There is no textbook so all you get is what he says. He does upload answers to the lecture notes, but barely shows any work. Discussions aren't necessary.",

Exams can be pretty rough, but the curves he creates for exams are bizarre (could get 4 points below average and get an A) and usually work in favor of students.",
