This class blows I've never been so lost in math in my life; I tried getting help at the math center and I still don't understand. The math is so far-fetched and he likes to teach his own lessons rather than going by the books standards so if you know what's good for you don't take it; if you do, do all the homework (if you even understand it).

Doesn't use the workbook/online packet that comes with the crazy expensive textbook.
