Best math professor Ive ever had. I took her over a year ago and Ive not found another like her. Shes hilarious, cares about her students, and is always available to help. I wish she taught more than just math.

Dr. D is easily one of the greatest people I've met. When a student was nervous about a test she said "Your value as a human being does not depend on this test". She cares about each of her students. As far as grading she will give partial credit on tests, she will drop your lowest exam and replace it with a redo score . No quizzes, and lots of hw.

Tons of homework (4+hrs). Tests are a mix of application and concept (1 definition, couple complex questions). Def on the harder side, but tons of partial cred. Her lectures are pretty good considering the time frame. 5 hw dropped and lowest test score replaced with test redo avg (free A). I imagine she's even better during a normal 16 wk course

Homework assigned practically every session. She tests concepts and does have office hours, Extremely chill and will help you out if you ASK. She is extremely patient as well. Read other comments for grading exemptions. Awards you for understanding material. Difficult if you don't know how to study correctly. Lectures are easy to understand.

Wouldn't take again

like the others have said: has office hours, drops 5 lowest hw scores, tests concepts, replaces lowest test grade with grade on final if the latter is higher. she got frustrated with the class at times. her lectures were basically the lessons from the textbook, never taught more than that. she's just average.

Here's the thing: Her class is hard but doable... You just have to really work for it. She really prepares you for math if you are a STEM major. For anyone who wants to understand math in a deeper level, I suggest taking Dr. Davis; very knowledgeable in her field. She makes you understand math rather than memorize it.

You have to be REALLY on top of your work and study in order to pass this class with a B or an A because the class is fast-paced and there are a lot of assignments. Tests are rough, but it definitely doesn't contain stuff that wasn't lectured at all. Don't take this class unless you are serious about math. Otherwise, you'll have a very hard time.

Lots of homework
