  • Super interesting course material, and the prof is very passionate and knowledgeable on the subject! The testing method he uses is kinda evil though... he gives you a (long) list of art + architecture to memorize the name and dates of, and then in the test, he gives you a handful of images, five minutes each, in which you have to write a GOOD visual analysis + context. And THEN he gives you 10 minutes each to write two comparisons. And THENN he gives you a random image that we didn't discuss in class, and you need to identify which era it's from and why. You also have to write a long ass final paper with very few guidelines... on second thought, I should've gone to office hours. Don't take…
