I agree mostly with the previous reviews. The class seems very interesting and easy, but the professor really sucks the fun out of it. He is extremely monotoned, has a thick accent, and just reads off the ppt slides. He looks for very specific answers in his quizzes/midterm/final. He does not look like he is happy to be there and seems like he is really disappointed in his students all the time lol.

One nice thing about the class is that it is curved. It's hard to figure out what grade you will end up with, because it took him forever to grade our presentations (which we never found out the grades for). I just know that I ended up with a pretty decent grade even though I was expecting to barely pass.

I also did an honors contract with him and got an A. He is pretty lenient on grading, and is more concerned about your interest in the topic than the paper itself.

Overall, I would recommend the class because the material is useful for medical school and other health professions. But if you want to really learn you should learn more on your own, because you will not get much out of his lectures.
