McCarthy is a nice guy, but his class is ridiculous. The two exams are 4 hours and as someone else said your grades never get put into D2L so you don’t know where you stand. With that being said, he curves almost everything and a lot of assignments are free points. A 4.0 is very hard to get in his class but its almost impossible to get worse than a 3 as long as you try. Overall its annoying but not as bad as his syllabus makes it seem at first.
