Good
The final exam make up 40% of the grade, so if you miss 20 points, you get a letter grade (which is what happened to me). Class project at the end of the semester doesn't contribute to the grade. Often make mistakes throughout lectures. Overall, still, he's a good professor and the material he chose for the class is excellent.
