Nice and wise prof, lectures aren't that useful, the course is designed in a way where if you read the textbook you are guaranteed a minimum of A-. The midterm was fair and good to most, final was much harder but doable with good studying. Nikolai's study hall will be your best friend, plus Ravi usually curves, very nice curve this year!
Very good professor!! Always gives you ideas of what can come on a midterm or final exam. Make sure to study hard since this is the hardest first year course your gonna tale
Terrible prof who doesn't explain stuff properly and doesn't even sound like he wants to be there anymore
He has a really bad accent and sometimes just reads off slides. However, he is pretty chill and caring. He also tells us what questions might be on the midterms and exams, so thats a plus
Proff Ravi is a good proff, His lectures are super boring but and this is a big BUT, if you go to his lectures regularly and at least study for like half and hour every day you should be able to do really good in the course, bonus he gives you on point hint on what to expect in the tests.
Sweetest prof, gives hints on what you could see on the exam. This is a university course so expect to have to do independent learning and textbook reading. The prof tries to give you the main points you must know for each chapter, you will have to do reading on your own to do well on the course. One of the best profs :)
A genuine caring man. Once you get past the accent, he cares about the material he is teaching and conveys life lessons and course material in his lectures.
Really nice guy, but a bit old and out of touch. His notes are not great. Exams contain problems straight from previous exams or assignments. Friday 8AM lectures had 8 people showing up to his class. Lectures seem to go in circles. I still found them interesting, most people didn't. If you want to know your exam grade, you need to call him.
Worst prof I ever had. Very hard to understand what he says. His notes are a total mess and his test are way harder than other profs for the same subject. You should definitely not choose him...
it is just impossible to learn something in the class. He explains some advanced stuff though that might be interesting for some. But if you're looking for a good mark, the book and lecture slides will get you an A.
