extremely harsh grader, considers any materials outside of the confusing textbook and his dense lectures to be cheating. Assigns problems that one would expect to see in a graduate level course and gives little partial credit. Exams include topics we have never covered in class. I would rather take an extra quarter than take one of his courses

There's a reason no one came to his office hours. It shows how much this professor cares about his students; to be able to send an email in an attempt to discourage us for not coming to office hours that won't be worth a students time due the professors lack of character and professionalism during a mentally stressful time for students. Listen UCSB

My entire understanding of discrete math is thanks to the TA hard carrying us. Not a single person attended office hours (an email was sent out literally saying this), and the lectures were incredibly long and difficult to follow. Curved slightly at the end (after nobody got credit on a problem on the final), but the stress was NOT worth it.

His weekly lectures are almost four times longer than other professors, homework are literally impossible to get full credits on, and tests are graded so hard he would take off your points because you didn't write the word "if" pretty enough. On one problem in the final, nobody in the class received any credits, and he doesn't curve. Don't take him

Just don't take his class. I hate myself and math

My experience in fall with this professor was the worst in my academic career. As a math major, I was always motivated to work and learn. But after taking his course, I can say that this professors teaching is literal dogwater. Neglects students and their personal problems during the pandemic. If tenure was a thing for him, Id pay him to depart.
