GEOG3 . Ding Q A Month Ago

Lecture slides include alot of very useful info and the homework is helpful too. Midterms and final are kinda hard but there is a big curve at the end. Also he provides all the textbook readings so no need to spend money on that.

This guy is actually the goat. TAs are goated too and will give you corrections on all the assignments you missed points on, you just have to ask. Tests are lowkey kinda difficult, but if you lock in a bit, you're fine. Honestly, you don't even have to lock in the curve at the end is fire, and its like impossible to fail this class.

Go to lectures and pay attention. Tests are hard, but big curve at the end. He's kind of hard to understand, but just really pay attention, and you'll be fine. TAs help you out a lot with the weekly section activity. Overall, pretty easy class and a good GE to get out of the way.
