Exams and Grading:
3 quizzes(3 best out of 5 surprise quizzes), 1 midsem, 1 endsem. Difficulty is decent, but it helps if you know the content of slides by heart and are up to speed with the course. NO RELATIVE GRADING, ONLY ABSOLUTE.
Online Study Material:
The instructor uploaded the books on Moodle. Not much need to look elsewhere.
