Dr. Jaffe is a great guy! His story is very inspiring and you can tell he really loves his work. The midterms were fair and there was plenty of review. Somtimes I felt like I was just memorizing past answers instead of actually learning material though. I wish he would not follow the given slides and do more of his own. He is very open to help you out and is a great presenter though. I ended up with an A-

I just took Psych 100a with Jaffe (Winter 2014) and I thought he was actually very good. I didn't know what to think going in because there were no reviews for him (which is kind of my motivation for doing this). I'm going to try to give everyone the best idea of what 100a with Jaffe is like.

His Lectures: Decent. He's such a nice guy I don't want to call them a waste of time, but every so often he'd have calculations to do and ask someone to actually calculate it which seemed kind of a waste of time. I decided about week 5 that the best use of my time would be to stop going to lecture and read the online textbook. His powerpoints were pretty dry in all honesty. Nothing he said wasn't in the book. He seemed to go right along with it anyways...but nice guy...

Tests: 3 Midterms and a Final. All multiple choice which seemed to make it much easier. He had practice tests online and you can go to the testbank at SAC to get Mcauliffe's past midterms which look exactly alike. Just master all the possible curveballs the online book has, any questions you can get your hands on, and you should be good to go. Never in my life have I got a perfect score on a midterm and I did in this class. You can too! Read the textbook, know everything in the chapters, do the problem solvers, memorize all formulas, try practice multiple choice and you're gold.

I ended up with a A in the class. I thought it was very straight forward, any curveballs on the tests were pretty reasonable. Good guy, I hope he doesn't make the tests any harder in the future. In short, if he is teaching 100a and you need the class, he is your best bet for a good grade.
