The class seems like it should be relatively easy because professor Warren gives you a review sheet with everything you need to know about each test on it, however Nauman graded the tests ridiculously hard and makes the class way more difficult than it should be. However if you are able to get a TA that isnt extremely picky on the tests, then the class is actually very interesting.

This class is retarded, the lectures consist of her speaking with no powerpoint slides for you to keep up with the notes and you're not allowed to have your laptop out to take notes. On top of that Nathan's grading of exams is fucking rediculous. If you're looking for an easy humanity DO NOT TAKE THIS.

Professor Warren is genuinely interested in the subject material as well as the success of her students. She is very accommodating for her students. I'm not interested in religion or history, but the class wasn't that bad. Warren provides test reviews for each test so if you do and study those, you're good. Also Nathan was really nice and knew what he was talking about.

Professor Warren is amazing! I love her lectures. They are very thorough and interesting. She goes kinda fast at times so it can be hard to keep up while taking notes. Depending on your TA you may be able to get away with skimping on the readings; mine focused on the primary sources because the others tended to be on subjects we were talking about in class. The two tests and final involve IDs of terms, IDs of quotes, and an essay question. You are given a review sheet ahead of time with everything that will be on the exam plus a little extra (so you don't know which of the terms, etc will be on the exam but you know they will be from the ones on the review sheet). I would definitely recommend taking this class, just make sure you get a good TA.

This class was one of the easiest I've taken at UVA but I found it really interesting and not boring. I'd recommend going to class because she distills all the readings for you, and then you don't have to do the readings. The tests were taken straight from the study guide, which was taken straight from the course. So if you go to class and study what is on the study guide - 3 terms, 2 short answer, 1 essay appear on the test - you will definitely be getting a good grade.

one of the easiest classes i have ever taken, you don't even need to go to class because her test study guides have everything you need to know on them!

Professor Warren is an engaging lecturer and coming from a Buddhist(ish) family, it was really interesting to learn about the origins of Christianity, Judaism and Islam. Midterms are easy, just term IDs and essays.

Ben Maton is a cool TA, very helpful in exam review and leads a good discussion.

Professor Warren is a great teacher and is really interested in what she teaches/makes the class interesting for the students. There is a study guide for the mid-term and final so the class is not too challenging, but enjoyable.

Very interesting class, and Professor Warren is a great lecturer. Because she's so passionate about the subject, going to class is actually fun. Just make sure to take the study guides seriously when you get them. This class does a great job of presenting the history of the major Western religions. Also, Ben did a great job as a TA.

The class is relatively slow even though professor warren is very enthusiastic about the topic. The readings are not really even needed. There are two midterms and a final, but for each she gives you a study guide. Be careful her grading is very nit-picky and you have to memorize certain specific things about each thing. My TA Ben Maton was very nice and helpful.
