Kind of difficult for an intro class, it's absolutely necessary to go to class and take good notes. There's generally 1 or 2 chapters to read a week, and he uses material from the reading that he may not go over in class on the tests. So be prepared. Just STUDY for these tests and you'll be fine, awesome curve and you can drop the lowest test grade. Cumulative final sucks though.

Really good lecturer. Make sure to read the book, he takes questions straight from it. Enjoyable, funny guy, makes the lecture fun to go to. The tests are not easy, but are doable.

Hilarious and very passionate professor, really works to make material interesting. There are three tests (lowest dropped) and a final. Tests are hard, really have to pay attention to collect minute details. All in all, loved Willingham but the class was just ok.

Willingham is very funny, a good prof and likeable person but I would never take this class again. I've learned a lot, but my grade doesn't reflect that. Sometimes on the tests you see none of the answers available in the multiple choice and sometimes you see two that could be the right answer. It's very tricky! And the final was cumulative; without a doubt the most stressful exam I had. I would either wait or simply avoid taking this class, otherwise, prepare to read the entire textbook and work really hard.

Professor Willingham is hilarious and makes a pretty uninteresting subject very fun. The tests are somewhat difficult, but he drops the lowest one. He wrote the textbook, so it is easy to read and really reinforces his lectures.

Willingham is a great professor. He is funny and knows the topic well. I personally did not find the subject matter all that interesting. The midterms are very detailed to pay attention in class and do the readings.

Meh. Willingham is funny, but it's the same joke over and over again. Interesting subject matter, but that's about it. Study hard.

This class was a great class, and actually got me interested in psychology as a minor. I would definitely recommend taking it. The tests are difficult, but lectures are great.

Professor Willingham is a very good and entertaining professor. The tests, however, can be challenging.

fascinating material taught by a pleasant, knowledgeable professor. expect more work than typical intro level course.
