Spring 2025 - Dr. Quijada's module in 111B is all on the cardiovascular system. Her persona is wonderfully nice, cheerful, and easy to approach; however this was the hardest module in all of 111A and 111B. This may have just been the fact that her module was reduced to 2 weeks/4 lectures, forcing her to put dozens of slides per lecture. Slides were blocks of text that you had to memorize and she would talk so quickly through the entire lecture it was hard to catch what was happening. I usually don't take notes by annotating slides like most people do, but this module forced that lifestyle onto me - it was that much material. It's a grind but studying is no different from the rest of the core, just memorize and regurgitate come exam time.
