Really cool guy. He's a funny and fun guy, but classes are pointless to attend. Study hard the night before the test from his notes by making a good cheat sheet (he allows a one-sided paper to take your test with) and you will get an A or B. His tests are 72 questions and you have an option not to answer 7 of them. (tests are out of 65 questions) But although this sounds easy, he makes his tests extremely difficult and asks very particular questions requiring exact definitions, so even with his free questions and 5-10% curve it is still hard to get an A or B.

The class is pointless to attend. The tests are strictly out of the textbook. He gives you notes that are helpful but only use them as a guide because the tests will cover more material from the book. He gives you a full sheet of paper for each test and curves the test so its easy to get a B and with a little effort, you could pull of an A. If you don't care about management and know its not going to matter to you, then this teacher would be good for you.

Take this class, do the minimum and you will get an A. He types up notes for every chapter, you can use a full sheet of paper on every test and you always get out of night class at least an hour early. But dont think that this means you will get an automatic A. You can skip 7 questions on every test but the tests are semi-difficult, you at least need to do the cheat sheet and understand all of his notes.

Take his night class! You rarely stay past 8pm and even earlier if there is a packer/brewer game. He hands out notes straight out of the book and goes over them. It is very boring, but the curves are nice. Also, he lets you have a full notebook size notecard for each exam handwritten or typed. I would type them with others and print off enough for each of you. Easy class...cant get lower than a B!

he tries to make class interesting with his own examples, but every class sounds the same as the last. the tests are super definition involved and clearly book material, whereas the lectures are more example focused. he's a nice guy, but the material is pretty boring.
