<p>There is pretty much NOTHING on this professor, and very little on the course. I've checked ninjacourses, courserank, and ratemyprof.</p>
<p>Can anyone tell me anything about it, like difficulty, courseload, grade distribution, etc?</p>
<p>I’m in the same situation. -.-</p>
<p>I took it last spring. Some parts were reasonably interesting, especially juxtaposed with my other very technical classes. The grading is completely arbitrary, though. The only comment my GSI wrote on both of my papers was “Good work” and yet he gave me an A- on both of them (A- in class). Not too difficult, but it will come down to your GSI in terms of your final grade.</p>
<p>Biolsi himself is a nice guy and a decent lecturer.</p>
<p>Are there a lot of readings in the class? How are the exams? Are they lecture based? Thank you for your reply, hmmm. 
I really appreciate it!</p>
