Oleg is one of my favorite characters here at UCLA. I’ve never met anyone like him here in the math department. He’s a no-BS kind of guy, he’s great. Only complaint I have is his lectures can be hard to follow. Besides that, he’s funny, passionate about math/game theory, and also very generous with grades. He (or his TA by proxy) will give you credit back on exams if you can explain what you did wrong and show that you know how to solve the problem, and offers students grading scheme/final exam or project choices (kind of like using game theory to let the students decide how the course will go lol) plus the extra credit on exams and homework go a long way. And most importantly (at least to me), he’s the only professor I’ve had that’s tried to holistically connect math to the rest of the world. Game theory is the math of decision making, so I guess that’s what I should expect. But Oleg really cared about teaching us how to use math/game theory to be rational critical thinkers, and I really appreciate that above everything else. If you get a chance to take this class, I highly recommend you take it and engage as much as you possibly can! Go to lecture though, he doesn’t like it when people don’t go to lecture, or when they come in late. He’ll call you out on it (like I said, no BS). But at the end of the quarter, you’ll most likely find yourself with a relatively easy A,A- or B+ and a different way of seeing the world than before.
