EVSC 2010

Don't be fooled by this class!!!! Everyone says its an easy A but if you're not great at science, it is pretty difficult. Things like phase diagrams can be really difficult if you haven't seen or worked with them before. Plus, the fact that everything seems pretty basic on the surface is very discouraging, especially given the difficulty of the exams. The one positive thing is that you get bonus points for going to class, just about the only thing that saves all of the non-science people like me.

easy to get a 90 or higher on each test, just study a few days before and try to attend a majority of the lectures. overall, its a great class.

Take this class! It's a guaranteed easy A, especially for science majors. You can miss up to 4 classes and still get 30 extra credit points. Just pay attention in class, do the practice tests (no need to do the reading), and make the time to go to office hours to ask any questions before each exam (there are 4 and no final). Not to mention Professor Shiflet is a great and interesting professor worth getting to know!

Easy, straightforward class. Took it for a GPA booster. Material can be mildly interesting at times.

While it has gotten more difficult in recent years, it is still a relatively easy class. The material isn't the most interesting, but it can be pretty practical sometimes. Pretty much no reading until right before the exams. If you go to class, get your extra points, and read the notes, you'll be fine.

Best class ever, so easy take it. Some work prior to tests, but just come to class take fairly decent notes and study the shizz out of them before tests and you'll be fine.

Classes are very fun and interesting. You learn different things you never would have thought of! Professor Shiflet knows the material very well. He tries to not bore the class by integrating materials that are related to your everyday lives! 3 exams, no final. Take the class!

Grading is generous and the material is actually pretty interesting.

Shiflet is great! Class is optional but if you miss 4 or less you get 30 bonus points, and I'd recommend going to make sure you understand the topics, especially if you're not a science/engineering person. The material isn't that inter-connected but he makes it interesting with lots of videos. He's really helpful if you have questions. Some effort is required, but if you're looking for an easy A, this is the class for you.
