CollegeLecture
Great class overall, lectures can get a bit boring, exams are straight forward and pretty simple if you actually study. TA's are very helpful and lowk funny.
He is a sweet man but sometimes the lectures just get too boring and I lose focus but it is a fun class and I would take again.
He has a very thick accent so its hard to understand him sometimes. His slides don't relate to what he talks about. A lot of reading but I never did it because there's no homework. A lot of the final and the midterm were common sense. The TAs are great but they clearly don't agree with a lot of his practices.
Professor Singh is such a passionate lecturer! This class was engaging and interesting (you get extra points for attending the guest lectures). Please please go to his lectures towards the end of the quarter! There were maybe 30-45 people there towards Week 6-10 and it's so disappointing :( I can tell that he loves his job
For the final, we had to hand write a 1000 word essay along with 25 multiple choice questions in 1 hour and 15 minutes since he had the test on week 10. I would not take this class again for that reason. Other grades were 1 midterm, 2 section presentations worth 10% in total and section attendance worth 10%. Overall interesting class.
So much reading! It's actually crazy. Avoid this class if possible because it was about 150 pages of reading a week. The professor assigned way too much for a lower division introduction class.
