take Prof. Reise! He was a very organized, funny, funny lecturer. he posts his notes up beforehand, straightforward with material, and even gives students a lot of extra credit opportunities which in turn help you for the exams. I love his "let me tell you" as another student posted. be prepared to laugh. read the book, read his notes and you will be fine on the exams. you can't help but psych people when you finish the course. this is one class that i really enjoyed compared to all other psych. classes i have taken. highly recommend taking 129D with Reise.

He's a funny guy. The tests are extremely straightforward. He provides a study guide for them and sticks to it. The course was enjoyable. He's one of the most down-to-earth professors you'll ever have as well. Outside of class he seems a bit pressed for time though, and seems to be a little more concerned with research than with teaching psychology. All in all, not a bad guy. If I could take another course with him, I would.

Personality Psychology is a pretty interesting class. While the lectures weren't extremely thrilling, they were fairly entertaining. There was only a midterm and final and both were composed of multiple choice questions. As long as you read the book (which isn't hard reading at all) and study his lecture notes (which he posts ahead of time on the web), it is easy to get an A.
