Class is interesting, but definitely heavy on memorization for exams. If you know the slides you'll do fine. Attendance is also not mandatory or even really helpful

He's good at dad jokes which helps keep you semi-engaged in lecture. Class is very heavy on memorization, which is to be expected but the exams were (for the most part) similar to practice exams.

Exams weren't too bad, just make sure you stay on top of consistent studying.
