Do not take this class unless you have to. Tests are very hard and lectures are extremely long. Do not study just the worksheets you must study everything, yes all 800+ slides per exam. Milo was kind. There are hard quizzes every week with no extra credit and challenging exams.Rate My Professors ↗

Original student reviews · all captured dates
Professor Wiltbank's lectures are dense and long, always 50-100 slides per lecture. Personally, his lecture style grew on me after the first exam when I felt like I had a base understanding and could keep up. He knows a lot, and tries to be helpful but be ready for projects, exams, daily worksheets and a lot of reading.Rate My Professors ↗
Milo is fun and engaging. He goes quick through slides and gets through 50-70 per class. There are 2 group projects. Exams are all paper, utilize the worksheets. You need to attend lecture. Difficult class and easy to fall behind. I really enjoyed the class and learned a lot, only downside is it takes like a month to get our exam scores back.Rate My Professors ↗
If I manage to pass this class, I will be genuinely shocked. People were CRYING during his final exam. If that doesn't tell you everything you need to know about this class, I don't know what will.Rate My Professors ↗
Milo has the idea that what he is saying makes sense, but in reality his lectures can be quite misleading and has room for lots of misinterpretation. Milo often gives little to no explanation when asked to explain further, but instead will scoff or laugh at any questions asked. Doesn't respond to emails well/confusing explanations.Rate My Professors ↗
I absolutely loved this class! Milo can be tough to learn from at the beginning, but as you get into material, it's easier to make connections. Super passionate about info and always willing to work through concepts one-on-one. Exams can be challenging, but follow class worksheets closely and you'll be successful. Don't rely on PPT memorization.Rate My Professors ↗
