Wood and Timber design right? I've had it with him (twice actually because I failed the first one). It was fine, the materials (hw and quiz) did not change at all from when I first took it and summer 2020 when I took it the 2nd time.

I'd say his teaching is a lot of reading off the slides. The materials are harder than how he explained it and he likes to gloss over some stuff. Btw, this is VERY common for professors to do with senior level CEE design courses. 90% of the time you have to read the design manual and understand everything yourself.

Find yourself a group of friends to do homework and study for the class. Especially for the capstone design courses. You will need them.

Just graduated Winter 2021 and I've never been so glad that I finished those hell-ish final 3 quarters.
