The only assignments are 7 module quizzes based off of the textbook reading and an attendance quiz. Module quizzes are 50 questions in 30 minutes, all multiple choice. Easy to do if you know the material.

Easy enough class, light workload but graded off very little things. Took online and the textbook wasn't necessary at all. Gives short time limits for tests though.

Comment:
Prof Weremchuk proved to be one of the toughest profs ever taken. Didn't expect such a topic as rock music to be so complex. Must be able to follow the chain of music influence from the 40s to modern day. Tests tough - graded on silly little things. Listening guides are the only things in the textbook you need to read.

Comment:
This class is easy as long as you read the modules before taking the quiz. He gives you 30 minutes to complete 50 questions because he DOESNT want you looking up the answers. Its easy to get an A on each quiz. You will NOT find quizlets which is annoying but just letting you know now. Also if you're into rock you get to learn about some cool ppl.

The entire class is just reading the modules and taking the quizzes. He makes it tougher with 50 questions in 30 minutes, but I've never run out of time and I got an A or B on every single quiz. Read the modules right before the quiz and keep it open for ctrl +F and you'll be fine.

The class basically consists of reading the modules and taking a quiz. The tough thing is that the quiz is 50 questions and you only get 30 minutes to answer all of the questions. If you want an A, you have to seriously study the material and know it all. You can get a B using shazam and ctrl + f on the modules to find the answers, but not an A

Comment:
not a difficult class once you recognize the pattern of questions asked. Only issue is 30min isn't enough for 60q and he says it's to prevent cheating but I think that inspires it more. Use the app shazam for audio questions and ctrl+f on the modules, read the chapters and you should end up with at least a high B low A. Better if you like music.

I took online which is really easy. All you need to do is read the module and take notes. If you take good notes the time limit isn't hard at all to finish in.

Ok, here's the thing, if you GENUINELY don't like or care for rock music, don't take this class. If you have a good amount of background knowledge on bands or the evolution of rock, you will pass with flying colors. All you really have to do is print out and thoroughly read his modules (the book is NOT NECESSARY). I've only gotten A's on his exams.

Okay so 7 quizzes, one dropped and 50 questions each and 30 mins. NO FINALS but if you don't like music like me DON'T TAKE IT, even though you are smart (i am a straight A student) this is hard because its bunch of music stuff , 5 questions are from the listening part you have a 25 sec audio clip . Made a B :(

It's Survey of Rock, pretty straight forward. 7 quizzes and he drops the lowest one. The only hard part is you have 30 minutes to answer 50 questions. Pretty ridiculous, but between his modules and Google it isn't bad. Definitely an easy B, but need to make sure you're ready for every quiz if you want an A.

The class really isn't as bad as everyone says. It's 7 quizzes and the lowest gets dropped. Treat the class as a normal in-class one and you'll do fine. Just keep rereading his modules since about 45/50 questions on each test come straight from it. 50 questions in 30 minutes for the tests. STUDY BEFORE and google the rest and you'll have time.

This course could be interesting, but the quizzes are not. They are your only grades, and you get 30 minutes to do 50 questions. If you don't read, you will not do good at all. Honestly, wouldn't take this class again. Wouldn't recommend

This class is actually really interesting if you're a fan of good music. There are only 7 quizzes, and the lowest quiz gets dropped. The only problem is that you are given 30 minutes to complete 50 questions, which doesn't seem logical. Just study! Overall, very cool online course that I highly recommend taking if you need a humanities credit.

The only grades in this class come from the quizzes. The quizzes are based on the modules. I read the modules and study them for hours. The quizzes are specific and almost impossible to complete in 30 minutes. Even after trying hard and studying I am struggling. Do not take.

horrible! Do not expect an easy A. I spent hours and hours, and days and days studying these modules, but the problem is that you only get 30 minutes to answer 50 questions! That is beyond ridiculous! I think that a minute per question is more appropriate. How does the school allow this to continue? Do yourself a favor and take something else!

There's only 7 quizzes and no midterm or final. He outlines enough info in the modules to get a low A. In the book you can answer the other very few questions he'll ask that he won't cover. 50 questions in 30 mins on each quiz so have the modules ready! I'd take this again, it had cool little facts about all of the bands I've heard everywhere.

As someone who loves music and is always willing to learn more about it, I really enjoyed this class. Each module is clearly outlined and corresponds to chapters in the textbook. There were 7 quizzes and the lowest gets dropped. Additionally, each quiz only tests you on two modules each time. Very easy to understand & also a very interesting course

Took this class online. Weremchuk is fine, but tests are really difficult. If you're not truly interested in rock history (I wrongly thought I was), don't take it. Most quiz questions are very specific, and I averaged low Bs and high Cs on quizzes after hours of studying. Course material is interesting, but tests make you think you know nothing
