CollegeProfessor Lang is an amazing professor! Go to his lectures, which are very engaging, and sections. Majority of grade is the exams but he is a fair tester and provides great practice. The project is on your own so DON'T PUT IT OFF TIL THE LAST WEEK. If you go to lectures and sections and are an active participant you will be successful in the class.
Poorly made lectures, poorly made textbook which he wrote and makes you pay for (side hustle), useless section which is always rushed, midterm miles harder than practice midterm. He seems nice but I hated this class. I took AP macro and this is my worst grade at ucsb.
great professor who cares about his students. very test heavy with only one midterm and a final being 75% of the grade but tests are fair if you put in the effort. not a lot of homework and lectures are interesting. definitely take advantage of office hours
Super nice professor and really personable. His tests are heavily weighted and can be tricky. He uses a Platform called Tophat that costs money.
He's a funny dude and enthusiastic about the material. I'm kind of biased because I don't personally like the subject. Pretty easy class though, but you have to attend lectures to answer the TopHat questions for credit. TopHat and the grading criteria were kind of confusing.
Super enthusiastic professor and a great lecturer. He explained complicated topics really well and helped me truly understand the course. The bad reviews on here are mainly because of people salty about their grade— this course and the material in it are simply hard.
