His tests make no sense and are VERY difficult. Couldn't even be bothered to show up for the first class of the semester. he also has a 10 point extra credit essay at the end of the courseThere are 2 exams, half of the exam is based on what he "lectures" in class and the other half is from the book. Interesting subject though. There is only a midterm and final.
