Esdin vs. Phelan LS2

<p>Hi all,
I'm taking LS2 winter 11 and debating between taking Esdin or Phelan.
I've read the Bruinwalk reviews but I'm still conflicted.</p>

<p>I am looking to get feedback on these specific questions from students who have taken this course with either professor.</p>

<ol>
<li><p>How to get an A in their class</p></li>
<li><p>Advice about each professor's testing style</p></li>
<li><p>Can you please scan a midterm you took and forwarding it to me? (I'd like to get an idea of how they test us.)</p></li>
<li><p>If you have a friend who is also taking it winter quarter, I am looking for study partners who are serious about getting an A in this class.</p></li>
</ol>

<p><em>**If you personally can answer any one of these questions, I would be greatly appreciative.
*</em>*If you know someone who has already taken this class, please forward this post to them so they can give accurate feedback.</p>

<p>Thank you so much everyone and Happy Holidays!
:)</p>

<ol>
<li>Study beforehand and after each lecture, ask questions in class, and go to office hours.</li>
<li>Life science department don’t let students have their exams.</li>
</ol>

<p>If you took AP bio and did well, it’s not that bad. I for one slept through class and did well on the exams without learning much new material.</p>

<ol>
<li> Attempts to procure LS past exams will result in exterminatus of perpetrator.</li>
</ol>

<p>You can ask for past labs from people, though.</p>

<p>Bah. I’m taking it with Esdin simply because time will allow me to. We’ll wing it.</p>
