Reviews of professor Kalana Jayawardana

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
One of the best professors I've had at Vanderbilt. Incredibly funny and extremely approachable professor. Exams are fairly straightforward (similar concepts to the practice tests he posts on Brightspace), although the third test is definitely the hardest. Highly recommend - I would take any other class that he teaches.

While he is clearly knowledgeable on the content, his lectures were boring. He says you don't need the textbook, but I ended up buying it anyways and teaching myself because I couldn't retain any info from his lectures. There are three exams, worth 75% of your grade (other 25% is hw and participation), and they're pretty difficult, so watch out
