This course isn't that bad if you attend classes, participate in discussions, and do the readings assigned. But it is a lot of reading and you tend to find yourself not really needing to read everything assigned. There isn't much room to mess up so every grade matters, and there is a ton of writing that goes along with it. Professor Tropp does grade a little tough but when you make the effort to meet with him you will most likely find yourself doing better in his class.

You can tell Tropp really cares about this class and the subject material. But, it moved super quickly, and I felt like I could never get everything written down. The exams were a lot more focused on memorization then actually engaging with the concepts.

The lectures were a bit dry but covered a lot of material. The papers were difficult prompts that required a lot of citations and research. The exams were memorization heavy and graded very hard. Lost a lot of points on super nit-picky errors that did not reflect my overall understanding of the subject material.
