If you want to boost your R score, TAKE HIS CLASS! There are 3 essays and a presentation and you barely need to attend class. Here is how to get a 90 doing minimal work. Step 1: Attend the lectures covering short stories and take notes of what he says. Step 2: After covering around 6-8 stories, he will post an assignment. You pick three stories and write a well-written essay using your notes from class. (BTW I never read the stories) Step 3: Go over your essay and he will tell you everything you need to change. No tests, or other HW it's that simple. For reference, I got 94 because he doesn't give 100% and I attended under 10 classes. GL

The class is laidback. You ONLY have readings for the 3 essays and one oral to do and no other assignment.
