This is by far my favorite class I've taken at UCLA. Dr. Friscia is awesome and although it's a lot of material (o/i/a of all muscles from 107 + blood supply and innervation) it's totally worth it. Friscia is very reasonable with grades, but to get an A you should memorize everything, take advantage of the open labs, and start studying from day 1 to not fall behind. Dissecting cadaver limbs as an undergraduate is almost unheard of so if you get the chance to take this class definitely do!! It was such a rewarding experience and is great preparation for anyone interested in medical school.

This was by far the most fun yet most difficult class Ive ever taken at UCLA. A group of 3 students get a part of a cadaver and a portion of your grades goes to how well you clean and dissect the cadaver. This class is disgusting and be prepared to dissect the bodies. There is a quiz at the beginning of each lab, and is based off of the lab manual which is pretty dense. The class is divided by lower limb unit and upper limb unit. And each unit has a written exam and a practical. This class is incredibly dense, you will need to memorize all the muscles(including their innervation and actions), all the nerves, blood vessels( artery and veins), and bones. Imagine 107 but 10x harder. BUT getting an A is doable and has been the most rewarding class Ive ever taken at UCLA.

Lots to learn. Many muscles. Many nerves and vessels. Very helpful for pre-health majors. Can get messy. Having wet wipes on hand can be helpful. Fun time. Happy time. Don't slack on reviewing those slides!
