Reviews of professor Jelani Nelson

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
he is so cool

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
REALLY incredibly smart guy. He is very talented at lecturing. Exams are difficult but fair, and the curve at the end was very generous.

Jelani didn't come to lectures prepared. During his OH, he will shut off the student asking questions. He and his head TAs were completely hands-off, cared least about student issues. Very late HW grading and in posting materials, mistakes in material and final letter grades. Course TAs hardly came to OH. Complaints on piazza promptly removed

He's actually quite bad. Pretty unclear sometimes during lecture, and pauses for long periods of time when thinking of proofs rather than coming to lecture prepared. Exams are pretty hard, but you should be fine if you read the textbook.
