He gives an exam every 2 weeks which is based on his lectures. If he doesn't discuss it in class, it will not be on the exam. Attendance is not mandatory, but to do well on the exams you should go; plus you get surprise extra credit for attending. There are two homework assignments, which are a breeze. DON'T BE AFRAID TO TALK TO HIM! He's awesome!

Prof. Brand was very helpful and cared a lot about his students. He was always doing everything in his power to make sure you understood his lectures. He gave PLENTY of extra credit which helped a lot with test. His class is easy if you pay attention and put time aside to study. He might seem a little intimidating, but hes actually very kind.

Asynchronous: Quiz each week (unlimited tries), 4 exams, 1 assignment. Definitely take this professor if you can! His pre-recorded lectures weren't boring, and the quizzes and exams were extremely easy. Such an amazing professor that definitely cares about his students.

He seemed rude at first but he really only wants students to succeed and work for their grades. The tests aren't super easy because he doesn't provide a study guide but by using his slides you should do well. You will need the textbook. This class is test heavy though about 6 tests plus the final and two other assignments.

Dr. Brand was one of my favorite professors. This class was definitely challenging, but he made the material understandable. He is always accessible and supportive and is always open to feedback. He may seem intimidating at first, but he is such a sweet and kind person who will help you regardless of your situation. I highly recommend taking him!

Took him for ABA. SO MANY EXAMS! he drops the lowest score thou. I was afraid to ask him questions because he's kind of scary. He likes to answer questions with questions. Only two HW assignments. I think total there were 7 exams plus the final which is cumulative. The exams were easy. Just study the lecture notes and any review questions.

Exams are based on powerpoints. Not very difficult if you put in time to read/ giver his lectures and notes. He is caring, and willing to answer questions during class. He makes his TA grade the essays. 4 essays (total 100points) and 4 exams (total 400 points). Gives extra credit during COVID. Easiest GE
