Comment:
Grade is made up of only four exams and they are very difficult. Although he's funny and personable, the class is very dry and sometimes difficult to sit through. If you know someone who has taken the class before I highly recommend asking them to help you study or if you could borrow their notes/exams.

Comment:
Exams in this class are extremely hard and you are tested on irrelevant information that was not presented in lecture or prompted to read in the book. I would highly recommend taking another professor for this class if you want to pass. Got a C in this class while getting an A in a higher level class similar to this one with a different professor.

He's a really nice guy and takes his time discussing each slide in his lecture. It's a lot of material to learn but he does a decent job. Class was based on 3 exam grades ONLY.

Incredibly intelligent, yet clear. He understands that you're a student, you're learning, you're not going to understand every concept. I've only taken senior seminar with him, and it was definitely the most intensive and demanding course I've taken. Nevertheless, with hard work on my part, he never criticized. Also, he's hilarious!

He is incredibly bright and obviously knows what he is talking about. The content of the course is difficult, but if you are willing to put in the time and effort Alan will most certainly help you.

Overall, Prof. Rosenwasser is a good teacher. Very interesting class, you learn a lot cool stuff. 4 exams almost completely over lecture/powerpoint material. Study and know the material well if you expect a good grade.

Great class, pretty interesting stuff. The book is only to backup the material from class so you just need to know his powerpoints and what he says in class. Tests are mostly multiple choice. I took it for the biological psych requirement for the major and it was worth it.

Not very helpful answering questions...but you shouldn't have many because he clearly explains concepts and states knowledge required for exams. Overall easy class.

He's my advisor but doesn't offer that much good advice. I just keep him around if I need a signature or something.

Nice guy, but seems rather... insecure? He definitely knows his stuff, though, and doesn't waste much time w/ stupid people. I did well and he recognized me for it which I found very nice. Recommend if you're at least half intelligent.

Knew his stuff but didn't answer questions very clear. He didn't really stress the important stuff. Plus, his tests were killers!
