Mr. Rowland is an amazing teacher who, unlike other teachers, genuinely wants you to get an A in his class. The only thing you have to do in return is to be respectful and do your work. Later in the semester, in order to guarantee that A, he'll give you projects worth 400% major grade. As long as you do those and get an average of about 60-70 on the quizzes you'll do fine. Finally, DO NOT POKE THE BEAR; if provoked, Mr. Rowland will make your class infinitely harder.
Study, and do your homework.
