The class is not easy, and the thing that makes this class particularly hard is that you may not know where to start with the paper. APA manual si helpful when you know what mistakes to be aware of. Try to ask your TA about everything that you are not 100% sure of in your paper; they will help you and navigate you in the APA manual.
Exam material is very straight-forward; however, questions are rather tricky. Start preparing for those as early as you can! Re-read your lecture notes, take time processing everything professor Firstenberg says.

This class was alright. The professor doesn't do powerpoints so you need to take notes. That being said:

SELLING: notebook (need for lab), notes from lecture (via email) and old quizzes

Whew this class was pretty hard for me. The tests were horrible and confusing as heck for no reason, like what is the purpose of making the tests so confusing!? The lab section wasn't that bad, it honestly depends on your group members. They switched everything up and made it completely group-based, even the final paper is a group project. So if you have horrible group members, PLEASE speak up, either to your members or your TA, because your lab grade is very important. They also offer more extra credit this year (in the lab section) so that's cool. Class is curved, so just stay above the mean and you should be just fine! SELLING THE TEXTBOOK ( beth morling, research methods in psychology, 3rd edition) FOR 45$! email: ************* for more info. Good luck!

For an 8 AM class, it wasn't bad at all. This class was super low stress. We met once a week and Dr. Firstenbirg was very engaging and a good speaker, she knew how to keep peoples' attention because the material is quite boring. The exams were tough, you couldn't go back on your answers, but they were held remotely and it was open notes. The workload was easy (just tedious), and if you really tried at the ALM's or Labs they would be really good practice for the exams. Thankfully lectures are recorded though so you can go back and listen as many times as you need. Labs are also not mandatory, they say so explicitly and TAs upload the slides.

The structure of this class is amazing, and Professor Firstenberg has provided amazing resources to help students be successful. Going to lecture isn't necessary as it is recorded, and in my experience it was my Lab TA who made the course easier to understand. The key to this class is engaging in Lab and the ALMs; the questions on the exams are just like the ALMs. Also, the practice exams provided are extremely comprehensive + exams are open note. If you are able to, take 100B with Professor Firstenberg!
