A really great PSYC class- Oishi is super funny and makes the lectures actually interesting to attend. It's easy to get an A if you go to class and do the readings.

Oishi was really great. His lectures were pretty interesting as well as quite funny at time. The exams are not hard at all as long as you just review your notes.

I took this course in Spring 2010. It's a pretty straightforward class with interesting material, and Oishi is just the best. Recommended for non-majors who have a passing interest in psych; it's a fun way to learn a bit more about the field.

Oisha has been one of my top favorite professors at UVA thus far! He is awesome!! He is a lot of fun and the information he presents is really interesting. The textbook goes hand in hand with what he lectures on and there is a lot of information that you can relate to in everyday life, so it makes it even more interesting. This is definitely a class worth taking and I highly recommend it!! His tests aren't bad either and they are online. Oishi is great :)

This class is okay. He tries to make it interesting, but he's hard to understand. I struggled in the class after not doing well on the first test because the questions are almost ALL from the lectures. I ended up with a B with a bit of effort.

I loved this class and the teacher. He was very fun and the material was easy to understand. You need to read the chapter and go to class.
