. Boring, power points are terrible, class is long. I was so excited to take a neuroscience class but my experience was terrible. Class averages for exams are typically in the low 60's to mid 70's and exams are hard. Stay far away

Extremely difficult quizzes and study guides are rare and not much help. Powerpoint is not organized well and her TAs do most of the work anyways. Very boring to listen to and a lot of memorization.

Terrible. Very boring, never went to class. Power Points are unprofessional and nonsensical. Study guides were crazy helpful, but only got them for exams, not quizzes.
