I think his past classes had the final online hence the high amount of A's received, but you basically had to go to class to understand the group theory we had on the final. I crammed it pretty late despite doing well on the two online midterms and didn't do great. Not attending class is luring but I would go anyway if you want an A. Lock in.

He is kind and a very easy grader. Take the class for an easy elective.

Honestly the class was a joke, we just used Rudin but the lectures were just him reading the theorems and telling us to go over the proofs on our own time. The homework was super easy and he gave up part way through the quarter and turned this into a 6A class. It was super easy but you won't be learning anything from any of his classes.
