Spring 2019 - Class depends completely on your TA. Mine was helpful in terms of discussion but graded everything pretty hard. Midterm and final are a lot of writing, but mainly focus on identifying the buildings discussed. Selling the textbook required for this class. Good shape. Also have a couple study guides included if you'd like them. Text me at **********
