Very helpful! Made sure you understood the information. Overall, great teacher.
this guy is awesome.....he is fun and you learn a lot in his class
Baker is an awesome teacher...very funny and keeps the class interesting! Would highly recommend taking his courses!
this class is a lot of work, but Dr. Baker makes it fun. As long as you do your work and have a posotive attitude you will pass. He dosen't like lazy students or cry babies. overall a good experience.
Go to class, pay attention in Lab, READ the text...get to know Prof. Baker and this class will be a breeze! The tests are tricky but fair, and the lab is easy!
Mr. Baker is such a nice guy and great teacher. He likes to interact w/ the students, he's a cutie pie!

totally awesome teacher, i have him for human sex, that's probably the only class i actually enjoy, and the only class i attend continuously, his tests are from his study guide, so just study that and you'll do fine. very helpful! take his classes.
he's cute, the class is borring, but easy. If you go to class and use his study guides you'll do great. He's obsessed with correlations and doesn't cover sex hardly at all.
This class is easy. Be ready for an easy quiz every Friday.
Pretty Good professor. Answers all e-mails and is very helpful if you need it. Not stuck up. Class can somtimes get boring because of the material. But overall he's a not super easy but not terribly difficult. Follow the study guides and just keep up with the work. He also likes to be called Jack.
Baker is a great teacher. The material is a bit boring but he makes it as fun as possible. He is very easy to talk to. Test are easy just follow the study guide. Take Baker for this class.
Take him. He is awesome. He makes the class fun. His exams can be confusing but just study and take the notes. Take Him
Mr. Baker is a great teacher. He's always willing to help out. He likes to interact with the class. The tests are fair. It may seem like it's hard but his lectures help a lot when reading the book. Make sure you understand the study guide. Labs are actually interesting and useful.
While I see I am in the minority here I do not believe his teaching style is organized or professional. I would go into a test having done his study guide by the book definition which corresponds to his lecture and did not correspond to the test. Read the dry book, it will help you pass!
Mr. Baker is a fun teacher. Lectures are fun. Make sure to really study from the study guides. Tests can be confusing. The class was fairly easy. I would recommend him!
He is hot, and interesting. The subject is boring, but he goes on interesting tangents that keep you awake. Tests are easy if you study the book.
Mr. Baker is the only teacher that knows everyone's names.. =) He is very helpful- I think I'm crushing on him.. haha (which is a good thing cuz that's the only reason I go to class) I write this cuz HE READS THESE! I rate him a 10! so take C. Baker! Oh.. and don't ride the tardy train please---

I totally loved this class. He had a different way of teaching, but I was never bored and always entertained. The tests are hard, but there are no surprises if you follow the study guide. I did well in lab and in the class. Plus he always let us out of lab early!!! I would take him again if i could. No one could make research methods as fun as him!
I loved this class and miss it. Material is demanding but the least you have to do is read,review ppt handouts and notes. There's never a dull moment and he is NEVER in a bad mood when teaching! I wish I could be as lighthearted as Dr. COUGAR, M.D. <- Extra Credit to call him that
Tardy Train Baker really is a cool teacher. He makes the material seem like it's fun(but it's not). He's very helpful. If you don't like being called out in classes then don't take him...you'll be sorry because he's the best teacher to take for boring 301. Hi Craig...if you're reading this
Mr. Baker is by far one of the best professors at CSUF. His teaching style is very relaxed. I loved his study guides and power points. they were really helpful for the exams. Take his class.. you won't regret it!
Mr. Baker is a great teacher to take for a boring subject like statistical analysisbecause he is always happy, fun and interesting, which makes you forget how boring the subject matter is. The material is easy to understand because he gives funny, true-to-life examples. He is always willing to help and makes himself readily available.
this teacher is really nice and easy to have fun with...
He's an ok professor. He's funny which makes class interesting but his tests can be difficult.
No Comments
****ing Hilarious!The class is extremely easy, if you do your work. Professor Baker is hot so it makes the class much easier... plus his humor makes the class more enjoyable. He knows all the students by first and last name and is very personable. He is an amazing guy! I know you read this Professor Baker. Have a nice day!

craig makes the material of this class seem not so confusing.. which is amazing to me because the content of this class is extremely dry and boring. sometimes his enthusiasm is a lot to take when you're half asleep but it's generally very refreshing. and because of his ridiculous taunting, i'm proud to say i've never ridden the tardy train. LOL
easy teacher...funny and not a lot of work.....I RECOMMEND HIM
This class is hard since its all about research, however Baker makes it easier. Still can get confusing, but if you go to class then you should be okay. The labs are okay. Not too much boring work to do. Overall Baker is helpful and makes the content a little more easy to understand. Plus he has a good sense of humor.
Baker is the best teacher i have had yet. He is so funny and nice. he makes class fun and easy to attend. everyone passes his class even though the materal is hard. Dont be shocked if he****you. he is so funny!
BEST teacher for this subject!!! Take him, but be willing to do an intensive study guide before every test. The tests are insane. But he's very relaxed and he doesn't take roll.
Best teacher I dealt with. Is considerate,, thoughtful, and extremely helpful. I recommend him to everyone.
Baker was awesome and I would recommend his class to anyone. He is very enthusiastic, funny and patient. The material is tedious and the tests are long but Baker is great about pointing out during lectures exactly what you need to pay special attention to and the study guides are very comprehensive of what is on the tests.
Best teacher ever!! This could have been a very boring class, however he managed to make it fun and interesting with a great sense of humor. The tests are difficult but managable if you read all the chapters and study a lot. He is very helpful and has a great teaching strategy. Lab was easy, mostly in class assignments.
Interesting class but hard if it is your first psych class, alot of graphing linear relationships. Make sure you read the book and study for the tests or you wont pass and you have to come to class. Over all he was fun and interesting but the class was more serious then I thought it would be.
Mr. Baker is crazy seriously. This was a class that had no lecture, but I love Baker still even though your insane. I would take him again just because I have never laughed so hard in any class.....you gotta try him out just once...The material is hard you just have to have self control...
He was a really cool teacher. He made class interesting and I actually wanted to be there.
He's a very noce prof. but lot of writen assigment in class. His lectures are interesting because he make joke that make it easy to remember. lot of quizes but you can drop your lowest. the questions on the quizes will show up on the exam. sometime the exams kind of tricky because he has a lot of none of the above. ALL YOU LEARN IS FALLACIES
Baker is probably the best professor I have ever had! If you take his class be prepared to laugh hysterically the entire semester. Simply Amazing!

The class in not organzied at all. The study guide is a waste of time and doesn't match the test. Find a real teacher and skip this guy's class.
Baker was a really funny guy! He gave a ton of in class assignments at first but then gave us a break. Quizes every week and only 2 test and 2 papers. He gave us a very clear study guide the first day and that was awesome! Great guy but still a strick professor, you'll want to go to class just so you don't miss his comedy routine.

Baker is the nicest teacter ever! His class is hard. I had to repeat his class, but that was becouse I didn't really try the first time. Many things baker teaches are helpful in real life. I recomend him
Dr Baker is one of the better teachers I have had at CSUF. Hes' young so some of the girls think hes' cute. Hes' really nice, but the class is kind of hard. He is very organized and helpful
there are quizes everyweek, the quizes are easy! he gives you the EXACT quiz questions, you just have to look up the answers, the answers are in the text, and very easy to spot the answers. Im not sure if hes teachin the sex class anymore but hes a nice fun guy!
Baker is a fun teacher!! loves to pick on students and plays favorites!! but he makes class fun and interesting..attendence is mandatory in a way bc he knows all his students..are quizzed weekly..all you learn is fallacies but he makes them fun..test questions are given to you bc he uses the question from your quizzes!! over easy class!!
Baker rocks. He is by far the best teacher at CSUF. I would highly recommend him for CAS 301 or any other class he teaches. He is so helpful, his power points are great and he is hilarious. Show some effort and you can definitely get an A. And remember, don't ride on the tardy train, wooot woooot!!!
Fun teachers who's fairly hilarious and tries to get all the students involved with class. Baker tries to help students out as much as possible with Power Points and providing us with quiz questions before the quiz, but I think students don't do well because his laid back attitude makes people feel like they don't have to work. So work a little...
Baker is a great professor. He tries to make the class fun. You do need to do the reading & show up to class to do well. I don't know how people can complain about him it is college! He never made our lab stay the entire time which was nice. He has two "pop" quizzes but he tells u when they are so they're not "pop". You must do ALL his assignments!
Overall a fun, interesting teacher.
Stay as far away as possible.He expects too much. I just want my degree and he expects us to learn. Waht a loosert. Don"t not take him...
Baker is very helpful! He is funny and will keep you busy. Its not an easy class, but he is a cool guy.
Cool Teacher. He is really funny. Just read the book he assigns and you will do fine. Test are kind of challenging though. Everything else is pretty simple and easy.
Baker is a funny guy. His tests are really hard but his study guides are great. If you thoroughly answer his study guides and review them, you should have no problem passing his class. "Tina Quinones" means TEST QUESTION! if he says this, mark your notes with a fat star. He does not test on material he does not cover. Would definitely recommend him
Just wanted to make everyone aware of the post made on 11/2... Professor Baker posted that himself. I was in class when he did it. He's a really funny guy. Don't let this post scare you. His exams are challenging. Don't expect to pass without cracking the text book.
Craig Baker rocks! He's always so helpful and is really passionate about his job. Professional and extremely knowledgeable. Do you work and you'll be fine. I highly recommend him! :)
Baker is such a cool professor. He is so funny (sometimes inappopriately funny haha). One bad thing about this class is that it's a lot of work. Quizzes every week, in-class essays, and big tests. But don't let this scare you. He teaches it well and it's easy to understand. I recommend this class!
Baker is laid back, but his class is definately not an easy A if you don't try.
soooo funny
He's very knowledgeable and so funny. Not an easy class.
I agree with the rater below. Mr. Baker jokes around a lot and does play favorites. Sometimes bitter and somewhat childish. I don't know why he is still here. Do the work and you'll pass for sure. Take someone else if you can. Waste of time.
For the haters:You control your destiny not the teacher. If you ask a chemistry profes. one question, he turns around & asks you two. In the end you still won't know what the answer is and he'll get angry if you're stupid.Be grateful.CB is intelligent &always willing to help his students when needed.If he's hard it's because he wants you to excel.
SO FUNNY! he doesnt play favorites... he's just a bit sarcastic towards those annoying kids in class who wont shutup and comments on everything. if youre just laid back or you show genuine effort, he returns the effort. his class is really hard though and you HAVE to work, but might as well take a professor who can make you laugh through it!
Extremely informative, and very helpful. He's a funny guy and really cares about his students education. I'd definitely recommend him.
Overall, this class is hard no matter who teaches it. Professor Baker is very chill, lectures are long, but informative. Text book reading is ABSOULTLY REQUIRED to be able to understand the material. Tests are straight from notes; understand and be able to APPLY the information. In general, a hard class, but not an impossiable class.
Tries to act tough the first day of class but he'll relax as long as the class is respectful. Two lit. reviews (mandatory). 1st one, he helps you write. 2nd one, is all on your own. Three test, not too hard (one takes the place of the midterm), then the dept. final and a group presentation. The book helps, powerpoint note but no blackboard.
Very good prof. Comes off as touhg on the first day but mellows out over the semester. VERY SARCASTIC but makes jokes throuhgout class. Tends to get sidetracked talking to students on lab days so don't expect help to come too quickly. Read the book, go to class, write notes, ask questions, and STUDY. This class was tough, but not impossible.
I LOVE BAKER! The class is hard but Baker makes in interesting and fun. I had another teacher for 301 and failed the class...with Baker, I actually understood what he was teaching. I wish I could take Baker for more classes but he is too busy taking care of all his babies and his baby mama drama to teach any more classes!
At the very beginning, it seems like a really hard class because of the assignments and everything but as time progressed, it is actually fairly easy. Don't be discouraged about the essays that are required. They are VERY easy. He is funny and his tests are easy too. The study guide questions HELP A LOT. His tests basically are based on those.
Way cool.. but attendance is mandatory. One day you do in class assignments for points and one day you have a quiz from the reading. You have to be there to get the points. Easy 20 page book summary at the end of the course. Baker gives all the materials before every test and quiz!!
Great prof. Needs 2 textbooks and one other book for the book report. Gives out examples and questions that will be on the tests right before and/or before test day. Will give out hints on whats expected on the tests if you go to office hours. Will definitely help for the Damer quizzes and tests. attendance is mandatory
He was very helpful and hes hilarious!
Baker is Awesome, he's so funny. He actually has the ability to make the most boring subject fun! Study, do your work & you'll be fine! It's a college level course w/ a college amount of work, but Baker makes it interesting! I'm taking him again for 310!! :)
Good teacher, cracks jokes, follow powerpoints and take notes. Likes to poke fun at students for being late but not that big of a deal. Good teacher, I'm taking him again.
I love Baker!!! He is a great professor. I wish he taught more classes. He makes boring material fun and I learn more from his class than any of my other classes! Take him!!!! he's the best!
Baker has a different style of teaching but he is VERY funny and makes class fun! The class is EXTREMELY hard but STUDY STUDY STUDY the study guide and read the chapters(book is a must)and you'll be fine.First exam 100 q's and hard,after that exams are easy and 60q's.also, he lets u leave early almost every day!
Baker makes a very boring class fun! His teaching style is entertaining and keeps you alert! He is just a down to earth guy and will help you out when you need it! Best teacher I have had in college! A- in this class!
Professor Baker is a good teacher. However, his exams are very difficult!! It is one of those classes you think will be easy however watch out for the 100 ? exams, they will get you even though you think you have studied. I would highly recommend Professor Baker.
Loved him. He was the best professor I've had at Fullerton. He has a great lecture method so you remember. But don't be fooled the 1st test is MAJOR hard. He will literally tell you everything to study, you just have to study. It is possible to get an A. He WANTS you to get an A. TAKE HIM!
Great teacher! If you are too smart you may not get it. He teaches life stuff, but if you're not too smart you won?t get it. So read the book and that way maybe you will get the book stuff and pass the class at least. Best teacher ever, save Socrates. You Rock!
Well what can I say? The most refreshing vibraint teacher ever. He's not really into psy per se, but what can I say? But If your're lazy or stupid you will not do well, but what can I say?Baker Is ligit...
Hot teacher and totally entertaining. Really wants to help, encourages students to use office hours, which really do help. Would take any class he taught. You gotta take it and it's not easy so you might as well have fun trying to learn it! Tests are difficult. READ THE BOOK and know the study guide and be able to apply it. Baker ROCKS!
Yes he can be funny at times but other times he was just weird. He showed up to class on the first day with a stuffed horse and held it till class finished. The class is hard. You must read the book. He went off topic so many times, it was annoying. When I would email him for help he told me to figure it out myself. I wouldn't recommend him.
Baker is amazing. Tough class but study and you'll do well. Funny and makes class interesting.
Really interesting professor, always had an cool story or idea to share with the class. Tests are a bit hard, he does not really go over material in lecture. Make sure to read the book or any assigned readings he gives through blackboard. Overall, cool personality, but fails a bit on the teaching side.
great professor
Honeslty, he is the worst prof. that I've had so far! He was so uninterested and didn't put forth ANY effort to teach us! Most of the time I'd skip class because I couldn't stand him! I still did really well because I pretty much taught myself most of the material. If you take classes seriously I wouldn't recommend taking him!
awesome teacher!! i highly recommend taking his class! make sure to attend every class and use the study guide! i would definitely take him again.
I loved Baker, however, I do not think that he is the best professor. There was always miscommunication between him and his TA. I had to attend TA office hours constantly in order to actually understand the material. Baker mentioned he is retiring so I think he is just in that mentality already. You definitely have to work hard for a good grade.
Baker is awesome! Tries his best to make class and the subject interesting. Study guides= quiz+exam questions so do the study guides! Listens to songs from time to time and shows interesting and relevent videos in class. Great teacher, highly recommend!
His class is pretty easy as long as you study! Study guides he give us are basically what is going to be on the quizzes/test so DO NOT bs the study guide. His lectures were pretty boring. His homework (study guides & essays) are very time-consuming so try not to procrastinate! But the book review he gives us is pretty easy..
Honestly made me love psychology. He is a really cool guy. Attendance was not mandatory when he lectures but you MUST take all his quizzes and turn in his book reviews. Basically if you do the study guides and study them, it's an easy A.
The ppt lecture notes were helpful while studying, but his presentation of the notes was always disheveled and unorganized; it was very difficult to relate to other aspects of class. The only way I got a B+ was by being GLUED to the textbook. He didn't even finish some lectures before exams, twice! Always talking about retiring. LAME.
Awesome personality, really gets to know his students. This is not an easy class though when it comes to tests. Used the book more than the notes. Notes he gives aren't very helpful. For tests he wants you to demonstrate full knowledge of the topics, not just definitions. I liked him more than I liked the actual class. Lab attendance is mandatory.
Professor Baker is a good teacher. Ultimately what you learn in the class is very helpful later on in your studies. Tests are very challenging! One writing assignment experiment. Overall a good teacher, not great.
Not a very good psychology 300 professor at all. I believe it was his first time teaching it and it really showed. I felt like i learned nothing at all and he did a poor job at keeping the class professional. Students were cussing and behaving like immature children. DO NOT TAKE HIM FOR PSYCHOLOGY 300.
The person below must have been an outcast in my class because we were in his only psyc300 class. He relates with the students on a personal level and makes classes fun with his humor. He taught us a lot of very useful information and made everything very clear. I even got a job because of the systems he taught us here! Awesome teacher!
The class was passable but only because this was his first time teaching this class and he did not seem very organized. He is pretty funny and offers help when needed. In regards to the comments below, there were some students in his class whom always felt the need to comment on everything and did not seem appropriate (out of his control).
You must read and study notes. This class is just difficult period for me. Study study study. Ask him for help and participate. He's friggin hilarious made the class enjoyable
Hes a cool professor but the class is tough. I dont necessarily think the students should blame the subject matter on him. He was unclear with what he expected since he's such a laid back guy. I found myself getting frustrated at times but he is always willing to help. If you respect him, come to class and do all the HW it will show on your grade.
If you take a class with Baker either 202 or 300 be prepared to study study study and to really KNOW the material. It's not enough to just know definitions, but you need to be able to apply them in situations. Baker is a really cool prof and really laid back but his tests are TOUGH, however i learned more than i would have w another professor.
He should have focused more on conveying the material clearly than trying to make us laugh with lame jokes. I found his lectures extremely vague and hard to follow and was scared to ask questions in class. However, he is VERY helpful in office hours and saved me at the end of the semester when i messed up on my final project. Do not walk in late.
Would definitely take Professor Baker again. He has a dry sense of humor that makes class a little more interesting. Tests are the hardest part of this class. He's more than willing to help out every student! Make sure you never miss class or are late! Also, cell phones are NOT allowed & if it's out you'll get points reduced. He's pretty cool tho!
If you want to be treated like a high school and have no clear direction, then take him. I regret taking him as one of my first professors as a transfer student. He did not make the class easy to learn. His tests are ambiguous in answers and you get points taken away for being 5 mins late.
Prof Baker is a good teacher. His exams are difficult and somewhat ambiguous, depending on the content. The papers are intense if Research/Methods is not easily grasped. I liked the class but found it to be hard. The lectures were detailed - the Power Point's were easy to follow and concise. While I had challenges, I would take him again.
recommend. pp lectures every class, 3 pop quizzes in semester which he told us when they were and what there on. 3 exams, they were hard honestly. final is cumulative and definitely the hardest exam. Use the study guide in studying. IRP is easy, just get everything done fast and on time so you have time to ask for help if needed. he's funny
Prof. Baker I find to be a very direct but nice guy. He clearly states in the beginning of the expectations he wants for students. I've never found him funny at all if anything it was his awkwardness that made me laugh. I would recommend another professor if anything his TA SAVED and HELPED me learn more than he ever did. Worry about the exams.
Professor Baker's class was tough but it was an interesting class. Prof. Baker was a calm and nice professor but make sure you do not have your cell phones in class and are not late. His tests were tough in which he did give you a study guide for each but you better read the book and go over it in class. The labs were fun and the IRP was not hard.
Professor Baker's class was really not that hard. He makes the class very entertaining and the material interesting. The two big projects he gives out are easy as long as you don't procrastinate (he has deadlines to keep you on track/give feedback). YOU HAVE TO STUDY for tests.. not cram the night or two before but like actually study. Def take tho
I feel like I didn't learn much from his lectures. He was always jumping from one thing to another. The only reason I passed was teaching myself the material when I got home. This class is not the type to cram and pass. Study at least a week before an exam. Read your textbook and make quizlet your best friend.
Professor baker has taught be little to nothing in class. His in class lectures are just him rambling. He spends his time in class doing little to no teaching. We get 40 question quizzes every week where we have to teach ourselfs everthing outside of class. If you take this class expect to learn little from professor baker and all from yourself.
Hw is like 40-60 problems a chapter and there are weeks that you have more than one chapter. Nothing is taught in lecture. 40 question quizzes every week and the tests have 100+ questions all multiple choice. Also makes you read another book and write papers about it. Take the class if you just want to waste all of your time doing a lot of nothing
Baker is a great professor. He does give lots of homework but keep in mind the questions he gives you serves as a study guide for weekly quizzes and exams. Everything you need to know for the tests can be found in these study guides. Easy A if you do all your work. Makes you read a book and write 2+ page reviews. Must also participate in research.
He is not calm, he thinks it's funny to scare and intimidate students for the first part of the semester. Test questions are worded so you have to read them several times. He is not too hard but have to deal with his mood swings.
Professor Baker does have many mood swings, and a very dry sense of humor. He holds your hand through the papers, but because of this he will grade harshly for very small things! He will find a way to put you on the spot no matter where you sit. Tests are not easy, purposefully makes all 3 tests with trick questions and answers.
Thinks hes zen, but he clearly has some sort of mood disorder going on (this university seems to have a good number of emotionally/psychologically unstable lecturers/professors). Lectures are filled with cringe jokes. No interpersonal skills whatsoever. Papers are straightforward. Overall, waste of money and time, choose someone else.
Best professor ever! Very chill & fun to have. There is a quiz every week after a very chill lecture. He gives a study guide every week for the quizzes and the quizzes are made up of EXACTLY the questions on the study guides. Literally just memorize each study guide. Need book to fill out study guide. TAKE THIS CLASS! Trust me. do your work tho!
Prepare to do a lot of work. Stay on top of the work and you will pass not a hard class but there is a lot that goes into it. Quizzes, tests, paper, HW questions and research hours. He likes to play head games but he's chill. Keep on top of work submitted he lost one of my exams and didn't give credit to a few things but once reminded he fixed it.
Baker was a good professor in my opinion with dry dark humor many students didnt enjoy it, I did. He has lot of mixed reviews, it depends your effort within the class. There was a few exams, quizzes, 2 papers ( 1 he guides you through, the 2nd you can use a lot of the same templates) GO SEE HIM FOR HELP!! On Halloween I had a 68% passed with a B!!
I recommend taking Professor Baker he truly cares about his students and wants you to do well in the class. He is very understanding, I would definitely be taking Professor Baker in the future. There are 3 exams, lab assignments every week, and 1 paper. The workload is not heavy. AWESOME Professor ! TAKE HIM!
I took him last spring and he is a real gem. He has 3 exams which are taken from the chapter study questions he gives every week. I had his class once a week so the work was mostly independent but very straight forward. He had us do a book report that had a part due every other week. Overall he's a goofy teacher that makes class fun )
Doing this class online was easy because all we did were readings that are assigned online. The readings are fairly simple and there is quiz for each reading you do and if you understand it, it is easy. He also requires you to read a book and do a 2-page summary and commentary paper for each section that is due. Overall the class is easy.
Very easy class. Semester consists of reading one book (he gives you a few options to choose from) and weekly reading quizzes. If you read the assigned reading, the quizzes are super easy. For the book, you need to read the assigned chapters and write short summaries. That is the whole semester- it's super easy if you do your part. Just read LOL
DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS ONLINE. he provides no notes, study guide or feedback. every week you do a reading and take a quiz and then have to take 2 exams with no help from him whatsoever. u are doing 100% of the work alone with no help from him.
Do yourself a favor and do NOT take him. He does not provide any lectures or explanations on how to do assignments. Baker also gives everyone different instructions so its confusing and ends up affecting our grades. He is a horrible instructor and either needs to leave CSUF or not teach this course ever again. Just dont take him, trust me.
DON'T take his class online. It really is a waste of money. He doesn't provide any kind of recorded lecture, slides, etc. You basically teach yourself on the material using only the textbook. If you miss a quiz he is NOT understanding. If you do decide to take him beware, if you don't complete the final BRD, you'll fail even if you did ALL the rest
The professor & class was so-so. If youre looking for a prof to lecture/teach you about the subject keep looking! He only assigns chapters and a quiz to take each week. Youll also need to do book reviews every other week from a choice of 3 books. No lectures, audios, PPs, or extra credit given. Not a hard class but youll need to teach yourself
