Make sure you go to his review sessions before exams. You can not go to his lectures but definitely go to his review sessions. He reviews everything in the lecture in a concise and clear way. Repeat, go to review sessions if you want an A.

Conley rocks and is probably the best professor in the Math department. Most people hate 32B and think it is the worst class within the lower division classes. I loved it and it was 100% because of the professor. The material is tough, yes, but Conley's lectures are very easy to understand. He explains concepts very well both in office hours and in lecture. Study very hard for the first midterm. Don't expect the final to be easy, it will not be. Conley also holds review sessions before all of his exams. He is a very dedicated professor. Once, the review session started at 6:00 PM and ended at 12:00 AM. You cannot get much better than that. He is awesome.

Also, his lectures are podcasted and he's taught every lower-division Math course (31A -33B), so if you ever need extra help you can watch his lectures.

Exams are straight forward and easy. Be sure to do his practice exams and master the techniques used in homework. His homeworks are A LOT and u need to budget enough time.

He is very uneffective and I found his lectures a waste of time as he barely does any examples and all the theories he proofs have nothing to do with your grades since they are never on exams.

Not a bad idea to take classes with him. The key is to practice and the calculations are tedious in the exams especially in the finals.

Final grade: A

Conley is a great lecturer, and he makes the concepts very intuitive and easy to understand. He also really cares for his students, and wants every single one of them to understand the material. You won't find another professor who will sacrifice his free time to have 4 hour review sessions outside of class, and hold extra office hours on the weekend before an exam. This man is an extraordinary human being.

The only thing I found slightly annoying was his pace. At times he would move really slowly through the material, because he wanted to make sure that everyone understood everything. I ended up bruincasting his lectures and fast-forwarding it, which worked really well for me.

Trust me, you want to take Conley. He is THE best math professor I have EVER taken. (I have finished the 31,32,33 series and math 61).
His lectures are more theoretical and not so important to attend.
Do his homeworks and you will score well on the midterms.
He has a review session before every exam as well as office hours where he stays and teaches for ~2 hours!
He is very dedicated to his students, though he didn't ever respond to my emails. -_- Haha. Seriously, take him!
