Do Not Take His Class

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Teaches a lot of theory and does not provide a lot of examples in class. Even with a shortened semester, we were tested the same amount as a regular semester including a cumulative final exam.

Lectures are extremely disorganized and don't explain content well. Tests were online and awful with around 5 questions that are very, very easy to mess up even if you know the content. Homework/quizzes do not prepare you for the difficulty of the tests. Even if you know the content well, you will have a rough time.

Worst professor I've ever had. Has a god complex and enjoys torturing students in class with simple but not defined questions that are engineered to trick you, and will then antagonize you during lecture. Refuses to answer questions. Tests and quizzes are given no study material and exams require memorization of all formulas with no assistance.

I took this course over the summer, so everything was online. There were only 2 exams and no final which was nice. The first exam was pretty challenging, but the second was a lot easier comparatively. He allowed a cheat sheet. I was 1 point away from an A and asked for extra credit (twice), but he never answered. Not great, but not horrible.
