SOILSCI 131
Quality 4/5Difficulty 1/5
A very knowledgeable and passionate professor in the Soil Sciences. Tests were based entirely on the lecture material, with three brief assessments to decide the final grade. Can be difficult to tell what material should be paid the most attention to as he delivers much information. All material is important, make sure to memorize soil classes.

SOILSCI 131
Quality 2/5Difficulty 3/5
Grade was based off of a midterm, final, and a 600-word essay. Lectures were extremely boring. The workload is fair for a one credit class, but it was unclear what to expect on the exams content-wise.
