He seems very unclear what his teaching about, but leave many hard assignments, avoid him as much as you can.Rate My Professors ↗

It was definitely not an easy course and he makes you work really hard for the grade. I was really frustrated at times during the course with the amount of work involved but in the end it felt really satisfying. His lectures are insightful. He explained several complicated concepts intuitively. I wish he improves his writing though.Rate My Professors ↗

Tough course. He tries to be clear but expects you know your calculus. Hard homework and exams.Rate My Professors ↗

Typical Krishna lecture: Says something obvious ... "Does that make sense to everyone? Is that clear or...?" Asks a baffling poorly-worded question ... seems surprised by the response or lack thereof Everything in this class is hard, but grades are curved, and he allows a "cheat sheet" on exams, so it won't ruin your GPA or anything.Rate My Professors ↗
