    The class was difficult because the exam questions were sometimes hard to interpret (could be interpreted in many ways). The clicker questions were helpful to learning.

    Material was very interesting but moved really fast. Exams were difficult and questions were tricky.

    ah another 7 series course; these classes have probably the worst exams that i've taken just because of how confusing their wording is

    pretty standardized series and Esdin was a great prof who was super clear and a good lecturer but these tests simply destroy me every time

    Cooper made this class very annoying and tedious. Very bad at explaining stuff

    Dr. Esdin was a very good professor and I enjoyed taking his class. Overall, the class material was very difficult and dense, but he did a good job of making sure we understood the content. Classes consisted of presenting material as well as completing practice problems. For exam preparation, the most useful materials were the discussion worksheets and in-class practice problems, as well as the weekly quizzes.

    class was informative and engaging. it is more difficult in content and content heavy in comparison to 7a & 7b but going to CLC sessions can greatly help with student understanding.
