Comment:
By FAR the worst professor I have ever had at the UofC. Classes are awful and often consist of photos of stop signs... exams are ridiculous and unfair; and he edits the exam as you write it and doesn't bother to announce changes! No office hours. I will be dropping out of his class next semester. AW-FUL. Do whatever you can to avoid.

Comment:
His slides are terrible. Never in his office for assistance. Assignments are way to long and tedious. Doesn't seem like he cares about his students grades. Prepares you for exams by posting practice problems 8 hours before the exam. Boring and confusing to listen to.

Dr Hunt knows his stuff, but good luck if you didn't pay attention in class. Some of his notes are hand written overheads which he posts prior to class, and are impossible to read. Midterm was based on 4 chapters, only one of which appeared on the actual test. Do the assignments on your own, and lots of practice finals.

Teaching is clear but prof makes it feel like the class is really easy but is not. The only problems are from the assignment which are very long and hard and are not worth a lot of marks. half the TAs didnt know the course. Basically the only way to do well in the course is to do the assignments like 5 times.

Comment:
Watch out. He clearly knows his stuff, he just does this thing where he refuses to teach it. There's a lot of material in the course...mostly because he decided to mix the lecture with the 707 Grad course. I wish he'd quit thinking his powerpoint presentations are useful. Nice guy though....

He is uninterested in his students. You have to regurgitate verbatim from his notes on his tests or you won't do well. His TA was a complete moron.

Ok teacher, but is hard to find after class. His labs are hard, but is not on the test, so don't bother to go.
