40/60 course. Final was cumulative and study guide was HUGE. Super difficult to know what to study. Gave the option to get one extra credit point for writing a final exam question and another extra point if he ended up using it. So pretty much you write the exam for him. Attendance not mandatory, interesting topics, but not very interesting class.

This was one of my favorite and most interesting upper div courses! Schooler is hilarious and his lectures are always so informational and engaging. Your grade is only based on exams so going to lecture and reading the book is important. He loves when students ask questions, and is overall a great professor!

Overall an average professor. He didn't show up to a single test we had this quarter, which I thought was kind of weird of him. Ended up going to about half of his lectures, didn't once read the textbook, and still ended up with an A-. Lectures are straightforward-- just memorize them and you'd be good. Tests not bad at all, very straightforward.

honestly the material was interesting and straight forward. the tests were very fair and he had study guides for the midterms and final! honestly very slay

The better of two midterms is 60% of grade, final is 40%. No homework. Attendance helpful, not mandatory. Schooler is a good lecturer; very knowledgeable, welcoming, and enthusiastic. Need to buy textbook. Class is not too difficult, but requires lots of memorization from readings/lectures. Long but helpful study guides. Extra credit opportunities.

The final was nothing like the two mid-terms difficulty wise. The midterms are 60% of your grade and final is 40%, he will give extra credit where you make exam questions and if he uses them he will give you more points. You basically make the exam for him. Doesn't even show up for the exams only TAs lectures aren't on the slides which don't help.
