Hey guys,

I'm trying to decide which PWR 2 to take. I've copy-pasted all the classes available for fall below and I was wondering if any of you took some of these classes and if you liked them or not, would advise other to take them, etc.

Thanks!

I took the one about the American West with Susan Wyle. It was okay, I might recommend it depending on what you're looking for in PWR. Are you looking for one that is easy? Or one that is interesting?

i'm looking for one that is easy.

thanks for responding!

Ah, someone after my own heart. I've heard good things about Zimmerman; a good friend of mine took PWR 2 from him and he never seemed too stressed out about anything, presentation was a breeze, if I recall correctly.

I've also heard people like Mediratta, but I think that might have been for PWR 1, and I'm not sure whether they liked the class or the prof, either.

thank you again!

and by easy, do you mean it's possible to get an A in? cuz that's what i mean.
