Combinatorics is difficult and needs clarification, and he doesn't exactly have an aura of encouraging questions.\n\nThat said all the exams are open book and the questions are off the homework, so doing poorly is rather difficult if you try even a little.",

    "comment": "Really makes sure to teach in a way that everyone can understand. He gets a little lost in the sauce sometimes and loses people, but he makes sure everyone understands a topic before moving on. Easily much better than Terwilliger. But combinatorics is hard and the problems vary, lectures will probably not be enough, you need to review the textbook.",
