I took SOC 181 A and got An A- and it wasn't easy. The distribution above is incorrect. Your grade will be calculated as: 15% 4 in class quizzes 30% mid-term 30% final discussion section 10% attendance, participation 10% Project presentation (present in front of class) 5% Leading a reading discussion (present in front of class) --------- 93% or above is A. If you missed TA dis sec, point will be taken out. If you missed in class quiz, can't make up. Btw, the distribution of the grade history is incorrect; it is not gonna be 56.2% A and 6.2% A+. It won't be skewed towards A and above. It will be more even. I asked some of my fellow students who happens to be very bright academically and active in discussion what their grades are? B, B- ...I was a little surprised. Good Class to take if you are interested to learn about China. But Don't take it thinking it is an easy A or workable A. I didn't

Spring 2016 - Professor C.K. Lee really knows and loves this subject. She presents fascinating sociological concepts and equips students with the paradigm to critically analyze and comprehend contemporary China! The workload is manageable and she is inviting during office hours. The material is not easy - so make sure to stay on top of your review and participate in sections!

Midterms & Finals are unreasonable, I study my ass off & put in so much time into this class and still end up with a B. The Professor know her stuffs but the TA is really unreasonable. He does not help you to learn the subjects, he even belittles you. He is really passionate and grades really hard, especially in the presentation & the 10 pages research paper. Basically, the class is run by the TA Chaoyo Chen NOT professor Lee. I feel really stupid for signing up for soc 181A and stay in it when 1/4 of my peers decided to drop. If you want to learn about Contemporary China find someone else. If you want to be the TA's pet, you're in luck.
