This is a decent class that is taught well by Kim, but the material is just so challenging. Its a LOT of material that feels really rushed through at times, and requires a lot of outside study in order to fully understand it. Kim writes VERY quickly and it is a challenge to keep up and get all the information. The homework assignments are challenging but are the most important way to study and understand the material. The midterm was pretty rough because it relied on a lot of principles that weren't stressed in class (like principles from EE 100 or conceptual proofs we hadn't discussed). The lab sessions were kind of a joke because it would be a pre-written Matlab script where we had to change 3-4 lines and then upload a report with screenshots of the resulting plots. The TA you have for this can make or break your experience with the labs. Overall, a rough class but there is good support available.
