Quality 4/5Difficulty 3/5
An interesting French guy. Lectures are heavy and a bit disorganized, and he can be better at explaining things. But overall the concepts are not too difficult. Unfortunately, exams can be challenging as there are a lot of multiple-answer questions. Research project is a cakewalk as virtually everyone gets full points. Practice exams help a lot.
