Awful

Professor Karaganis held long, boring lectures, and while the content might have been interesting there was no explanation for most of it. You need to read the book to do well on the tests and in the class. The lab practicals are really hard and they make up a huge portion of the grade.

Awesome

This professor loves the topics he teaches. You don't need the textbook if you review your notes from class. You can also earn extra points in class quizzes by boosting your test grade by more than 10 points. If your test score is over 100, you can't keep the extra points but this seems fair. The tests aren't too tough. You just need to study.
