Medium-difficult course. Not an easy GE, but with a little bit of effort you can get an A. I got an A-, but that's because I got 80% on my first midterm for not listing enough details. So pay attention to details! Lots of memorization. Reading is not essential, but it will help you remember the essential information much more easily. Things are easier to remember when they're coupled with a story. You really do learn a lot from this class if you try. It is essential to attend lecture, because all of his tests are based on lecture. There are two 4-5 page papers, graded by your TA. Section attendance is 15% part of your grade, so I'd say having a good TA would help. Andy Kinzler's a nice guy. There are 2 midterms and one final. Tests consist of different types of short answer questions and one interpretive essay. Pay attention to the images. Sometimes he posts his PowerPoint slideshows before lecture, so you could print those out and bring them to lecture to take notes on. But that's a lot of ink, so I'd recommend bringing your laptop and viewing the slides from there. I have lecture voice recordings and notes that pertain to the midterm formats. I also have reading notes, study guides, and practice exams. Email me at ************* if you're interested.

I took this class this quarter. I got a 93 and a 95 on the midterms, a 100 and a 96 on the essays and i dont know yet what i got on the final The tests are completely fair. He goes off the bold and italicized words in his lecture notes. Going to class is a must if you want to know the details he wants from you on his tests. If you miss a day, see if your TA can help I had Bethany Simpson, she was amazing. I missed 2 lectures bc i was sick and I got lecture notes from her, my TA, go figure. Seriously people your TA's are there to help you, not scare you. If you miss a day get notes from anyone, its better than nothing at all. He puts important slides online that you need to know. There are questions on geographical locations. These he stresses in his lectures and they come form the reading. DO the reading, the passages are specific. It is necessary if you want an A. The paper topics are always great. I loved them I really enjoyed this class, and I have come out knowing a lot, not just a bunch of random facts, I think I really know about the ROMANS!
