This class isn't as hard as it could be made out to be. His tests were online for me. However, they are very detailed so you have to rewatch lectures and take very detailed notes on what he says so you can reference it for online tests. Other than that the material is interesting!
This class was TOUGH. I had to go and rewatch all lectures and still did horribly
Discussion sections had attendance required. Midterms and final taken online with open note. Weekly quizzes. Overall the class was difficult as the professor has a specific way to present the information, but once you understand what's going on, it feels easier.
Lectures were very helpful, there are recordings but you should attend. I got an A fairly easily with attending lecture. Exams were given online, originally through MATLAB but then through Canvas after technical difficulties.
Exams were online but even then it was low-key hard. You had to pay attention to everything the professor said.
