Ala is the absolute man. The class is very easy but still worth taking, because it is good stuff to know in whatever career you have. Unless you are just plain bad at math, the class requires very minimal studying to get a good grade. Study a reasonable amount (2.5 hours) before the test and getting above a 90 will be a breeze. Most importantly, Ala is very interesting guy to listen to and he goes off on very cool tangents. He's been a great guy to get to know.

Professor A is a nice guy and a fun lecturer, but it's hard to get in touch with him via email and follow-up with him. If you study, you'll do fine. If you don't study and aren't a math person... good luck. I am not a math person and took this class because I heard it was pretty easy and was unpleasantly surprised by the difficulty (I studied pretty hard).

Dat's Right! The GOAT of Professors! If you hate math, enjoy random and incredible tangents, and want a solid grade take Ala's class. Doesn't get any better than Professor A!
