He says if you do the review and the homework you're going to do well in this class. In my opinion you're not even going to get a B. You would have to dig in the book and do the problems to understand the material. He is also a tough grader. Tests are about 70% like the review, and the other 30% are problems that he expects you to know how to do.

Not bad just wished he reviewed the sections more thoroughly instead of always using powerpoints. His reviews are about 60% like the exams.

One of the best professors I have ever had. He is very kind and encouraging. Takes one step at a time so you can grasp the material. Always checks on us and asks us if we have any question. Amazing person as well. Felt blessed to have someone who actually cared .

If you enjoy math and you want to learn, this is the professor. He is amazing, he doesnt what we can to have people understand. He does get frustrated when people dont care for what he is teaching and does nothing. He is the best teacher Ive taken so far. He is transparent and communicative.

Prof. Brade truly does not care about his students and will not answer to concerns. He does not keep up with us or really take part inane teaching. He ignored my classes emails for a week and did not post any of the assignments then decided to come back and change up the schedule because he missed due dates in the absence. Unorganized and lazy.

Lots of homework

Take this professor! He is amazing. He understands if you have a problem and you can ask/tell him anything. The work is as a usual college class and you do have to put in the work but apart from that, he makes this class easy. You won't regret it!

I took this course online anytime, but the professor held optional class every Wednesday to go over some of the material, which was useful. There is a lot of work on connect math, as well as discussions, quizzes, tests for every module and one project. The reviews were helpful for the test and there wasn't much interaction but he was overall okay.

I struggled a lot with this class because I was going through a tough time, but Professor Brade was so so understanding and accommodating. So many other professors wouldn't have given me a second chance, but Professor Brade did and I am so grateful to him for that. He was incredibly patient with me, and is a real gem. Do your part and you're good.

Professor Branson is a fantastic instructor. YES this class is hard. If you are not willing to study and put in the work you will not do well. He is passionate about what he does & it comes through in his lectures, he is funny and does not take things too seriously! Do the work, study and you will be ok. Extra credit is offered for each exam.

He is such a god teacher. He works with you through difficult math problems. There is McGraw homework but its very easy, it does have a lot of questions though. He does give extra credit. Just talk to him if you have any questions with the course he is very understanding and will try to help.

Good lectures. Manageable ConnectMath homework (just do them right away and on time). Does test reviews in class. He'll take care of you, just (take notes in lectures-do homework-study- and you're all good. )

I love Professor Brade. Algebra isn't easy, but he makes things clear and simple to understand. He is so sweet and always makes sure students understand the topics we're learning. Plus, he gives us a heads-up on what to expect for the tests! I could not recommend him more.

Honestly, Professor Branson Brade is really good, his class is super simple. You just go to lectures, take notes, do your homework, and take tests. His lectures can be boring, but if you try and take notes you'll succeed. Just put in the effort.

OH MY GOSH! Yes I passed the class, but he talks too much, it's ridiculous. Every time I wanted to ask or discuss something in class, he always assumed I wanted to start an argument. He goes into chapters too quickly right after we finish an exam. He gives extra credit and he drops lowest grades to replace with higher ones, at the end of semester.

Lots of homework
