Geo 3AA3

An extremely easy course. You are giving 11 pop quizzes worth 33% of your grade and you are allowed to drop your lowest 2. They are very very easy; if you come to class you will get the answer. 33% and 33% of your grade goes toward two tests *no exam!*. The first one was very easy. For both tests, the students submitted questions and the professor took the best ones and gave it to the students, where approximately 50% of the questions came from. However, the second test was obviously used to lower the average as the questions were very random and came from a single sentence in the courseware of hundreds of pages. I went into the last test with 100% in the course, and just barely came out with my 12. The professor is funny at times, but is a jerk most other times.

He is very bad, hence my low score for professor. However, last year it was extremely easy to do well. If you didn't study you got a 10, and if you studied you got a 12. There wasn't much work. I heard he changed it this year. It sounds much harder. So take my review with a grain of salt.
