CollegeHe is one of the best professors in the department! He explains the material very well in his lectures and has a lot of knowledge. You can get a good grade as long as you study.
It was difficult to understand him sometimes during lecture because of his accent, but he is a very nice prof and very good at teaching the material as well. Lectures can be kind of difficult to follow sometimes, but the book is extremely helpful. Super generous exam curves, would take again if I could.
Great professor! Attending lectures is very very important as a couple midterm/final problems pop up from there. All hw is from the online textbook. Don't worry if you find yourself lost after lecture, just do the homework and then review the lecture notes and you'll be good. And he curves heavily at the end if you didn't do too well (i would know)
Extremely fair professor. No lecture notes / recordings so you should attend, and honestly I often left confused.. but homework was always doable and midterm and final were very similar. Midterm was out of 36 but curved to be out of 30, final was out of 110 but curved to be out of 100. 30% HW 30% midterm 40% final. Pretty sure curved at the end too
You can tell he really knows his stuff. His online lectures were kinda hard to follow but even then he was able to simplify literally every concept. He is legendary and I wish I could take every class with him. Easy grader too!
Underrated professor. While I didn't always understand what was happening in lecture (and it was somewhat disorganized), you can tell he really knows his stuff. I read the book most of the time and I was fine. Fair tests, generous grading, and he curved up at the end too!
