Super nice. He got thrown into teaching a new class and it was a challenge for both him and the students. Often times, he seemed to not know what to teach or how, but he tried very hard and was ultimately aware of his shortcomings. I would take him again, just in a different setting.

The homework is almost all excel based.  Prof Gould will help you, but theoretically, not much in excel. You spend at least 6 hours a week on homework, but at least 60% of your grade is 2 LONG tests.
