Dr. Giangrasso is one of the best professors at LaGuardia. He is very knowledeable about the subject. He gives many extra credit opportunities. There is homework every week, with answers in the back of the book where you can check your answers. There are 2 quizzes and 1 final, based on the homework.

He is a good teacher but he doesn't always let you see your grades. He 10 question "quizzes" which are really exams. If you get two wrong you're in 80's territory! Overall, OK but he can get douchy if you are pushy about staying on top of your grades. He doesn't like to have to work too hard.

Tests - have YOUR OWN CALCULATOR (w/a fraction key), pay attention to the correct decimals .0 or 0. Don't miss a class and study early and often and you'll earn an A.
