I would recommend this class to others if they are truly willing to take their time with this class. I was usually average or slightly below average on all the assignments/tests for this class, but it is tough to be at the average. This is not an easy A. If you are lucky you will get an A-, but most likely you will get some type of B. I did not want to be stressed out trying to get an A/A- for this class so I took P/NP. I recommend anyone reading this to take it for a letter grade if you are ok with the probable possibility of getting anything from a B- to a B+.
The class material was interesting and useful. Prof Guerin's lectures were engaging, even over Zoom. The pace/workload is light, with live lectures and a short HW due every 2 weeks. Overall a great lecturer and solid class.
She's rather entertaining. If you don't go to class, you won't get an A. Look over homework questions and course readers - that should be enough to do average on everything. I stopped going to class after midterms and never opened the book, just glanced over the course reader before the final and it was enough to score right about the median on the final.
Interesting material and engaging professor. She puts in a lot of details to her course in order to make it engaging. This course mostly requires memorizing the material covered in her lectures and videos. One week there is a live-recorded lecture and the next its videos, which allows students to catch up on studying. Reading the book is not necessary since her course packet is very detailed but its interesting to read, especially if you're pre-law.
I was going to give Prof. Guerin a great review because I heavily enjoyed her class, but then she emailed me a week after grades were posted informing me that my grade had been changed from an A- to a B+ because of an "excel error" that the grader, Wanzhen Zhou, made. This is complete bullshit that they can do this. They taught us in class that a UNILATERAL mistake means the party making the mistake is still held accountable, but they go back on this now. Screw you Jane, I had respect and appreciation for you but no longer now.
FUCK OFF
The grade for this class is 30% assignments (5 in total), 25% midterm, and 45% cumulative final. The class is in person basically every other week for 2 hours and 50 minutes. After reading the reviews for this class, I thought it would be my easiest class, but honestly, I found it to be my hardest, which I think is because I am just not good at applying laws, which is all this class is. You cannot simply memorize the laws; you have to know how to apply them to situations she gives you, which I found very difficult when the situations had many details. The exams are mostly multiple choice, but also have some true/false. The midterm had one open response, and the final had two. Although I think Guerin is a decent lecturer, I still found the exams to be difficult. I would recommend studying all homework questions and examples given in the lecture. She did repeat some on the final, which were basically free questions if you studied those questions. She also repeated some questions on the final that were from the midterm. The median on the midterm was 77%. There was no average or grades posted for the final exam, so I am not sure what scores were on this since there were only final grades posted on Myucla. Overall, if you are looking for a super easy class, I am not sure I would recommend this class. But I also think it depends on whether you are good at classes that are not simply about memorization.
I strongly recommend taking MGMT 108 with Professor Guerin!
Professor Guerin is an awesome lecturer, and attending her lectures was truly a highlight of my quarter. She was truly committed to helping us understand and apply the law, and she is very kind, funny, and friendly. She also incorporates exciting examples from her legal tenure, making the classroom feel like real-life Suits!
Her class covers important legal concepts (e.g., contracts, employment, bankruptcy) that are deeply relevant to aspiring lawyers and non-lawyers alike. There are not many classes you take in college that you will actually apply; however, you will use what you learn in this class in the real world.
Grading Weight:
- Assignments (30%): Throughout the quarter, she assigns five assignments which are short-answer questions where you apply legal principles to real-life scenarios. These assignments are fairly straightforward and took me between 1-1.5 hours each.
- Midterm Exam (25%): The midterm exam is one hour long (more than enough time); it is primarily multiple-choice questions with a couple of short-answer questions.
- Final Exam (45%): The final exam is two hours long (again, more than enough time); the structure is very similar to that of the midterm. About 60-70% of the content is from the post-midterm lectures (emphasis on employment, bankruptcy, and business entities). Also, she uses a lot of questions on the midterm (verbatim).
- Lectures: She holds a three-hour lecture once every two weeks. Attendance is not mandatory, and she does record and post her lectures on BruinLearn. That said, I strongly recommend that you attend her lectures. They are extremely interesting!
In order to do well in this class, you need to do two things:
1. Understand the legal principles well. Don't try to memorize rules; instead, apply common sense and think about how rules should be from a good faith and public policy angle. When you think about it this way, you will do a much better job absorbing the law. Use flashcards, spaced repetition, and AI-generated quiz questions for this.
2. Apply the law well. Professor Guerin places emphasis on not just knowing the law but being able to apply it in real-world scenarios. You will build your legal reasoning skills most by attending lecture and completing your assignments. Use AI-generated short-answer questions (modeled after the assignments) for this.
She tests on the lecture content. You can read from the textbook and course reader to gain additional clarification, but she doesn't test anything she doesn't cover in lecture.
Class was very interesting and useful. Workload was light and exams were not difficult. However, the class grade was very competitive, easy pass but hard to get A. Above mean/median is not enough, you probably have to get upper quartile to be A
Prof. Guerin is very passionate about business law and it makes the class very engaging and fun. She has years of experience so lectures are full of fun anecdotes from her own work. The class itself is very useful in the real world and honestly pretty fun to learn about. Weekly homework problems where you write short answers for scenarios using concepts from class. One midterm and a final. Both are pretty tough, but manageable if you devote some time to them and figure out the logical steps to apply the laws. Some questions feel like trick questions so be sure to read them all very carefully. Mostly multiple choice with a couple fill in the blank and one short response. Overall, a very interesting class, and would recommend it to anyone, just be prepared for a tougher-than-expected midterm.
