IF YOU LIKE ENDLESS STRESS, THIS CLASS IS FOR YOU :)
Please do NOT take this class if you're not a science/south campus major. I'm a political science major and I thought this would be a relatively easy science GE but I was wrong. This class is pretty hard and the professor is really funny but really doesn't help with the material. The tests are extremely hard and he only gives 2 percentage points as extra credit. This class is designed for non-majors but the material taught in class definitely requires prior knowledge about neuroscience and biology. The material is also super dense.
I think most people in my class found the midterm pretty hard because the average was 66%. Overall I think this class is unnecessarily hard especially since it's only a GE!!
I think the professor is cool but the material is pretty difficult. I would definitely not recommend this class to anyone, especially north campus majors.

The professor is knowledgeable and a pretty good lecturer. If you enjoy learning about psychobio, you should find the lectures pretty interesting. There is essentially no work except some online quizzes/worksheets which take <10 minutes and are essentially graded for completion . There are two tests, which are 85% of your grade in total. The test content is 100% from the lectures and the lecture slides. While going to lecture isn't mandatory, there are questions on the tests that you won't be able to answer if you don't go to lecture (i.e. what is the condition from the video shown in class?). The tests itself are medium difficulty, but are easy A's if you devote ~10 hours before each test to memorize the slides. There is also in-class extra credit for 2% which he gives out a couple lectures before the midterm and final. If you want an easy A to fulfill your GE, there are probably better classes for that, but if you are interested in psychobio this class is fine.

If you are interested in neuroscience and how the brain works, this class is really interesting. Wong is a great professor who is always enthusiastic and as engaging as possible. I would definitely recommend this class, especially if you took AP Psych in high school. The only thing I would say is this class is definitely less psychology, and more biology and neuroscience so be aware of that going into it. There is basically no work besides a weekly online quiz that you can retake I think like 3 times to get a good score. For the midterm and final, just dedicate a few days to really memorizing the slides and material, and you should be able to easily get an A. As a north campus major, I really enjoyed this class and studying the material.

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN EASY NORTH CAMPUS GE! The class is about how our brain works, not about psychology:? Prof Wong is extremely boring and basically just repeats what his slides say without any proper explanation. He talks very fast, therefore it is very difficult to understand what he is saying. Although he gives a few random extra credit points depending if you showed up to class or not, the tests are hard due to the fact that he tests you on the most random details. Would not recommend this class to anyone!!

Overall, Wong is a great professor. He explains materials very clearly, and offers extra credit. However, he speaks too fast for most of the time, which sometimes make me confused about what he’s talking about. The workload is not heavy: there is only a set of study questions per week. Midterm and Final are ok if you memorize his slides and do not make simple mistakes. Recommend this class for a GE!

Some reviews say that this class was very hard, but the class was not that bad. It was hard if you did not know anything about neuroscience or biology (like I did). The final and midterm had very fair questions. You had homework due every Friday that you had to get 5/10 to get full credit. VERY IMPORTANT: go to class he gives extra credit PERCENTAGES that were very easy to get. I was supposed to have a C+ but with the extra credit it boosted me to a B-. moral of the story: GO TO CLASS (even if its boring)

I really enjoyed taking this course and the topics covered were pretty interesting overall. This course is tough in the fact that it is a lot of information and definitions that will take a bit of effort and time to memorize. But I enjoyed this professors teaching style and he clearly knows about the information that he is teaching. This class did not have a discussion which made clearing up some questions a bit difficult but overall I enjoyed taking this class, even as a non-psychology major.

Professor Wong is a great professor! This class requires very minimum work, only a set of ten questions every week which you have a week to complete and can retake as many times as you want. The textbook is not necessary, if you study his lecture slides you will do fine on the midterm and final. Both midterm and final exam are worth the same, but it can all be found in his slides and the TA provided study guides which really helped (labeling the slide and lecture in which the answer could be found in). It's honestly a very interesting class and I recommend going to the lectures (even though he posts the slides beforehand) because you get a better sense of the material and he offers extra credit once before the midterm and once before the final but you have to be present in the lecture to get it. Professor Wong was engaging and you really feel like you learned something new, would definitely take this class again with him!

I took this as a life science GE and found it pretty doable to get an A. The class was super interesting and I enjoyed going to lectures. Professor Wong is very knowledgeable on the subject and very passionate about psychology! He does talk a little fast, but will gladly go over something he said if you ask a clarifying question. He lectures from slides which he posts online, so if you miss a lecture, or are studying for the midterm/final it is very easy to access everything that will be on the test. But, I went to every lecture because I thought Wong was engaging (and he gives random extra credits throughout the quarter so show up to get a 3% grade boost!!)
The midterm and final are taken right out of the slides, so there is no need to get the textbook (if something is in the textbook but not the slides, you aren't tested on it). Our TA, Ryan, made a really helpful study guide for the midterm and final, which helped condense what was needed to study. I found that by filling out the study guide and memorizing that, I was able to answer pretty much every question on the midterm and final. Keep in mind that the class is all memorization, so if you don't put in the time to memorize the slides, the tests will be harder.
The workload is super light, just doing an online quiz every week that you can retake as many times as you want and only need to get half right to get full credit. (Study these questions because I found a few to be on the midterm!)
Basically, take this class if you find the subject interesting, and you don't mind putting in some hours to memorize slides!

I really recommend this class. The curve is amazing! He only allows 10% of people to get either D's or F's and because of that I got a C! I would have done sooooo much better in the class if I tried harder so don't let my grade scare you off. The only thing is like 45% of your grade is the midterm and 45% is final. The final is NOT cumulative so only material from after the midterm is on the final. The other 10/15% of the grade is these weekly quizzes that you literally only need to get half right to pass so he's REALLY lenient. The midterm and final are both 50 multiple choice questions. The material is EASY is fairly tricky and there's no discussion so it's easy to fall behind without noticing, but with a little weekly studying you are guaranteed a passing grade.
