My introductory poli sci class this quarter was about 175-200. That was the biggest class I had. I had a lower division philosophy class that was about 75, and an introductory atmospheric science class that was also around 75-80.

Many of the large classes have discussion sections that you go to separate from the lecture. These usually have about 25 students in them and this is where you get to interact more personally with the TA and ask lots of questions and what not.

Professors and TAs are great with office hours provided you have something specific to ask them.
