It only an easy because of the extra points he gives for attendance. It's hard because it sucks going to class everyday when the notes are on lecture, his tests are difficult, and materials that shape civilization is just a very dull subject. BUT you get the extra points, so if you attend class your B turns into an A...so it may be worth it, only at the end.

This class is ridiculously easy. I didn't have to do anything except show up and study the night before for the test. Take it if you can.

Wayy easy class. I didn't study for the first two tests, studied for the third, went to class, and got a B. I should've gotten an A, but whatever. He makes the class interesting, but there were some really dull days. Overall, I liked it. It's THE easy engineering class, and suggest it to anyone who needs to fullfill a science/technical elective. No homework, three tests, and he posts a ton of study material for them.

For the most part, engineering students take this class because it is easy and it meets a science elective. However, the class can be fairly interesting and Shiflet seems to really like what he is teaching. You can learn a bit of knowledge on a lot of topics with little effort. The class consist of only three multiple choice exams. Based on attendance, you can also gain a large amount of extra points on top of your exam scores. Highly recommended.

Really easy. Just go to class and study for the tests the night before and you'll be fine.

Course structure has changed. He no longer has different people come in every week, he just presents his own materials. He's a really interesting teacher and the class is super easy. Your grade is based mostly on attendance, although there are also a few tests. If you pay attention in class, you don't really need to study for the tests to do fine.

Class was a piece of cake. I've heard it's gotten harder, but I still bet it's a joke. I got over 100 and did minimal (and i really mean minimal) work.

This class is extremely easy. The structure is different professors come in and lecture on different topics. The test questions come from a question bank that's on toolkit (with all the answers). If you attend enough classes, you may be exempt from the last test. It's possible to learn a lot from the class. It just depends on how much effort you put into it.

SO EASY!
