I wouldn't say he's too textbook oriented, nor a hard marker. I mean obviously you have to read the textbook, but he does filter the important shit out for the in-class powerpoint slides that he posts online. As for marking, he's really chill. He just wants to see your understanding of the content. Other than the written content on exams and a group project (choose your partners CAREFULLY), there's nothing else that he really marks.

So yeah, if you want to get an A, all you really have to do is read the textbook chapter before he goes over it in class. I personally don't do this because I'm a lazy fuck, but for many, it'll help solidify certain concepts and vocabulary.

I'm not sure if it's because I have the mindset for this class, but I literally studied only three hours for the last midterm, and got an A.

He must have eased up because when I took it, I was one of 3 A-s in his class. And that was the highest mark sadly. He takes his midterm questions from the textbook worded exactly.

O and, definitely screen the English teachers at Langara for most are awful. DO NOT TAKE KUBICEK

I'll probably end up failing, lol.

Razor Ramon HG 03-31-2011 12:59 AM

I heard Mandarin is pretty easy. If you took any sort of Chinese school before, you should do fine.

English 1127 is gonna be the tough one.. Which prof are you guys taking?

I bet this is the record breaking time for most posts in the Langara thread.

sexyaccord 03-31-2011 10:17 PM

isn't there a picket going on with the teachers union at langara?

TOS'd 03-31-2011 10:21 PM

Yea, they stopped me at the parking gate to give me a piece of paper and to tell me classes have not been affected.

Bryan actually looks like he likes his job and he actually goes the extra mile to make his classes interesting. Sure his sense of "entertainment" to keep the class's attention is very "immature" but he's better than the other profs that just read slides off the screen without any sort of life in the lectures. I found it amazing how he can make such a dry subject turn into a not so dry lecture. I mean its boring but you'll never fall asleep in his lectures.

I just like the fact that he goes the extra mile in his lectures and his labs.
Easy GPA booster indeed.

TOS'd 03-31-2011 11:29 PM

BTW CPSC 1000 = BCAP 1200

I already took bcap 1200, so no cpsc for me =[

Sure let me know, I'm waiting on a schedule from my friend.

Since right now, it only costs me $3 for the day, but I might want to stay a little later or a little before my class. I'll let you know.
