Chill SOCSCI 14 lecturer, heavy weekly readings
positive
- Retake?Yes
- WorkloadHeavy
sir rikki is really cool !!! i didn't really have any problems with sir rikki when i took socsci 14. he's a great lecturer, he talks about the topics he brings up in interesting ways, he has a strong memory for his students, and he was really chill while knowing when to be serious and put his foot down. the only thing that i would bring up is that the courseload is kinda heavy, since basically every week you have a new reading to discuss. he also likes to cold call-ish people for recitation (i say ish because he does ask if you can recite beforehand iirc), so it adds additional pressure there to know what it is you're going to be reciting about. the biggest thing to take note of with regards to assessments is that he's going to be moving away from take home papers this year, since he noticed that a lot of students were using ai daw in the year i took him. you'll have a lot more onsite quizzes because of that, which means im not sure how groupwork related stuff is going to work since what we did was takehome papers by group for most of the sem. tldr: great fun prof, works will mostly be onsite because ai sucks, get good groupmates and things will be fine.more

Interesting cases, but grades drop as a surprise
positive
- 4.0 attainableYes
agree, seatmate and groupmate!! HAHA and to add lang din, sir is a lawyer kaya i think compared to other profs/classes, yung naiba samin ay yung cases for some of our readings which i personally found very interesting as a soss student:)) kaso lang, downside is, he wasn't able to return/grade any of our assessments at all lol bulaga na lang lahat paglabas ng grades tho we did check one multiple choice quiz right after taking it. this might be a concern if sobrang anxious ka na u want to gauge at the start kung paano ba style/standards ng prof mo, but tbh he doesn't grade low naman as long as you answer his questions succinctly. and as mentioned, given the change in how he'll be adding more onsite assessments/essays, need mo talaga mag-effort para maka-A. if ever naman feel mo na u did bad in one req, puwede ka makabawi sa mga bonus na binibigay niya where u have to attend an event and write a paper about it with applications of the lessons u've covered so far in class. his was the kind of saturday class u'd be looking forward to attending instead of dreading!more
