Dr. Conley gives the best lectures. He goes over every question with great detail in office hours and hosts 3-hour review session before each exam. He truly cares about student learning, though his homework sometimes would take a while to finish. 115A struck me as a hard class at first, but I ended up way better than I expected thanks to Conley. I wish he could teach more upper divs in the future! 🥰

Conley is an amazing lecturer but at the same time his tests were incredibly hard and his assignments took weeks to complete. The assignments were almost 15 questions and they took minimum of 72 hours to complete. You would just stare at the questions, and then go for office hours and copy the solutions (without really learning much). I thought the class would be curved but I ended with a C+ after putting in so much work and effort into the class. It is really not worth it if you are simply looking to fulfill a tech breath or try the class. Keep in mind I did the honors version.

I will say that he is very passionate about teaching the students and helping them. I cannot dispute that. I just feel that after putting in so much effort and time into the class, the curve was really not as other students had advertised and a lot of other kids fell into the same boat. I ended switching out of my Mathematics major because of this class and I realized that I was really not fit to be a Mathematician in my lifetime.

If you are really passionate about Mathematics, do the class. Otherwise, it is really not worth the time and effort.
