Obie is very knowledgeable of the subject, and his passion shows up in his teaching, although he can be awkward at times. He makes resources very available, and has the most organized canvas page I've ever seen. Showing up to class is not mandatory, but the fast-paced nature means you can miss a lot if you don't go. Also, what he teaches in class is exactly what is on the exams, so if you show up and take notes you should do well.

I honestly cannot tell if the course content itself is hard or if the lectures make it confusing. The small sections are honestly the most helpful, the Problem sets take a lot of time so make sure to account for that when scheduling, the exams are tough but the curve is a lifesaver. Rough time but not terrible terrible, very do-able.

I highly recommend this class for anyone regardless of major. Gary is a phenomenal prof and has unique perspectives that many other midd profs dont. you will learn and enjoy in this class ! Get ready to read but it is all worth it
