i want to take this course, but i'd have 8:30 classes everyday and i'm not sure if i can trust myself to wake up for all of them. i might take it still but i missed the class today, did you attend?

I did..but am not sure if it's a course that will be much fun :S
Have you heard something nice abt this class??lol..or anything from the students who took it last yr? i m thinking of reasons why i should keep the course

Here is the outline if you are interested:

is it a big class? it sounds interesting...but depending on the prof it has potential to be hella boring, hopefully someone can tell us if it's at least easy or interesting

LOL it's not that big of a class..the lecture hall is not too big n not too small..HSC 1A6..so yeah..
and yeah i m trying to figure out if this class is interesting or easy..but by the looks of it..and the way the prof was talking abt it..she didn't seem to be advertising much for this course..which is scary.. :| It seemed as though she was only trying to scare away students..telling that it would be a hard class..and not so much fun..so i m totally lost now!
I am guessing you havent spoken with anyone who took this course before..?

lol nope, maybe i'll just stick with behavioral ecology for now...

I have beh. ecology too..that's rt before this class..i m pretty sure that's going to be interesting

Humpreys is an awesome teacher. However I noticed you have a specific TA there, I won't name names but you will figure it out. Literally he trashed everyones paper last semester. Other TA's gave out easy 100's and he was dishing out 40s. If you do take it avoid the TA who acts like he's the prof. There's my warning lol.

yup behavioural ecology was very interesting. I took it with Dr. Balshine last year.

hi richa

Hey Amita! lol..nice to see u here..

ratemyprofs has basically no positive reviews for this prof+course :|
This is CRAZYYYYY
madnessssss! aaaaaah

Oh shoot. Sorry similiar last names lol. I took 2H03. She definitly made a boring course more fun. Her type of questions though are difficult. She even warns you how hard they are going to be.

LOL it's not just similar last names..it's the same prof she also teaches psychology of language..which is psych 3uu3
I took 2h03 with Watter and loved it..but not really sure if i am going to enjoy her teaching as much..and then the course material

I missed the first 15 mins of the first lecture and I just realized they test in essay format..

this means that your mark for the most part will depend on who's marking.. Don't like that one bit
nevermind the fact that the teach herself was basically asking people to drop the course with they way she introduced it saying its hard and implying that its boring

I'm going tomorrow, If i dont like what I c,i'm out
