Excellent online course, especially for those who are not science majors and have intense course loads. The material is interesting and applicable to everday life, and the test are beyond easy. More than half of each test is comprised of matching questions! Also the extra credit for taking the practice tests makes it easy to get a good grade.Rate My Professors ↗

Class content was very interesting, but I was disappointed in my interactions with the professor. As a returning adult student, I found her to be not only inflexible, but rude in her responses to my questions.Rate My Professors ↗

Great class with a great professor. I took it online and all of her lectures were VERY clear and organized. Just take notes from the lectures and study them (and make sure you keep up with your work). There are 16 points total of extra credit up for grabs and all you have to do is take practice exams (which in turn help you study for the exams).Rate My Professors ↗

I am baffled at anyone who thinks this class is hard. She gives up to 16 points of extra credit, and I don't think you can get much easier than that.Rate My Professors ↗

not an easy A- when people say this class is easy, its the material they are talking about. However the tests are hard and making yourself do the work doesnt always happen.Rate My Professors ↗

Online makes it convenient and easy. Overall, if you study and do the online lectures you should pull off a good grade. Little work is needed and only 4 exams; no papers or quizes. Extra credit available too.Rate My Professors ↗
