Pros: He explains all the concepts very clearly and easy to understand.
Want to doing well on exams, you should go to office hours to get extra help for the homework. Exam questions are asking in details about the concepts, be aware of that.

Pros: Professor Hilt teaches in a clear manner. Very helpful and has a good overall demeanor.
Cons: Alot of memorization, and time dedicated to this class. If you have a off day, you might not be able to keep up with writing the notes he writes on the overhead.
Hilt writes out notes on a projector, which can be a problem since you have to copy and listen to what he says and try to understand at the same time. There are two midterms and one final for this class. There is alot of things you have to understand and memorize. This is a very difficult class, and you will need to dedicate a good amount of time for this class to get a good grade.
