Purely memorization based course. If you're good at memorizing, then go for it, super easy course. However, I am horrible with memorization (More of a calculations person), and I ended up doing pretty bad in that course.
The prof is a great guy though, very kind, and makes an effort to adjust to his students' needs.

Edit: Wait, is this for HSCI 120 or HSCI 140? I don't believe he teaches HSCI 120.
Sorry, yea I was referring to HSCI 140. So pure memorization eh?



On a side note, has anyone taken Physics 101?

I'm kind of in a tough position cause I took the Physics 100 equivalent at Langara, but literally did not learn anything. The prof was completely useless.

I feel like I'll get wrecked in Physics 101 if I don't have the proper foundation for it, I've only taken physics 11 in high school and that was like 4 years ago.

And if I retake physics 100 it's going to waste one of my repeats which an advisor told me was not worth it…

So if anyone has taken Physics 101 please enlighten me on the course please.
