Thornton focuses his midterm and final on lecture. Make sure to take good class notes. Only a small fraction of the tests are taken from the textbooks. With that being said, he is an excellent and very kind professor. He or the TA grade very leniently and are very available for help. Take him if you could.

Professor Thornton is one of the most down to earth, likable, and genuinely kind professors I have encountered in my 4 years at UCLA. He is not the most engaging lecturer, but he knows what he's talking about and is so nice that he makes you want to listen to him. The class is not difficult. Skim the reading, pay attention, and you'll be fine. Take Thornton. He is seriously the nicest guy that will make you feel like you can finally exhale when you walk into his class.
