Winter 2021 - This class isn't as bad as some people claim. Lecture is lowkey useless. Prof. Schmidt's lecture is an awkward stream of consciousness, that MOST people can't follow in the first go-around. The best way to study is the drill the old exams, study sets, and pick out concepts from the slides as they come. He doesn't do that many example problems in class, so the practice materials are the best way to figure stuff out. A lot of people are scared of the EE part of this class, but it's not that bad compared to EE100 usually. (EE professors are scarier than BioE professors in general.) Fourier transforms and series aren't that bad, review integration stuff from AP calculus
