Great professor. I like the way she got the class involved with examples, videos, exercises, games, etc - all were excellent memory aids for me. In the hands of a lessor professor, this could have been incredibly boring class, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. To get an A you need to attend, listen, take notes, & study well (study guides provided).

Try to go to every class because there are 4 random in-class assignments and 1 random one is graded and it's worth a quiz grade so yeah hurts your grade if you missed it.

Psychology with Prof. Pham is one of those classes that you add to balance out the harder ones in your schedule. Not much is required outside of class to get an A. All you need to do is take notes on the PP and study terms/facts 1-2 days before exams. Attendance is important because after 3 absences you begin to lose points. Extra credit available.

Super Easy! Don't waste money buying the book, you don't need it. Never opened my textbook once the whole semester. You don't really need to take notes in this class if you pay attention because the writing assignments are group and the tests are just memorizing terms and definitions. Do honors if you're doing honors program, heard it wasn't hard.

If you've taken psychology before in high school, then this class will be a breeze. Yes, take notes on key terms and study, but it's more about common sense when it comes to the tests and multiple choice. She gives a paper to review all the key terms before an exam and it helps a lot. I used quizlet to study definitions and that's how I passed.
