Good Lectures, midterms and finals were all very doable. Not too much homework.

Cool guy. On the first day he bragged ab a Reddit thread that said he was the best 10A prof and honestly, could be true. Dude knows his stuff and has a good sense of humor. as long you put in the time (go to CLAS and do a LOT of practice problems) you'll be fine.

GO TO CLAS! Do as many practice problems/tests as possible. Textbook not helpful; lecture also not helpful (for me). Heavy on teaching heavy calculus behind formulas when we weren't tested on them. You need solid background of basic calculus or you won't succeed. Section also helpful: went through problems similar to test problems.

I would definitely recommend taking 10A with him as the professor. Lectures could be confusing at times and the course is content heavy but he is great at explaining things and clearly has experience teaching the course. Take notes on textbook before lectures, go to CLAS, and do all the practice tests in advance and you will do well.

His lectures were a bit helpful, I did attend about 80% of them. He does explain things well but every lecture he has 28 slides for a 50 min class. Honestly only learned things through the CLAS resource website. would not recommend learning from TAs they don't know anything, rely on CLAS tutors they are amazing.

Econ 10A is unfortunately not taught to you by the professor but instead on your own time by reading the textbook and doing practice tests. Deschenes is a great professor, but the course content is impossible to teach via lecture only. I skipped lectures after midterm 1 and got an A. Most important: tests are fair, so you control your destiny.
