This seems like a tough course for people like me who are horrible at reading/writing Chinese, and easier/more suitable for people who can already write/read a whole newspaper/etc. It would be great if anyone could chime in, thanks!
I heard 151 is on a completely different level.
I suggest you not to take it for easy credit... Unless you DO want to learn it.
