Labutin is a great professor but the grading scheme was lackluster with no curve. This is a hard class but not impossible, and if you do the homework and the reading, you should be well equipped for exams. 3 exams, open note inlcuding take home final. It's a hard class but a very awesome, interesting, and mindbending one, so don't get discouraged.

Rushes through topics and homework is SO LONG. Assigns one very long written homework and one webwork assignment every week. webwork is limited to 3 tries instead of unlimited tries like usual. 2 midterms. However the final was online and the course ended in week 9 which was nice so you can focus on other finals.

hard class and fast lectures but he teaches it very well. homework takes a while, though exams are open textbook.

Labutin just reads off of lecture slides so I stopped attending class. All tests were online and made the class much easier. Although he's a terrible prof, the class was super easy.

Lectures weren't mandatory, there were no midterms or a final, the class was only graded by weekly homework and five online/asynchronous tests, and the lowest score is dropped. Labutin is the goat.

His lectures are very theoretical and quite confusing. However, there are 5 online midterms and no final, and the homework is all webwork, so it's easy to get an A. The TA ended up being really helpful and all the section worksheets were just like the midterms. The only reason I understood the content is because I took linear algebra in hs.

Easiest class ever I didn't even try

5 online tests and homework which wasn't bad. However Prof was a terrible lecturer and you basically have to self-study using youtube, CLAS, or hope for a good TA.

Just 5 online tests, and homeworks which are not that bad. But the class is poorly taught, mainly depends on the student to self study with youtube, CLAS, finding the textbook online, or hope they have a good TA.

Class was very easy, 5 online, at home tests instead of a midterm/final. Not good at lecturing, talks too much about theory and not enough about how to actually solve problems, but my TA understood that and was how I did all of my learning for this class.

Professor Labutin's lectures make no sense. Going to lecture just made me more confused. There are no midterms or final, just quizzes every other week that are take home, open note. Having a good TA and attending CLAS made the class manageable.

Labutin's lectures are usually confusing and hard to keep up with. That being said, this class is a free A, all tests are online and at-home, open note.
