Copying and pasting my post from UoM general thread, as someone else has already asked about this subject. Also check out the Subject Reviews thread, there's 3 reviews on FFHP.

I did it as breadth in my first semester last year. I thought it was a fairly awful subject. There was a new lecturer almost every week so the subject felt disjointed, content was presented in a boring way, tutorials were okay but they didn't help with the final exam. As said in one of the subject reviews, this subject never gave an idea of how to answer questions, ie how much depth, what information was necessary.

The saving grace of this subject were the "forums" where a guest speaker gives a lecture on a particular area in their field. These were pretty interesting in my opinion and made writing a report about them quite easy.

The mid sem test was quite fair but the exam was a bit harder than expected and you'll be writing for the whole exam.
