What students say

Math

This class is pretty manageable if you put in a little work. Weekly quizzes are easy and scoring 80%+ guarantees at least a B, no matter what you get on exams. You get free retakes too. If you've taken Calc AB/BC, you'll be fine. The professor goes slowly through basics like partial derivatives and integration by parts. Office hours with the professor and TAs are super helpful. Overall, a solid Berkeley class that requires effort but pays off.

I lived in a building where the owner also lived, and we were always terrified of getting kicked out. The apartment was crammed with furniture the owner wouldn't let us remove, leaving no space beyond the five bedrooms and one bathroom. Just another crazy story of renting in Berkeley!
