Really tough course. the first 3 weeks made absolutely no sense to me initially but it's mostly abstract nomenclature that I've never dealt with before. By week 4 or 5 the content started coming together and actually made sense. Fisher wrote the textbook so is very knowledgeable on the topic. Even though the material is very difficult the workload is normal other than having 4 exams as well as the final. Overall an interesting class and would recommend it

If you think you are smart, this is the class to re-examine yourself as a student. The exams are only 1 pages but 2 hours is never enough, because open book exams are harder than the closed book ones. You might need a PhD in quantum mechanics before taking this class.
