Basically, he writes the textbook in chalk during lecture. But the discussions were helpful. And the curve is definitely generous.

Not very hard class if you have any calc background and its also curved at the end. I didn't attend class much, but when I did I felt Reed wasn't a very good teacher. Smart, nice guy, but pretty much your stereotypical math-nerd grad student with a hint of awkwardness. One thing I can say about him is that I had way less HW than friends taking this class with other professors (usually only 10-15 problems a week!). Brad Dorner was my TA and I would definitely recommend him! Really hope he teaches a class one day.
