This class was very interesting but also difficult. Brunjes is very specific and can take one little sentence out of the book to put on the exams. Read carefully, take specific notes, and go to the lectures. The class is definitely worthwhile though, I loved it.

the class is very good. Brunjes is an awesome teacher, he doesn't give notes on the powerpoint but just teaches you outloud.
This class is very interesting and the professor is always enthusiastic.
Good deal of information, but worthwhile
Tests are incredibly hard, but the material is very interesting
This is easily my favorite class at UVA so far. I am a science oriented person though...
Yea the tests are hard, but as long as you do the practice tests you know exactly what to expect. Brunjes is the man...
great class-- Brunjes is a very engaging lecturer with a good sense of humor. Be sure to read the book and review your notes because tests can get really specific and difficult
This is a tough class, but definitely worth it. Brunjes is a great lecturer; even when the material can get kind of boring, he'll insert the occasional joke here and there to keep you awake. Tests are kind of tricky and really test your knowledge (he actually uses the "none of the above" answer choice relatively often on his questions) but if you do the reading and go to lecture you should be fine. Highly recommended; this man made me want to be a neuroscience major.
This is a very hard class... it requires a lot of reading and the tests are hard. Don't take it unless you have to!
