The class was pretty tricky, but not too bad. Don't overstudy. just really make sure you can understand the course reader material. For me, I didn't do so great on my midterm (got a low B) but i believe i got a higher grade on the final, ended with a B. On the exams, the first instinctive answer is usually right (at least 80% of the time) and i could have gotten an A- on my midterm had I followed my instinct and not changed my answers once i put them there (unless i know for sure my answer is wrong). for the final, I had a better idea of what I was doing, so I ended up ok. Also, participate in class as he will possibly raise your grade by half a letter if he sees you make the effort to really participate consistently. Overall tough class but it was interesting and I learned useful stuff.
