Do you have any recommendations of these classes to take during the summer sessions?

Thanks

i've found that all summer courses are easier than their academic year counterparts... just chose whatever most interests you

"SouthPaW12:No matter what you wrote, he thought it was wrong. I have excelled in writing, but his formats are so off the wall you'll never figure it out. Complete BS assignments. REQUIRES 4+ summaries and grades ONE. The rest? Waste of your time. Seriously, this class just hands out frustration. This guy thinks he is the Quran. He thinks he knows the Middle East inside and out. He loves to knock Western culture and bomb on us for "stereotyping" that culture. His writing and reading assignments require INSANE amounts of hours and he refuses to budge on his strict writing standards. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. "

it sounds like it would be bad any time

I'm taking that now as a DE course. I'm not enjoying it all too much. He seems to be a stickler for format and how you integrate your sources, blah blah blah. More of an english class than history.

once you get the format thing down, it becomes a lot easier. it was a pain at first because i dont write papers like he likes them, but if you use his website and respond to his feedback your grade should improve. i was use to writing english papers, he wants history papers.

i was also taking that at the same time as hi 270, which probably made it seem 10000x better too.

Hope you're right. Luckily, I'm not alone right now. No one make an A on the first paper.
