  • I loved this course it's super cool if you are into hydrology/ water science. The lectures can feel kind of long, but the textbook is very interesting. Follow the study guide and make sure you can answer every question, you will get at least an 80 on the midterms and exam.

  • If you read the study guides you will do well on the tests. The tests are very fair, the assignments can be tedious but are very interesting.
