Review #1 / Course: PHIL 1021 / Instructor: BARBER T
He basically teaches the test. Take the notes he gives, memorize them 30 minutes before each test or quiz, and make an A. His is a good man as well. Holds his office hours in the quad (which is pretty bad@ss).

Review #2 / Course: PHIL 1021 / Instructor: BARBER T
This is the easiest/best "math" (yes, it counts as a math credit) course ever. It also does help that Barber is the the most awesome professor at LSU. This old man's weird humor will have you in stitches. The material is great.

Barber is great (worth the night class)! He makes logic simple, and tests are straightforward. Good preparation for LSAT thinking skills.

Barber is really funny. Go to class everyday and you'll get an A. The book is confusing, but he clears things up. He's really easy on grading too.

Review #8 / Course: PHIL 1021 / Instructor: BARBER T
Whether you need that 3 hour math, or are a PHIL major, take Barber. One of the most thorough and lucid professors I've had. The tests reflect the material he covers 100%, so you never have to worry that you'll waste time studying. Barber's great.
