Prof. Woolf is very boring in class and can be hard to follow. She does not explain very well what is on the powerpoint slides and tends to be a bit scatterbrained. However, if you study the textbook and put a lot of emphasis on studying the topics that come up on the power point slides, you should be fine for passing the midterm and final, that is all she gives. However, don't slack off on studying in her class because the midterm and final (both 50 m/c questions) is all you have for your grade, so messing up on one could bring your grade down a lot. Overall, if you can deal with a monotone professor, I recommend Psych 10 with Prof. Woolf.

Prof. Zaidel is an EXTREMELY easy professor & psych 10 is an EXTREMELY easy class. There is a lot of material to read, but if you j/read it thru once & understand it, you'll do fine on her exams. Her accent makes her difficult to understand at times, but it's endurable. You should go to lectures time-to-time b/c she does test you on things from her lectures that are not in the book readings, but she pretty much gives a huge signal as to what those items might be. It does get difficult to stay in there for the entire 2 hrs every 2x a week, but hey, that's the price for taking an easy GE class. Overall, I found this class to be very interesting in terms of the material learned, & Prof.Zaidel was quite humorous. I don't think she meant it to be, but some of the things she said were HILARIOUS! So, if you need an easy GE w/an easy professor, take this.
