This class is very fair - the content of the lectures and practice exams will definitely prepare you for the tests. I even found the homeworks a little more difficult than the tests were. He doesn't pull any tricks and he's helpful during office hours. He also gives you an index card for the midterms and final.
Love Porter, TAKE HIM. Impossible to fail the class as long as you do all the homework and show up to the discussion section. He's a very kind professor and cares for his students. I'm not good at math but also had him for 34 A, and did well.
The content itself has a steep learning curve, but his expectations are clear and his exams are reasonable. Homeworks are long and quite difficult, but make sure not to rush through them since they are helpful and graded on correctness.
Pretty boring lecture to have at 8 in the morning, but the exams are pretty identical to the practice exams and problems he gives you. Very fair guy, easy class.
