So for most of the classes here at U. C. I they're generally large classrooms. Um, you could expect around three hundred four hundred people, but there are smaller classes. If you're taking a writing class, it's very important to actually communicate with your instructor a lot more, you know? Have discussions have presentations. So those classrooms about twenty to twenty five students and there are a ton of teachers for that. There are also some classes in, uh, C s where, uh, there's thirty to fifty people for class, which is always great. Then there's discussions, uh, which basically lets you have a class of three hundred in your discussion. There might be fifty people, so it's a smaller place where you can communicate with the TA for the class on the materials and discuss what you're having issues with. You have any questions?
