Most Helpful Review
Spring 2020 - I took Kadambi in Spring 2020 so it was completely online. He was a really fun and nice professor and his annotated slides are really good. He follows the philosophy of offering hard classes with easier/relaxed grading. The homework was pretty hard and I spent multiple days on it every week. But the midterm and final were actually easier than the HWs (median for the midterm was 91.5). He made both the midterm and final 24 hours long before the quarter even started. He does this because he sympathizes with the difficulty of the UC system compared to private schools (he went to Berkeley for undergrad and MIT for his PhD). Overall, really fun and cool professor and I personally would take this class with Kadambi again if I had to!
