Great guy, however his lectures were hard to follow, so after the second midterm I just stopped going. The class overall was very easy but the section quizzes were very hard. He would either make them ridiculously difficult or the material would straight up just not be what we're learning in lecture. Average of 4/10 on quizzes but ended with an A.

Prof Schley is very passionate about the material he teaches. It took a while for me to get used to his style of teaching as it is very conceptual. Math 6A builds on itself and staying on top of the material is important. Weekly quizzes were difficult and on pretty specific topics but they were only 10% of the grade.

Mr. Schley was a good teacher and was very passionate about his lectures. He always tried to explain the complicated concepts in compressed ways and was very good about answering questions during lectures. That being said, the course material itself is quite complicated, so make good use of him, TAs and CLAS help! Allows index cards on exams!

The lectures were really good and helped explain material in a very intuitive way. The weekly section quizzes were way too hard, and not completely the same concepts that we learned in lecture. Midterms and finals were just like the practice problems he provides, and there aren't many surprises. Nice guy who genuinely wants students to succeed.

Professor Schley does a great job at teaching Math 6A since he always tries to explain the abstract concepts in the most simplest ways he can, and so it makes the course a lot more easier to digest. My only complaint would be the weekly section quizzes as they are unnecessarily difficult and test obscure/niche topics from section.

We had two midterms and a final that were pretty similar to the practice we were given however, we had really hard weekly quizzes in section. They curved them at the end because everyone was failing them and it only counted as 10% of the grade. The professor is super nice and the class is lecture heavy however I did a lot of learning on my own.

Nice guy. Lectures heavily focus on concepts and intuition which is why most people find them bad or hard to understand. Personally I did not attend much lecture due to the triviality of the material in Math 6A, but I could see them being very good in a more difficult class. Schley is very caring and understanding, he dropped low quiz scores.

Professor Schley is very passionate and I've taken and enjoyed his classes before. His lectures can get off topic but I feel like he's taught me a lot, and his exams are very reasonable (exactly what you studied) and he allows notecards/cheat sheets on exams. If you keep up with the lectures and homework and study well you'll excel in his class.

His class is so easy; you just need to do the homework, understand his practice exam, and go to the section to take the quiz. Some of the quizzes are actually the same questions from the midterms and final. After that, you are good to get an A+.

He didn't curve the class but offered extra credit pretty generously. The final was difficult considering it was 70% on material that he rushed to teach on week 9. Still, he's very friendly when answering questions. 6A is difficult but made the experience *mostly* pain free. Good luck!

He's a really sweet guy. Lectures were kinda disorganized with many mistakes in the slides--something he chalked up to lack of prep time. Tests were straightforward though and not a problem. CLAS with Ziqi was fantastic. Homework was very reasonable. Overall a fine class but lectures were the weakest point. 20% HW, 10 quizzes, 30 midterm, 40 final

Schley is a super nice and understanding guy. As a teacher, he is very intuitive and tries really hard although sometimes his lectures are a bit unorganized. His tests are pretty straightforward w/o weird curveballs.

Great guy, you can talk with him for hours outside of class. Lectures aren't anything special.

When going to office hours he helps decently. I will say though Academically I went to CLAS (Which honestly without that I would not have passed) everyday for 2 hrs to help me study and do the homework. Overall sweet guy but not the best teacher.

Look, will he be late to your 8 am, Yes. Will you not understand what's going on, Yes. Will you learn from lecture, maybe? Will lecture be a good use of time, probably not. But the guy is very nice and tries to be funny. He brought our whole class donuts to apologize for being late one time, and played his guitar for us when we do well on tests.

Nice guy, not a great professor. He spends way too much time focusing on simple problems we learned in kindergarten and skips over things we actually need to know. He shows up late and then goes on random tangents completely unrelated to math. If you have to take this class, get a different professor or wait until next quarter.

shows up 10 minuites late and doesnt get through most the topics

His math website is more about self-serving gimmick rather than a sincere, student-centered effort, because we don't see values in doing the online practice(handouts are better), there aren't many helpful problems, it appears he just wants to show off he can make the basic website rather than providing comprehensive review prep for the students.

Schley is a nice guy but he is just not good as a professor. He spends 90% of lecture talking about random things like movies, his website, and whatever else. The tests are based on the lectures and homework but he throws in something new that wasn't mentioned in lecture. The only good thing is that you are guaranteed a B if you try. +Free textbook

just don't. he is so unorganized and basically sets u up for failure. don't take this class if u value ur life

Don't take him you'll hate life. avoid

Not sure why he's rated this low...Prof Schley was an okay and chill professor. His handouts, practice exams, and quizzes were pretty helpful for preparing for the exams.

He's a nice person but don't take his class. Very disorganized lectures. I may not matter that if there's no section quizzes about random contents. You may be tested on the materials you learned yesterday or from two weeks ago…And the quizzes worth 10%of the whole grades! The materials are not that hard but Dr. Schley made everything confusing.

Cannot lecture. Often talks about how he spent a large amount of time debugging or trying to set something up on the practice problem website. There is almost 0 need to create a website for it when you can create a PDF document containing the same questions and answers... I'm also sure Cursor could have one-shotted the website on its own.
