Reviews of professor Maria Gust

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Prof Gust was a good teacher who summarizes the main points of each topic. She goes through the lectures pretty fast so be ready to write fast. Reading the textbook helps too but she tests based on the lectures. She doesn't make the class hard, the subject itself is hard with all the equations and concepts you have to know.

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Lectures are just slides. She goes through really fast, but there are a few helpful examples every so often. Go to discussions; the TA's will go over useful problems. Professor Gust and the TA's are very accessible outside of class and usually respond to emails for help. Tests are a lot of memorization of concepts and similar to the Wiley+ HW.

Prof Gust is very caring. She goes pretty fast through lectures and examples, so you kind of have to rely on the Wiley homework for topical review. Also, this class covers a lot of material (pun intended), so don't procrastinate. The class isn't too difficult itself. IMO, memorizing all the variables and what they represent is the hardest part.
