It's a very interesting class and his teaching partner makes the class fun but it's definitely a harder class than it should be. ",

Exams can be a bit tough but with the in-class assignments it's not too difficult to get a good grade. I took this with micro 101/102 as my pre req and did just as well as the students who took 303/304. His teaching buddy Adam is hilarious and a great lecturer",
