He has a slight German accent and often times he makes everything sound more complicated than it actually is. You need to do four homework assignments for this class and they are extremely challenging. Since there is not much material to study for this class (his lecture notes and homework are everything you have), you need to know everything backward and forward. Even then, the problems on homework will be totally unexpected and unpredictable. I felt like I kept missing some stuff in class because not much in homework assignments and on the final reflect what he taught in class. I guess you just need to be smart to do well in this class. Like the other person said, the midterm was so easy that 90 was the average score.
I took this class almost two years ago and it was great back then and I can say that it's gotten even better since then. (In the sense that I've come to realize good teachers are hard to find at a research college.) It's tough to find a better professor than Moritz. He taught a pretty mathematical subject really well and did it with examples that were engaging. There were homework assignments and a final team presentation where we had to apply game theory to a real world event.
I also remember that in the lab sections each of us sat in front of a computer and played games with others in the same room! Then Moritz would analyze the results with us in the subsequent lab lectures. Very memorable.
Easy and interesting class, his examples in lecture notes and practice problems are harder than actual tests. Predictable midterms so everyone got As, so he made the final much harder. Overall, still easy since he gives super generous curve.
