Review #1 / Course: CM 2131 / Instructor: KINCHEN D
Goes on a 7 point grading scale (93-100= A). Contradicts himself from his notes to test questions sometimes. Can be pretty humorous with some of the information he provides that is not relevant to the subject matter. Overall should be an easy A.

Kinchen is consise, but make sure to attend class and don't miss the paint coverage problem on the 2nd test because it is worth 15 points and will cause you to get a B in the class when you deserve an A
