PHL275 is a good course, however it's actually somewhat difficult honestly. Keeping up with the readings and paying attention in class is a must, and you would need to take full advantage of the tutorials. It's not impossible, but you'll need to be attentive in it to get it. The workload isn't that bad—it had 2 argument summaries, a final paper, and a final exam (not in-person), so not too bad if you stay on top of it. Very cool course though, I loved learning about all of the different ethical theories and how it might apply to real-world situations.
