John Schmitt
MATH
I definitely enjoyed this course a bunch. Prof. Schmitt is a funny guy and makes engaging with his students in a humorous, casual way a priority. His teaching style is honestly very solid in my opinion. Having a problem set due for each class does get tiring from time to time, but they're never too long and usually don't tale more than an hour to complete. Very good course with Prof. Schmitt overall.

Schmitt is an amazing man. His lectures are quick and extremely engaging. If you want to feel like your professor really cares about you and knows you, take a class with Schmitt. In Linear Algebra I learned a bunch but wish he would've done more in class examples of questions we might be asked on exams.
The class was 10% homework, 90% exams (3 total, each 30%). This sounds extreme, but not too bad in practice. Definitely a difficult course, but the professor is great. He is good at explaining the concepts in class and the homework is not too difficult. The lowest two homework grades are also dropped.
