Cons: Only a midterm, a paper, and a final. TA's grade the papers and they are always due at the same time as the tests. Terrible lecturer...I went to every class and fell asleep in the front row! She is unorganized and scattered and the class reflects this.
Outside reading is discussed in depth in recitation but not in lecture, which can often be confusing. Material can be interesting but the class is less of a politics class and almost more of a history class...the entire first quarter is spent on history and then she attempts to cram the politics of 10 LA countries into the last quarter. She often bunches countries together when discussing common trends which can be confusing but sometime helpful. Rarely learned about the politics within the countries itself (the course subject was too broad). The tests are not extremely difficult but start the papers early because they are right around test time.
Cons: She is not incredibly charismatic one-on-one. If you have questions or concerns, go to the TA's first. They are incredibly helpful.
