Reviews of professor Edmund Karasiewicz

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
He explained things worse than the textbook. And its not like it was a great textbook. Luckily there are amazing YouTube series on linear algebra. He always came to class in cargo shorts and sweaty pits. He shouldve brought an extra change of clothes because he obviously biked to work.

Grading: 40% midterm, 45% final, and 15% homework. Midterm was largely based on homework. But the final was not, and a lot of the questions appeared for the first time on the final review. The average score was close to 80% in the midterm, but only 45% in the final. He's nice, but he should make the difficulty of exams more consistent.

Ed K is one of the worst lecturers Ive had on campus. The exams were overly difficult and he didnt provide any answer keys for both midterm and final review worksheets. Im sure hes really smart, but he share any of that knowledge with the class.

Ed has great lectures, but he lacks in the testing department. His tests are hard, but there is a really nice curve at the end of the quarter. You can get the A in his class, but you have to put in a lot of work.

The 45% final is the hardest thing in this class. Homeworks are graded by correctness. The textbook we used also have mistakes. Choose P/NP if you are insecure about grades.
