Easy class, 1 WebWork a week, midterms and final were simple and similar to lecture problems. Take this prof if you can, he walks you through 6B and gives a formula sheet on exams

I went to maybe 3 lectures but his slides were useful. I did not like the way he explained, he overcomplicated stuff that did not need to be but he does go over every step pretty okay. As long as you study you will do good in the class

Definitely recommend taking Professor Kumar if you get the chance! His lectures are very clear and he provides a lot of examples. He posts a guided study before each exam which helps a lot with studying!

His lectures are incredibly good; he explains concepts super clearly and never skips steps that could cause confusion. Hw and tests are reasonable. He also provides a ton of review material before each exam. Overall a great experience.

I completely failed the first midterm, but his grading criteria is lowkey clutch because I got a 94 on the second one and I'm about to take the final next week. He explains thing hella clearly and is probably the best math prof I've had in a while. Tests are fair as long as you do the review and review your notes a couple times.

Professor Kumar provided an excellent introduction to mathematical proofs. The lectures were well-structured, engaging, and informative. There was weekly homework, two midterms, and a cumulative final. He was helpful during office hours and after lectures to answer questions. Highly recommend.

Professor Kumar is the GOAT. His lectures were good and I liked his pace. He's very flexible and wants students to succeed. Not that the material is easy -- grade ultimately depends on the working ur willing to do. But Kumar's grading is clear and exams are straightforward. Would take again.

Kumar's notes were very clear and the class was very well organized. office hour was very helpful and every time I emailed him I got a very timely response. The average scores on the exams are very high.

His lectures are more incoherent than his hand writing. Rambles on and on and lectures make zero sense. Made the exams unnecessarily hard.TAs could not help me either. I will have to retake this class

This class was a nightmare. His lectures are extremely confusing and he makes the material unnecessarily hard. Worst prof at ucsb I've had so far
