I am excited about the class, but I hope the professor is better than my last Psych professor... the thing that drives me crazy about these pre-nursing classes is that sometimes, specifically my last Psych teacher, not only requires you to know everything in lecture but also requires you to know the material in the book, chapter to chapter. Basically, she never told us what exactly was going to be on the test or not, which is cool, really I understand. It's college and this school is supposed to be "above" University Level of difficulty, so they say and in college you're expected to know the required material, any means necassary. But what sucks about it is, that I have to memorize all of these chapters (I'm talking like 7-12 for one test) for a subject that has nothing to due with my Major and intended career. Plus, I only got an A- in that Psych class, so I am digressing, lol!
There are some forms of Psychology in my field, of course and Abnormal Psychology will hit those forms more so than the other Pysch class but do I really need to know that B.F. Skinner was a behaviorlist? Or that Carl Rogers was a humanistic psychologist? No, I do not and once again, I regress.
/end rant.
