Prof Brenne can be very repetitive, but this really helps in retaining the information that he's teaching. His multiple choice midterm was not too bad. And his final is very long but he gives the same exact copy one week before the final. If you have Gerardo as TA, GO TO HIS REVIEW SESSIONS. I found it very helpful. Overall, Prof Brenner is good lecturer and makes sure you have the information down. He answers as many questions as he can as long as it helps to makes his point in the lecture.

This class was about Economic European history. The subject wasn't that great but he got a good point across. He repeats stuff so he can get it in your head. The midterm was ok, it was multiple choice true/false, and the final was ok but took a while to do. The final was exaclty like the StudyGuide he gave us, even though thats cool, you still have to remember a lot of the stuff he taught. Very cool professor, he seems like he gets irritated with questions, but in reality he encourages it. So a pretty good professor. Worth taking, also the he looks at attendance when grading, so its important to attend class.
