his classes were fine, to say at least

Is this guy still around? Mr Model basher

Tough class. If you take really good notes on top of the powerpoint slides he provides, and if you go to section, you should get an A. Generous curve

LeRoy was pretty cool but 134A was hell. The TAs grade your tests so choose one you like because some are stingy with the points. Like others said, everything is open book/notes but they aren't much use unless you know what you're doing. Make sure you understand everything completely and don't rely too much on your notes and practice tests.

3 midterms and a final. drops the lowest of the 4. The final was way harder so try and do well on the first 3 and skip the final. Notes and book are not very helpful on exams because his questions are a few steps ahead of the book and lecture examples. He is occasionaly funny but other than that this class will put the average student to sleep.

This class is tough and pretty boring. Test are open books and open notes but they are not helpful b/c his test questions are much harder. This class is made for our suffering and destined for students to fail.
