Prof. Larson is not the most engaging lecturer, but he really knows the material. Weekly homework assignments can be challenging, but he's always willing to help in office hours. The class is math intensive, with lots of probability. Tests are tough, but designed to test your knowledge, not trip you up.

This class isn't really worth taking, or at least it hasn't proven to be so far in my studies. Larson is a nice guy and all, but not a great lecturer. The tests are VERY hard, especially the first one. The problem sets can also take forever, so you should definately find a friend to work through them with.
