Reviews of professor Ilya Kossovskiy

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Honestly the course material isnt that difficult, but he grades homework on correctness and is a tough exam grader. Missing any part of a question leads to a 25 percent point deduction for the problem, meaning it is almost impossible to get by on partial credit.

It takes you about a week to get used to his accent (don't panic!) In his first lecture he will try to intimidate you into dropping the class but after that the lectures are easy (but he is not good at teaching). Just do all the homework and teach yourself using the textbook you have to buy and you'll be fine.

The course itself wasn't too difficult, but his writing and accent makes it harder to understand the material. Homework graded on correctness and the exam questions were worth a LOT.

clear lectures, prof methods are easier to understand than the book, however there is no podcast or lecture notes, its only blackboard. midterm and final straightforward
