Hedlund is a really REALLY chill guy. He's very nice and understanding, and you can tell that he has a passion for teaching. Do the homework and try to understand it. His class is structured that if you pay attention in his lectures, you'll get an A in the class. Although for Calc AB and Calc BC it's 90% tests, he still tries to make the tests reasonably easy.

Take your learning into your own hands. You can get an A with doing just half your homework sloppily and without thought, but try to actually learn from it. It's much like a college class in that he doesn't micromanage and force you to pay attention; you have to be your own judge of when you want to listen and when you want to do homework or something.
