Steer clear of this professor. He is not clear in his lectures. He expects you to understand after one example is done, I learned everything about statistics from the tutors in the math lab. He left so much important information out of his lectures. Take anyone but him!

This professor is a quality prof and will grade you realistically. If you want to know how you are truly doing in the subject, you will find out. He is firm in his policy but also very helpful. Teachers like this one do not cheat you out of getting an education. I would expect a lazy student to rate him poorly.

He presents the material, but his reviews are more limited to answering questions one on one or as a class sometimes. I wish he was more proactive about reviewing what will be on the tests instead of making it more of a guessing game. This may be no different from other stats profs. Of course expect to read and reread and repeat, use tutors and hw.

This class is hard but it totally got me ready for Calculus 2. Golubski is funny and easy to understand, but his tests are pretty hard. He expects you to know all the material very well. Dont come into this class without really knowing algebra and trig!

Ill probably get downvoted by the same group of people who circles this site and sees this professor as a god, but oh well On paper the curricular can be unnecessarily hard, but it can prepare you and is good But he really made me question my worth as person. He boasted about his intelligence and can be demeaning to others, so I rarely spoke to him

Hard to ask questions to & talks about himself a lot. If the entire class fails but one person gets that A on a test, he'll use that A as a metric of the test over everyone else and say "told you its possible" Really trigger happy with point deduction on tests. Overall its like he beats you over the head and only congratulates the ones who take it

Has a bit of a snarky side and called me out for being 1min late for class, but during COVID-19 when classes went online I gained a lot of respect for him. He's been very flexible and understanding during this time. Tests are a lot like the written homework, and it is very easy to get lost in all the information, so show up as often as you can.

This professor brags a lot about his wealth and his accomplishments. Can make you feel bad about yourself if you dont understand a concept even though he always claims hes not like other rude math professors. Made Calc way harder than it needed to be. Will NOT accept HW if you submit even a min late under any circumstances. No extra credit.

If you would like to be left in the dark with lots of homework, this professor is for you. He was extremely unprofessional and failed to keep us updated through class announcements. Oftentimes I would email him and never get a response. Says he wants to make math "less scary and be there for his students" but is judgemental when answering questions

DO NOT TAKE. He almost never responded to student emails, asking for help. He said he doesn't have time to help us. He refused to explain material further when prompted. Very poor planning. Within the first month, a third of my class dropped. I'm a diligent student, but I passed because I got a tutor. I work part time. Not worth the $ I spent.

I left a bad review for Professor G a while ago. But now that I have taken precalc I realized that he only had good intentions for us. He can be harsh. He has tough policies. His exams are hard. But he will help you if you ask. And trust me, if you are weak in algebra, precalc will be awful. Do not make the mistakes I did.
