Basically study 4 definitions before the tests, and all the study guides would be the same as the test. Not the best lecturer, but hilarious, come to class if you want to have a fun time, cause he makes jokes every 5 minutes. Special hw are hard but just ask your TA. got 6,7 for the 2 midterm, but 9.75/10 for final, end up with an A. 50% for final.

Terrible lectures but tests are similar to practice tests so study those

Horrible in lectures, but tests are very very similar to practice tests, so if you do the practice tests a bunch of times you're guaranteed to do well on his tests. His tests have definitions, but they come from a small pool that you can figure out after seeing the first definition. You hav self-teach yourself, but no homework + curves the class.

Professor Akemann served our class as a volunteer teacher because the school couldn't find anyone to teach us. Although grateful that he stepped into this position, he was the worst math teacher I've ever had. I think he is a very sweet guy but just not a good teacher what so ever. Tests are very difficult, highly do not recommend

Very unclear lectures, I felt like going to them made me feel more confused. Midterms were relatively difficult but with hours of preparation they were doable. DO NOT RECCOMEND AVOID IF YOU CAN.

Avoid taking this course at all costs. The professor's teaching style is extremely unorganized, with no syllabus or clear expectations. Rely on study tools like unstuck ai, ChatGPT, and open courses to make up for the lack of in-class support.

No syllabus No ppt No answer to homework VERY unorganized lecture just reading textbook Avoid him

No syallbus provided

No syllabus provided for the course; not even sure if that's legal. Throughout the entire quarter, there hasn't been a single instance of the professor presenting a rigorous proof. No solutions to weekly homework sets. No midterm, so no idea on what to expect on the final that's worth 50%. Overall the most unorganized course I've taken all my life.

THE WORST professor... If you are desperate enough to take his course due to course schedule like me, be prepared to spend a huge ton of extra time in Math Lab, TA office hour, and open courses by other universities, because his instructional approach falls SIGNIFICANTLY short.

This class is near impossible. There is no syllabus provided, little to no examples in class, and the homework answers are never gone over. The final is also worth 50%

Prof. Akemann seems like a good person, but as a professor his class is impossible. He gives hours of homework without ever going over examples in class, he doesn't lecture he just reads the textbook, and he expects you to understand complex proofs you've never seen before. It's better to avoid him at all costs and take the class with anyone else
