Honestly love Prof Stein, lectures can be dull but I overall enjoyed the course. He's very funny and a bit sarcastic which I thought made the class a lot more fun. Graded on 3 papers and a few quizzes, not too tough but engaging enough!
Stein is a cool guy and pretty laid back. The content can be kind of dull sometimes but he doesn't expect too much of students. No midterm or final, just papers and pop quizzes. Pretty easy class and super theoretical if that's what you're looking for. Heard mixed reviews about Stein in the past but I'd definitely take him again
