I had Laub for Math 33A. The reviews on this site make him out to be a terrible professor--when he really wasn't that bad. Sure, he's not the greatest explainer, and sure, his tests are a bit odd, but all in all he was a decent professor. He had a study guide for the midterm and final, and he was extremely helpful when I went to office hours on the day before the final. I screwed up on the midterm, which is why I got the grade that I did, but if he were teaching a higher level course on Linear Algebra, I would definitely take him.

For some reason, I was not able to scroll down and select anything other than Electrical Engineering, but I took 33 A. I would recommend anyone other than Professor Laub. Toward the beginning of the course, when I questioned my friends from the other lecture why on earth they would choose a class at 8, they said because Laub is an asshole. They described him for me. He teaches the material with the incorrect assumption that all have seen and already understand the material. When asking for clarification on concepts, students were ridiculed. And for those that reviewed him as being "nice," they are misreading his passive aggressiveness as an inviting smile which he wears across his face as he tells you how stupid you are. Don't take Laub.
