Professor Abramson is a really good professor. This class was really interesting and the material was so engaging that it wasn't like going to class but like watching tv for an hour and a half. The tests were really easy and the books were interesting. He doesn't give minus grades like A- or B- so if you get an A-, you get an A for the course. If you need a psych elective you should really try to take this class. It's a very popular class and when I took it there was a huge waiting list and I'm pretty sure he let everyone on the waiting list on.

Psych 187C: the material is very interesting, his lectures are ok. Just a midterm and a final, but beware, he makes his tests very tricky. Make sure you attend all lectures and do the readings. Interesting class, but he is kind of an a-hole -- talks badly to students, especially males.

This class is really interesting, but has almost nothing to do with psychology. It you're interested in law school or how sexuality is regulated in the US, this is definitely the class for you. The registrar says the class is three hours, but it never ends up running that long. 2 hours tops. You have a midterm and a final. And here's my main point in writing this: READ THE BOOKS!!! I took the final yesterday, thinking that I was set and sure to ace it because I knew the lecture material really well. But I'd say 60-70% of the test questions started with the phrase "According to the book.....". So if you do decide to take this class (which I really enjoyed!) PLEASE PLEASE read the book!!
