    Elie Abdo is one of the best professors I have ever had. Elie's lectures are clear and enjoyable. The homework is extremely fair and graded on completion, and going to office hours makes homework a breeze. Tests are exactly as in the study guide, and Elie ensures you know the material. Lecture notes are posted online.

    I think ill never have a better teacher again no joke. Completely accesible from outside of class, made it easy to learn and understand a hard topic.

    math6b . Abdo E 5 Months Ago

    The best math professor I have ever had at UCSB. His lectures are very easy to follow and understand although the second unit was a lot more difficult than the first. Attendance was not mandatory for both section and lecture. There was only two tests: a midterm and a final, which was on week 10 instead of finals week. Weekly homework was good.
