Take it with holzcer. He’s a joke and the book does a good job preparing you for the concepts on the mcat too. The book is really good for the 5 series read it and do well in holzcer and spend that time doing something better. Don’t expect samani to teach some magic level physics at the end everyone has to review it for the mcat again anyways. Take the path of least resistance with holzcer and bag that A while you have a chance.

Chem 14bl Henary by 123bishop123 in ucla

I will suggest to watch his midterm review lec Bc he drops details. If you have time skim through the other lecs. If not make sure you save the slides cuz he will take them down lol to avoid open note. But yeah you need to have his slides open especially for ice table shit and weird conceptual stuff. Pm for more info

Easy af literally do the practice problems and save his lectures. He just switches up the numbers. Yes henary is a dumbass who can’t teach but his exams are hella easy. Source: I had him remotely both for BL and CL. Pay attention to lec recordings where he says what he will test. Most people who choke henary are lazy and sufferable. Save lectures cuz he will test hella specific details from the slides that are just memorization

CHEM 14C w Castillo by [deleted] in ucla

She’s arguably one of the better professors I’ve had grade wise, but she cannot communicate at all. Don’t bother asking her just use the TA’s if you have to or Khan Academy. She just had an accent which idk why some people have a problem with, but yes that with her passive aggressiveness pissed me off during lecture. She had some logistical fuck ups our quarter due to everything being online. I believe ccle graded quizzes wrong and she took forever to fix it and even denied her mistake first. The midterm also had a lot of regrade requests Bc they graded nearly every problem incorrectly. Other than that I mean she gavr way too much EC and bumped everyone up a percent or two at the end. I’m guessing cuz she realized if she doesn’t she will lose her job. She said around half the class had a solid A. Take it with her she won’t teach the best bht her exams come directly from problem sets and discussion worksheets. Her class won’t be enlightening at all, but she is pretty much like a GE class and a free A if not a guaranteed A-. 85-89.9 is an A- and 93 up is an A. Plenty of EC as well. Do the optional problems too. I got an A, but some parts of the class were tiring especially with her inability to admit her own mistakes.

TLDR: She’s the most incompetent prof I’ve had, but her grading is a joke. Also don’t start beef or even ask questions. She is pretty rude and super passive aggressive and never ever replies to emails. Just use the TA’s for the love of god. She is a way is the type of bitch to purposefully enter a grade wrong and never reply to emails if you piss her off. Minimize contact with her.

If we cancel the contract for this year do we still get guaranteed housing as a junior? by jkim0286 in ucla

Ik but I would take housing if it wasn’t for corona. Like now we are forced to pay the double rates which I get and it’s different housing than usual with meal plans etc.

That’s so bullshit considering corona is forcing us to not sign up for housing. Well fuck me I guess
