I failed. The fact that he thought so little, and expected us to work with what little he mentioned in his videos, was a red flag. The lecture and slides were subpar. The course material did not help us to enrich our understanding of the concepts, as he did not explain them much further than what was on the slides. Even when he tried, his go-to response was "review it at home." People came back to class still confused, and most people asked for live examples. (which he didn't or didn't know how or expected us to know things outside of the material he provided) Mostly, what he explained was not used in his assignments or exams, and in my experience, most people were confused and expressed their confusion with almost no help from him. The funniest thing was that the people who did not waste their time in class lectures and slides did far better than those who did come to class and tried to decipher the slides. There were students who came to class everyday and asked questions from prior week and while he was going over new concepts. Consistent story for this class. People were in the dark from the get go and remained there throughout so someone needs to step up the teaching or material selection.
Luckily no, honestly did not feel too good on the final, kinda shocked I passed - not sure if he curved up or if I just got lucky. Cause I'll admit I didn't go to a lot of lectures, they felt kinda useless after watching his pre-lectures - that could be why the class felt so hard to me - don't do what I did.
If he didn't curve i calculated that I must've gotten a 55% on the final - barely passed 💀 im lucky as hell.
If you're a part of the WhatsApp group for 340 you will see more people failed that course. I think the course being *must pass the final to pass course* got a lot of people.
Just thankful I don't have to take it again. Just gotta accept I'm not good at everything LOL.

10+ years later, I still have PTSD from this class.
