    Quarter Taken: Spring 2023 In-Person
    Grade: A+

    The lectures were posted early on the Canvas website so that we could view the lecture early. The professor taught a lot of example problems but went through them quite fast. The professor could slow down in lecture. To prepare for the midterms and final, the lectures and redoing the HW was helpful. I received the grade I expected.
