CollegeBe careful with grading. The course content itself is not impossible, but the grading is very strict and often focuses on small technical details. Homework solutions are not very helpful for understanding expectations. There are several quizzes (including T/F questions), and none of the lowest scores are dropped, which adds pressure.
Run! TA tough grader, graded on small little things. The answer of the homework is not helpful at all. Three quizzes with TF questions and none of the lowest got dropped. No practice for the midterm and final. Although the test look the same, your score will be reduced unexpectedly by the tough TA. Be careful with his TA JK.

Not as much homework as other similar UD math courses and he really tried to make sure people understood the material/proofs during lecture. Posted high quality LaTeX notes he typed up himself on Canvas which reviewed everything covered during lectures. Exams were straightforward and easy. An outstanding prof in the math dept.
Lecture and section attendance not mandatory but both super helpful. Only like one homework a week. Class is only graded on homework, 2 midterms, and the final. He was really good at explaining stuff in lecture so not much studying is needed outside of lecture and section. He's also really helpful during office hours.
Such a great prof!! One of my fav professors in the department. Does a good job lecturing and genuinely cares abt his students. Your grade is distributed among several categories (homework, section quizzes, and exams), which is really helpful. Exams were very fair.
