THIS IS FOR HISTORY 4!!!
The class in general consists of just discussion section, a paper, midterm and final. Thats all you really need to worry about. But the readings can be a bit tedious and boring. its about 50 pgs a week and sometimes it goes up to about 100. I learned everything in discussion. If I hadnt had a good TA I would not have found the class as easy as I did. Bartchy is a horrible lecturer. I didnt pay attention after week 1. Its hard to understand him and he spends 20 min going over random tangents before he even gets to the core material and it doesnt make much sense to begin with. Some people will find his lectures offensive. He has a very strong opinion and unless you see it his way, your wrong. He will call you out on anything small detail that is wrong. Eventually, I started doing my readings in lecture because otherwise it was a waste of my time to go. Overall, it was an easy class but again ONLY because my TA went over things very thoroughly and sent out emails with whatever information we should know. the midterm and final are easy enough because we are given the prompts ahead of time. If you write an outline about each prompt you should be fine. Im a south campus major and this class was the least of my problems. I dedicated the least amount of time to it and I was fine. Some people find it hard though and hated the workload. Based on lecture, I would not take this class. You will not get anything out of it. Discussion was the only thing worth going to and was beneficial. Its all up to chance though. If your TA sucks, God help you.
