Extremely difficult class, but I learned a lot that I hope will help me in my studies. Great lecturer and was clearly knowledgeable on the material. Cared that you understood the material more than your grade (helpful during OH). Would recommend his class ONLY if you want to learn the material, not because you just need to pick a class.Rate My Professors ↗
