There are no exams or anything but there are some homework assignments and 3 big projects. In my opinion, he's been a really tough grader but he will provide feedback if you ask.",

Participation does matter and it can be hard if you don't like to talk a lot. The group projects have not great instructions and he grades hardly. I think he really does care about his students tho!",

    "comment": "The material is a bit dull, but the class is pretty easy since there are barely assignments besides 3 group projects. To get full credit on participation you have to participate 2x a class which he makes doable.  Group projects are vague and he expects a lot which is a bit annoying, but on the 2 I have back so far he graded them leniently. ",
