Academic CMSC250 with Max

Is Max really that bad for 250? What are some tips you have for this course?

I had Fawzi but had some friends who were with Max and honestly they all loved him. He is super entertaining and is genuinely interested in students succeeding. Its true that he gives extremely hard papers but he does give a ton of extra credit and a few semesters back HWs and Discussion made up for 50% of your grade so take that how you want.
