The professor is very nice. If you can be involved with the material a 90+ is very possible

Nice course, you will feel it's a bit of a history course however. The instructor is a nice guy

You have to do the readings he gives you otherwise your papers won't make sense. Also, we asked him last semester what's his average in his classes and he said he doesn't know, because he does things differently in different semesters and courses. But honestly, he's not a harsh grader from what I saw last semester.

He's a nice teacher, and grades are good if you do the readings

- The question of evil (basically if God is good and all powerful why is there evil in the world?) - Religion and morality - Arguments proving the existence of God - Defining Religion - Life after Death For each topic, you read different texts, which expose different points of view and this is what is nice about the course, you see the different (sometimes opposing) ideas about one topic

We had two exams during the semester, a paper and a final exam. For the paper, he helps you a lot, you can show him several drafts and he will help you to edit it so that you end up getting a better grade. For all three exams, he posts a revision sheet a week before the exam date. This revision sheets contains key words and 5-6 essay questions. On the day of the exam, he will ask you to define 4 of the key terms and one of the essay questions will show up (no choice). In addition, you have a reading quiz every week but again he posts the questions before on moodle and it’s usually super easy (the grades are either 100 or 50 and it’s really difficult to get 50). In sum, there are no suprises with him, and if you prepare you can get extremely high grades. Note that he is a very nice person as well and that the topics discussed are really interesting.
