easy class, lecture is not mandatory but helps because there is a lot of content. and the test questions are purely from lecture. an A is totally accessible if you actually study and do the readings. no section, just midterm and final

She is an average lecturer, but you are more focused on what is on the slides than what she says. She also goes really fast so you're left with incomplete notes. I didn't use the book until studying for the midterm and the final. The homework assignments are super easy and serve to give you points so do them.

Lectures are very long and dry and you wont stop writing notes until the hour and fifteen minutes is up. I thought her lectures moved way too fast at times and she rushed through as many slides as she could although most of the information was repetitive. As long as you know everything on the study guide, you should do very well on the tests.

The lectures are very long, and I never took notes, and got a B at least in class. You must attend every lecture (iClicker points are worth way too much for some reason). Take notes, do the study guides, maybe read (I kinda read half the chapters), and you'll do great on the exams. Homework are REALLY short (less than 15 mins) barely gave any too.

As other students said, Amy Jamieson shares a passion for her subject. However, her lectures go by so quickly that you can barely comprehend what she's saying because when you're writing a slide down she's already on the next topic. Be prepared to type or write your heart out Tuesday and Thursday mornings at 9:30 AM.

Easy A, just do all your assignments and fill out the study guides. If you go to all the lectures and pay attention then the midterm and final will be a breeze.

Easiest A I've ever gotten. Go to class and pay half attention and she will give you the answers to the midterm and final. She is really enthusiastic about the material and she lives a healthy lifestyle so it's not hypocritical. Take this class if you want an A without any effort involved.

Dont read the book, just go to lecture and try to take notes as fast as humanely possible, she goes WAY too fast to even let you digest what shes saying. But assignments are easy and tests are a regurgitation of lecture. Easy material. Shes not helpful though so dont expect her to help.

If you are taking ESS 3, it is completely unnecessary to go to class although she says it is mandatory. All assignments are posted on GauchoSpace and are graded on completion. Read the textbook through once and you'll be golden for the midterm and final. Super easy and pretty impossible to fail.

I went to class every time, ran everything she asked me too, and got a NP. Total bullsh*t! I tried contacting her about the grade but she never got back to me and now the grade is permanent because I already graduated. Do not take this class, she is really unprofessional and you are better off running on the beach...

Amy is amazing! She is truly the reason that I want to work in the fitness industry. Being an ESS minor, Amy has helped me to find my true passion for fitness and to find direction in my career path. I would recommend taking any of her classes! She's great!
