    Quarter Taken: Fall 2023 In-Person
    Grade: A

    There wasn't a need to read a textbook. His lecture are engaging, but very slow for a somewhat STEM subject. His industry experience is really helpful in learning about how the things we learn are actually used. Tests are sometime a bit unclear but are relatively easy.
