Reviews

    Quarter Taken: Winter 2023 In-Person
    Grade: A

    Attending lectures was not mandatory, but Professor Taylor does discuss content that ended up being on the midterm exam. Also, his slides didn't really have much information on them, so looking at them didn't really help. Other than that, it's also pretty much critical to do the readings since the writing assignments are based on them.
