hi guys! If anyone took 2102 with prof Jonasson can you pls let me know your experience and your how you did? I rlly need a 80 ywa this year and need to get a good mark in this class
Hi, I took the course last year. Overall, it's a pretty interesting course. For the assignment that's worth 20%, follow ALL the instructions the prof has on the syllabus. 100% is very doable.
Additionally, what I did was print the lecture notes the prof provides and staple them into a bundle. Then I highlighted the key ideas for each chapter/section. Make sure to use something (sticky notes, page markers, etc) that can help you distinguish where each chapter is in the bundle. I found that really helped with the final exam which is two essays you need to write in 24 hours. Going back to those highlighted notes saved me A LOT of time. I finished the course with a high 80.
Hi, thank you so much for your reply! These are rlly good tips for the class I’m overall pretty organized and keep up with all my classes so this shouldn’t be too bad then. Also I know you mentioned the exam was 24 hrs for you last year but on my syllabus this year it says it’s open book but only 2 hrs. So I’m a little worried about that but also since it’s only 2 hrs I’m hoping the questions will be easier. Thanks
Also for the final, I'm going to assume the professor may be doing things a bit differently this year, but I wouldn't worry too much about the different time-limit regardless.
The questions I received last year weren't very difficult. I'd just recommend you take some time at the start of the exam and go back to the lecture notes and see which of the questions the prof gives you on exam day have a lot of writing material in the notes, and select your questions based on that.
