Fall 2021 - Grading: 4 persuasive essays 400 word min (given at the beginning of quarter and due at the end), pick 6 essay question for midterm (600 word min), pick 5 essay questions for final (3 short responses and two long). The class was pretty easy, all information was on the slides and in the readings (assigned at least two weekly about 12-26 pages). Professor Armstrong is very nice and wants his students to be engaged in class the TA I had was a joke but the class was fairly easy so not a big deal. Just keep up and begin essay questions early and you should be fine
