Geog 3HH3
I was wondering if anyone had taken the course in previous years? The prof teaching it this year is Niko Yiannakoulia. The mark break down is:
Mid-term exam 25% February 10
Assignment 25% March 14
Final exam 50% TBA
What are his questions like? Is the assignment an essay? what did you have to do for it? Do they mark hard?
Also, I've never taken a geography course before so would it be hard for me to keep up with the class?
Thanx!

I am wondering about this course as well. From what I have heard the prof is really good, but I have only talked to a few people.

I took this course a couple years ago. I don't remember too much about the assignments, but I really liked the prof. The lectures were pretty fun and he made the information interesting. I got a B+ in the class, so the assignments must have been decent.

How difficult was his style of testing in this course, like the midterms and exam on a scale of 1-10? Thanks!

Im trying to get into this course, but what are the prerequisites?
It says there are courses that are RECOMMENDED, NOT required.
When I go on solar, it says I dont have the prereq for this course.
Help!

You're right, there are no prereqs. You can see here:

It sounds like SOLAR is messing up. Contact the Geography department on Monday and they should be able to put you in (if the class isn't full).
