Reviews
Helpful professor and final is optional if you did good on your two midterms.
Slides were pretty dense and the professor's lecturing style isn't the easiest to follow but the exams are decently straight forward and she drops the lowest exam (out of 2 midterms and a final). Theres a fair amount of free points in the class as well. Subject material was pretty boring and run of the mill.
