Jyana Browne JAPN445 Expecting a B- Anonymous 05/13/2022	So some of you guys might be shocked in why such a low grade, but trust me on this, the grade distribution for this specific class wasn't really the best. So heres a breakdown of my experience: In-Class Discussions: Amazing! Very interesting topics and very understanding of all views. Quizzes: Ctrl F and you're fine, just make sure you do the Perusall's Close/Article Analysis: So extra and tedious.... The grading rubric is very ambiguous based on her opinion rather than clarity and quantity of your analysis. This will most likely be where you lose a lot of points Perusall's: Kind of interesting (For me) but very long. Depends on how much interest and patience you have on specific subjects. Overall if you have to take a culture class, obviously go for it, but be warned, getting an B- to A- you can easily get it without too much work, but A and up is pretty difficult. I realized class tends to be sugar coated.....ALOT Also keep aware that half the class doesn't pay attention/doesn't talk while the other half won't stop talking. So class time might feel like heaven or hell depending on how fun and involved the topics and students are.
