Professor Wong teaches and tests directly off of his lecture slides. If you are decent at memorization and want an easy A, take this class! He's a really nice guy and even though the midterm and final are worth nearly 90% of the grade they are straight forward and fair. I only used the textbook for clarification on certain topics. This class didn't take up much of my time and I earned an A. I highly recommend this class to people looking for an easy life science GE or for people who are genuinely interested in psychobiology!
I really enjoyed taking Psych 15 with Krasne and Wong. The class wasn't the easiest but it was almost strictly memorizing powerpoint slides. Wong wasn't the most interesting lecturer but I enjoyed the material and found lectures to be decent. Another plus is that the course is bruincasted, allowing you to not have to attend class. There's two multiple choice exams that make up 90% of your grade (Midterm 36% and Final 54%) and both were completely multiple choice and not bad. Overall I thought the course was very interesting and not a bad science GE to take. I got a 30/40 on the first midterm and a 49/60 on the final and was able to pull out an A.
This class was a lot more bio-oriented than I expected. It entails an incredible amount of memorization, for me at least, which can be quite stressful if you procrastinate studying for the exams. Thank goodness the exams are multiple choice and non-cumulative, though. He also gives extra credit and curves the class (only if it will help your grade). I ended up with an "A+" in the class.
As much as I disliked the class, Professor Wong is actually a pretty nice guy. It's just the material that is boring and unlikable. My TA, Andrew, was not helpful at all. You're pretty much on your own for this class. Lectures aren't really necessary either as long as you read over and memorize the lecture slides that are posted online. If you're looking for an easy GE, this is not it.
he is a hottie as mentioned before, as long as you keep up, know what is going on, review the slides, you'll be fine. Make sure to ask questions if you don't understand something. He is entertaining. I slacked off, didn't put any effort and I got a D+ woops
For me the class was difficult personally, but I think if you keep on the readings, or at least memorize content in the lectures, you'll do fine. I had trouble since I'm not good at science and memorizing the names of certain details (like medicine names or brain part names), but if you start early, stay on top of things, there should be no problem. The class will be easy if you put in enough effort, and if you don't, it's difficult. Professor Wong himself seems helpful and keeps his lectures entertaining. I definitely recommend him if you're taking the course. If you have a good TA, don't hesitate to ask them questions either. Professor Wong encouraged use of the online forum/discussion board (on CCLE) at the beginning of class, so keep that in mind as a resource if you need it.
He is really cute and funny! The course material's interesting overall. I think the workload is pretty fair. Every week the TA will post 10 multiple choice questions online and if you answer more than 5 of them correctly you can get full points. The exams are not easy because some questions need a second thought but not difficult either, as long as you attend his lectures and study his slides. Also, there were 3 extra credit opportunities last quarter and they were not hard to get. Anyway, I highly recommend taking his Psych15! Got an A+ by the way :P
He is a hottie and a great lecturer. He goes off his powerpoint slides but you get all 10 weeks ahead of time so you can download and print them. Everything is memorization based but he is responsive of the class and really wants you to understand the concepts before moving on.
