<p>Are they curved?</p>

<p>Also I'm an incoming freshman, and on the course listings for the summer for freshman that they had on the site, they had Psych 166AC under it. I didn't realize it was upper division and now I'm in a class with a bunch of psych majors. So I'm thinking if the class is curved, I'm ****ed. But according to courserank a ton of people get A's. Does anyone have experience with this class or summer classes?</p>

<p>Some classes are curved up. I just took one.</p>

<p>A curve isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Oftentimes it can be a good thing, like in organic chemistry. Having a curve in that class prevents nearly everybody from failing.</p>

<p>You should ask your professor how the grading works. Not all classes are curved.</p>
