Phenomenal class with a great professor. Convinced me to take a combined major with math. I found IB Math HL easy, but this class works with proofs and you will learn a lot. Getting an A isn't too hard so long as you finish the assignments, but you WILL work for it. Scaled Generously.

Hard yet great class, I've already taken IB Math HL and thought I would learn only a little. How wrong I was. Incredible professor.

Do homework early and then redo it later on in the course.

This was a super fun course, but also very challenging. It's the kind of challenge that will push you to learn and expand how you think. It starts out very challenging, but gets better as you go.

If you enjoy math and are strong in math you will do fine and should stick with it. Be prepared to spend a good amount of time thinking through the homework though.

Honestly, the most fun yet challenging class I took in my first term at UBC. Prof. Martin was very accommodating regarding covid and ensured that we prioritized our mental health. The class itself was challenging (especially the homeworks), but the exams are generously curved so it isn't impossible to do well overall. 9/10
