## Student reviews

6 of 6 reviews, written by students who took the course.

- **2020-04** — If u r looking for a course where u don't have to do much, don't take it. Though he is very fair, if u work u'll get a good grade;)

- **2019-08** — 211 with Hans was a very easy course. Just do the exercises and you will be fine.

- **2019-08** — Logic with Hans is fun. And he's very helpful. We all had to put some effort in the course at some point. You can do well, and if you decide to take it I'm to ready offer my help in case you ever need it.

- **2019-08** — Classes are entertaining and he's good at presenting material in a very thought provoking way. Pat was easily the best phil professor I had (I did a phil minor). Also heads up, phil 211 doesn't count as a humanity (counts towards quantitative thought)

- **2019-08** — Hans is very easy-going and fair. He drops the lowest grade and the final is optional.

- **2019-08** — I rly liked Christopher L.Johns, he tells you that if you do what he expects from you then he won't mind putting u a high grade...but for me it was a bit too much work as for a humanity course...the great thing is that you'll simply get a grade you deserve;)
