    Quarter Taken: Winter 2022 In-Person
    Grade: A

    Pretty easy class. Chernikov takes all his lectures directly from the textbook, so attendance isn't necessary. Homework and exam questions are very similar, so make sure you understand the homework. This was made easier considering the exams were all 24 hours online.
