This is a great class to take if you're interested in healthcare, research, or bioethics. The subject matter is really interesting but lectures can get tedious because they are long and there is a lot of information. This class is not an easy GE, you do have to work for your grade. With that said it's not necessarily a very difficult class either, you get what you put in. The majority of the class is based on your exam grades so it's important to do well on those. The midterms and finals consist of multiple choice, free response, and essay. They give you the essay prompt beforehand so that you have time to prepare for it and go to office hours for feedback before the exam. Professor Gallagher helps her students out and is a fair professor.
