Professor Sabau's class was easy. There were five tests, with the final being optional. Also, the five lowest quiz grades were dropped. For each test, there's a review that's graded, and we had the option of doing addional problems for ten extra credit points. His class is simple and would usually end 10-15 minutes early.
