Prerequisite: AK/AS/HH/SC/PSYC 1010 6.00 or AK/HH/PSYC 2410 6.00, with a minimum grade of C. Prerequisite or corequisite: One of AK/AS/HH/SC/PSYC 2020 6.00, AK/AS/HH/SC/PSYC 2021 3.00, AK/HH/PSYC 2510 3.00. NCR note: No credit will be retained for this course for students who have passed or are taking AK/AS/HH/SC/PSYC 3010 3.00 or AK/HH/PSYC 3180 3.00 (prior to Summer 2002).

Professor: Krista Phillips. Laid back prof, not so hard on this course compared to Personality. Study the definitions, concepts and lecture material and you should do well. Some questions are still tricky and the assignments are ridiculously easy but also ridiculously graded. Minor errors costs you quite a bit in grade loss. Lecture notes are provided in class. Big class.
