Nice professor. To be honest the class is a little boring. but you can either choose to go to his office hours or work on your own to figure things out. exams are mostly easy as long as you spend a moderate amount of time on this class.

Class is easy but terrible teacher - basically writes textbook on board for lecture (no interactive or engaging elements for relatively small class). In addition, does not take partial credit for exams/quizzes. Nice guy but such a boring teacher.

You should definitely choose Aimo if you want to skip you four final. He never assigns any homework but do 15 quizzes in class. Top 10 quizzes will be counted. If you feel good about your midterm, you can drop the final. His cut off for A is at most 80%, and for B is at most 60%. This semester, 20 out of 26 in my class get an A.

Comment:
At first he seems hard, but later I found that he was quite fair. He is very good about explaining every concept without acting as though you know nothing or know everything. He does grade most things on an all-or-none basis, but this works out well to help learn the subject.

Comment:
His lectures go so in depth with proofs but his tests are pretty basic. Homework is pretty easy. Drops 1 out of 3 tests and then you can take your grade as is without final exam. Nice curve. Won't budge when arguing for points on tests. Definitely qwirky math type.

Comment:
professor has a heavy accent, but definitely knows his material. loves explaining and using proofs. for 225 he gave out practice exams that were similar to the real test, drop 1 out of 3 exams. homeworks were easy points if u had the answer guide. shouldnt be hard at all. just do a little studying on the practice test before the test.

75 was still an A with no plusses or minuses, also no final in the class if you were happy with your grade or you could take it to try and improve. Very good at explaining but a lot of memorization.

Comment:
He has no sympathy in grading...it's all or nothing folks. In order to make it out alive, you have to work your ass off. He is funny in a "clueless math professor" sort of way. Fun accent.
