Its not like an easy A, but his humor and personality make Abstract Algebra actually interesting. Do whatever it takes to get into his class. You wont regret it",

It was not a fair assessment of what we had learned in class, and I'm sure everybody bombed it. I'm sure he made it extra hard, since everybody did really well on the second midterm. He's a very unfair professor.",

While the midterms had straightforward problems from the HW, the final had problems you'd never even seen before.
