Reviews

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

    -For 6 units this is quite a good class.
    -If you can memorize the slides, you will get 100% on the exams
    -The work is mainly just busywork, you can do them on auto pilot. For reference the LS7 series had more work.
    -The labs basically never took up the whole allotted time, we're typically done in 2 hours
    -The professor grades in favor for the students. If there's a question that many got wrong he'll just remove it without much hassle. On the midterm I couldn't answer a major question and thought my score would be 90 max, but I got a 97 because he simply removed the hard questions.
