There isn't a lot of material, which allows him to go over it very thoroughly and explain it well. He grades very fairly as well. I would recommend reading the textbook and going through the examples to fully understand.",

Exams leaned on the difficult side, but were manageable. This is a class where you have to put a lot of time in if you want to succeed, and Allen is more than willing to help you get there.",
