3B is a hard class but it's not his fault and he's pretty accommodating too. Definitely read the textbook sections he mentions to reinforce lecture material and fill in gaps. He emphasizes proofs over examples but it's because he wants to build your intuition. Practice exams are very similar to the actual exams so study those and you should be good

I would definitely take this class again because he gives extra credit and allows make-up exams. As long as you talk to him, he will understand your concern and try to fix it. One thing I like about him is that he gives a big curve, so everyone can pass his class, so even if you don't do well on the final, you can still pass.

Lectures relied on ~2 overly complicated examples per class that did a poor job of conveying the material. The first midterm felt unrelated to what was taught and averaged a 50. Exams were not curved. The answer key to the final study guide was released at 12:35 am the day of the exam, and the exam was brutal. I felt set up to fail.

Expect to self-teach. Canvas is blank, missing lectures means you miss all material and no practice at all. Lectures require an intense amount of note taking for no reason. He drops practice exams very late to the exam dates and solutions shortly after. At least he gives a generous curve.
