Doug is the man. I was really pleased with his practical approach to the material (not trying to make things harder than they should be). His HW were great prep for quizzes, he kept the class at a great pace and always interesting. Recommended if you get the chance.

Great professor. Very clear and has great lecture slides. Attend lecture and take good notes, do the homework and you will be fine. Also go to his office hours he is really nice and helpful.

Great professor, one of the best I've had at UCSB. Explains everything very clearly and his exams are very fair.

6B is no joke, his tests were harder than Guruswamy's and he's not that great of a lecturer. The two midterms can be tricky and if you screw up badly on one of them you don't have a chance for an A. For us he made the final quite easy to boost our grades back up but this class is no joke.

Good teacher, explains things well especially during office hours. Don't do that many examples in class though. Tests are straightforward, he doesn't try to trick you.

I thought this guy would be great because he sub'd for 6A a few times and I liked the way he was teaching. WRONG. He just wastes 60% of lecture time doing demonstrations of things that mean nothing when it comes to taking the test. He gives almost NO practice problems, his lecture and HW assignments are 20 folds easier than the tests!No bueno
