Psych 3M03 Question
Hey guys!

I am taking Psych 3M03 in first term this upcoming year with Decatanzaro. For those that have taken the course before, was the textbook necessary, or were lecture notes sufficient to do well in this course? The book list says its required but I wanted to know if others found it useful since I've had many courses where I didn't end up using the textbook!

Thanks in advance!!

It's up to you. There are questions on the midterms and exam that can only be answered from information that is solely in the text, but you can still 12 the course while getting those questions incorrect, provided you ace the rest. Personally, I enjoyed the subject matter, and thus the text wasn't painful to read. I would buy it.

Thanks for the feedback!! I'm not sure if you've taken any of Dr. Day's courses but in his classes he also tests from the textbook and the chapters are really long and he picks the most random things to test on (at least that's how it seemed to me). I was wondering if this professor does something similar or is it easy to answer the questions after reading the textbook without taking notes or anything?

Also roughly how many questions on each test are solely from textbook material???
