4.5

Course 1: English 1B
How difficult is the material? Probably a dead 5 inbetween easy and hard.
How well is the material presented? Very clearly, like an 8/10.
How intuitive is the material? Extremely intuitive, 9/10.

Based on my ratings I probably should just read and practice and do all my work and I'll do fine.

Course 2: Sex, Drugs, Rock & Roll
How difficult is the material? Like a four on the difficult.
How well is the material presented? Pretty well, 7/10
How intuitive or formal is the material? Come on, totally intuitive 10/10.

My study strategy involves listening to the music more. My disdain for the 1950s cost me a lot of points in that test.
