not easy but if you read, do cheat sheets for the test and look at review and book your good. he wont go in depth unless you ask him for the math in class during lecture. he will assume your reading the book. But if you ask for the math & clarification he will tell the class speak up & ask I did got B will take again. best teacher of all other prof

Nervo is a great professor! He really knows his stuff and also wants his students to leave his class being able to do the same. Very nice guy and yeah he may go off topic but he's a funny guy so its okay. He really just genuinly wants his students to be educated and learn from this class.

Prof. Nervos first language not being English makes it hard for him to teach. If I didnt have the textbook I would have failed. However, his test are easy because you can have a cheat sheet, but he only gives us about thirty minutes out of an 2hr10min class to take a 50+ question test.
