I really liked Dr. K. She was really nice, understanding, knowledgable, and overall a great professor. It's very clear that she's passionate about teaching and cares a lot about her students. It's about the same structure as 7A (presumably across the entire 7 series but I didn't take 7B as it's not required for my major) with clickers, launchpad, discussion worksheets, exams on ccle, etc. It's graded on a straight scale and based on a set number of points.

The exams were pretty hard though. There's a lot of tricky questions that you have to read over and over again. One word can change the context of the entire question so you can't make assumptions. If you do, that's an indicator that you have to reevaluate the question. Definitely try to use the entire amount of time allotted, even if you finish early. Check your answers. It can be real frustrating lol. It's definitely harder than 7A imo. Thankfully I was doing this class and another physio class at the same time so I got to see similar concepts multiple times which probably helped out a lot. Out of the things given directly from this class (this doesn't include the problem solving sessions), discussion worksheets and clickers were the most helpful resources when studying the exams.
The group phase of the midterm exams are slightly different from 7A. There's 2 parts: an untimed group "consensus" with only a couple questions to do and a timed 15 - 20min phase of MCQs and fill-in-the-blanks.

Discussion, clickers, launchpad, etc are pretty standard. Launchpad is time consuming as usual but necessary to understand things in lecture. Multiple extra credit opportunities were offered (roughly 15 pts worth?).

The class is definitely doable but not easy. You have to be cautious on wording and make sure you understand every diagram shown.

Professor Khankan was great! She is extremely clear and understanding of her students. The exams in this class are exactly the same as 7AB, but there was an additional short answer part for the online course. The class is reversed as usual, which I am just not a fan of. This class was definitely better than 7AB though.

*Took LS3*

I loved Dr. Khankan! She was a very good lecturer and is also very funny. Although I didn't do as well as I would've liked because her tests are a little challenging, I would definitely recommend her to others.

Dr. Khankan is a pretty good lecturer. She's engaging and pretty funny. The material of LS3 was definitely less intense than LS2, but wow her tests were tricky. Know all the material so well you think you're over prepared. The true false questions can really get you. They'll often rely on one specific fact. That specific fact will make you get it wrong, even though you knew the overarching themes and a lot of other details. The test averages were always in the 70s. That being said, if I had the choice to go back and take this class with her again I would. The class wasn't bad and I think she ended up curving a few percent at the end. Also there are a bunch of free points from clickers and discussion section. The discussion sections had quizzes starting mid quarter, but I found them to not be hard and usually got 100%. Just review her slides and really stay on top of it.

I personally loved LS2 with Professor Khankan. The LS series has a reputation of being highly competitive and weeding out students interested in pursuing a career in healthcare, but Professor Khankan made her grading scheme on a point scale so that you did not have to worry about doing well relative to other people. I think this made me feel a lot more comfortable asking questions and collaborating with other people, which is really important in memorization-heavy classes. Her class wasn't podcasted during the summer so I ended up recording her lectures on my phone and listening back to parts of the lecture that I was confused on. She's a good lecturer--articulates the material clearly and concisely, and humors students (which is good because the material can get dense and you end up losing focus sometimes). The LS series is a difficult one in general, so if you're expecting not to put a lot of effort into the class it's not fair to complain that the course itself was at fault.

Professor Rana is an excellent professor. Her lectures are funny and clear. She does not try to trick you or confuse you. She is so helpful and open outside of class. The material it's hard alone, but Professor khankan does an amazing job making it more understandable. She does bring some concept questions but that's just to make you a better student in the subject. What I could recall from her midterms, it had MC , fill in the blank, and short response. You will have to put in some work and study because there is a lot of material. It's not easy but it's doable. And very interesting with a Dr. Khankan.
Labs are fun too, real cadavers. I had a great TA , Gaby. I'm not sure if she'll TA for this lower div again but I know she TAs for other upper div physci classes and will suggest picking her.

Overall both these ladies know their stuff, are very sweet, very helpful. I would highly recommend them!

I think this was her first quarter teaching the class and it was literally all over the place. I felt bad for her because you could tell she was trying, but the homework never correlated with lecture and sometimes discussions didn't even match up. So much busy work on launchpad and I just generally hated this class and am actually changing my major as a result. The tests were insanely difficult. I think it's the hardest class I've taken so far at UCLA. I got a C on every exam, but did all the launchpad and and got all the participation points and ended up with a B. I think she could be a good professor for this class if it was more structured and organized.

I took LS 3 with her.
Professor Khankan is a very kind person but don't be fooled. While her grading scheme is very generous (almost 50% of your grade is busywork) the simulations you had to do almost every week on launchpad were really difficult and it was easy to lose points there. The reading and video quizzes weren't too bad as you were able to pause the time limit and take all the time to find the answers online. She dropped your two lowest clicker days so I guess clickers points weren't too bad. Although the first 5 weeks of discussion everyone got full points, starting week 6 she suddenly threw in discussion quizzes 5 questions each week in which the questions sometimes were really specific and it was easy to lose a point because of that. Lastly, her tests had questions that were some of the trickiest I've seen in any multiple choice test so far and you had to really know the material to get a good grade. Because of her tests, her class is extremely difficult to get an A in. Overall, while I liked her lectures, she wasn't the best professor.

FOR LS7C: khankhan was super nice and seemed very informed on the material. She explained stuff pretty well at lectures 7 I'd advice to take some notes b/c the slides don't cover everything. Luckily this class is bruincasted in case you miss something. But even with her great teaching, the 7 series is still pretty new. So i felt like the tests weren't up to the same level as her teaching. Only b/c the tests are pure true/false and they are really set up to trick you. I can't blame her though b/c the teachers seem to be learing how to teach better within the 7 series. Just go to office hours and pay attention in lecture.

Amazing teacher and good class if you put in the work. Highly recommend going to office hours and asking questions about what muscles are working with what types of movement, and going over general anatomy in the second half of the course. She gave us sheets on what muscles do what movement and you are expected to memorize and understand that for the practicals as well. For the first half of the course, you will be going over all the body systems, which in my opinion, was really difficult. Her tests are hard and I recommend studying in groups and explaining to someone the exact steps each system goes through, where they get their blood supply, etc. Overall, I really enjoyed Professor Khankan and good luck in the course!
