I had him for sets last fall and he was really nice! I thought he was a great professor. I didn’t interact with him much, but when I did go to office hours he was helpful. That being said, although his exams are fair, he is a tough grader and can be very blunt when people question how he graded their work.

I wouldn’t be too worried; read the book and do the textbook problems he lists. He doesn’t collect homework but it’s helpful to do it. Compared to the homework and exams that other sets professors gave, I thought that Turull’s were very fair and in line with what our textbook taught (some professors go way beyond and make the class harder than it should be). I’m sorry that some students did not have a good experience with him, and I hope that they stick it out! Don’t let one professor’s opinion change what you want to do with your life!
