Spring 2024 - Easy GE definitely take it. He gave our class basically a guaranteed 9% extra credit meaning you needed an 84% or above to get an A. 20% of the grade is participation, 25% is the final paper, and both of these are pretty much an automatic 100% if you are present at discussion sections/turn in a half decent paper (wrote my entire paper at 3 am the night before it was due and got 100%). After extra credit, paper, and participation, its basically just the midterm and final. I didn't go to class once at all. and just dialed tf in before the final and got a 103% on the final. I recommend the same thing; don't go to class or open the book for the whole quarter, just lock in before the test and you're good. Basically, you don't do a damn thing for ten weeks, dial in for the final and midterm, and you get a free A. All the other reviews about 'too much work" or "too much memorization" are dumb, you don't need to do any work until finals week.
