Fall 2017 - Dr. Goldstein is an absolute rockstar. Took the class because I just needed another MCDB elective but ended up loving it so much. His lectures are extremely clear and engaging. His tests are about understanding the material overall rather than fixating on specifics. In fact, he proved this point by letting us bring in a one-page cheat sheet for the final. He genuinely cares for his students and about teaching and it shows every single time hes lecturing.
