Overall, Dr. Dominguez's neuroscience class was very easy and enjoyable. Her lectures were easy to understand and covered all the readings so I didn't even buy the book (although there is a free version out there if you want). For participation the iClicker and in-class assignments are graded on accuracy but the lowest ones get dropped. The quizzes are also super easy, and for the final project you just needed to create a scientific poster of a proposed neuroscience experiment. There were three all-multiple choice exams in the class but the lowest one gets dropped so it wasn't that hard. There was no discussion section but she was always available to be reached. Overall, if you've ever taken AP psych this class will be easy for you and I highly recommend taking it!

Dr. Domínguez is very knowledgeable in neuroscience. She always made the class very interesting and definitely knows how to teach a class. Many people did well in this class because of how well she teaches the content. Attendance was mandatory and she enforced this through iClicker. But, she has very lenient drop policies, she makes it so that you will do well in this class. The workload was not very much, as long as you show up to class, it is easy to do well. The exams were crafted well and not in ways to trick students. I would definitely take her class again.
