Really boring, the classic absent minded college professor. Math smart but tough to stay awake.

i hate calc but he dosent hate me for it. he was a good teacher and kept my interest most of the time even though calc hella blows.

Class started out bad, but through class suggestions it has changed for the better. He now gives out study guides before tests, is clearer when lecturing, started a study group and is available anytime he's not teaching to answer questions. He is also open to student suggestions to make his teaching better.

This class is not an easy class, and he is not an easy grader. Every one in the class have to work very hard.

I liked his class. I never studied and got an A in the class. He is willing to help students on his free time. He is not for everyone though, many kids in the class didn't catch on to what he was teaching.

If you're not a fast learner and can't catch on really quickly, this isn't the teacher for you. He's good if you're quick and good at math. He's very willing to help if you need it and he hands out a study guide before tests that is REALLY helpful. I am getting an A so far, so he must be doing something right.

Really nice guy. Willing to help. The problem with this is he needs help teaching. A LOT of help. Be prepared to learn from the book and learn how to use your calculator. Exams do NOT reflect notes/homework. Allows 1 full pg. back and front & has study guides for Exams but this doesn't really help either. Good luck taking his class.

He knows what he is talking about, but can get a bit boring. Not a good speaker, but can explain things in multiple ways. I found this class quite easy since I've done statistics before, but if you have no background in it, you might find it tough. He does allow one page of notes for tests, which makes them relatively easy.

His class was fine for the student who wants A. If you do homework and ILC assignment, you'll get good grade on test. I just reviewed homework and assignment before test and got over 90 on every tests. When you are stuck, ask him! You need to make yourself clear. He helps you.

I just have to say he is an awesome guy, super easy to get along with. Wants his students involved and if you try really hard w/o a doubt you can get at least a B if not better. I missed two weeks of class and I still passed. If you think he's hard then go ahead and take another pre-cal prof. Let me know how it works out lol.

Badal is a good teacher yet sometimes he can be confusing. However, that being said, he will answer all your questions and will help you with anything you need help on. But doing all the homework and going to class is a must. Other then that, he tells you what will be on the test and gives practice problems before the test.

Mr. Badal you are seriously the best teacher ever. I got a B in your class and all i did was pay attention and go to class. (I hope you read this because you rock) He really wants you to do well and he's so nice. He gives you a study guide before the test and its literally almost the test. Tell him if you don't understand and he'll go over it again

Mr. Badal is a good teacher! I failed though (by 1/2 pt) because I was struggling personally and my attendance was poor. I have a pretty good understanding of math and was able to follow along pretty well in his class when I attended. Study guides are provided for the test, just don't expect it to match the test material. Know your stuff and STUDY!

Badal was a pretty good math teacher. It was a cut and dry class, nothing fancy. He just walked you through the problems on the projector. Gets distracted easily, goes on tangents. Expect cheesy (but sometimes funny) jokes and puns. Uses Mathlab for homework and quizzes. He is a really nice guy and will help if you ask for it.

I took statistics in high school the year before I took this class which made it easy. The MyStatLab homework is easy and straight forward and it's possible to get 100% every time. Tests are easy if you do the study guides he hands out. He always offers extra help if you need it. Lectures were kind of boring.

Mr. Badal was great. He gives worksheets every meeting about the topic we're about to cover and before exams he gives out review exercises which is almost going to be similar to the exam that he gives. Really helpful!

I thought Badal was an amazing math professor. He allows you to have cheat sheets during all this test which is really helpful and always provides you a study guide which is really an exact duplicate of the test. I always struggled with math, but taking it with him actually made it really easy.

He is a very caring teacher, he says a lot of corny jokes that were actually kind of funny. He would take his time to explain and is always willing to help. I hate math but I passed with a B because I did all my homework and actually payed attention. Great instructor if you actually do the work, but not if you are lazy.

Mr. Badal genuinely wants his students to pass and do well. He gave us so many extensions when the quizzes and homework were due. He's also really funny but the most students in my class didn't pay attention so it wasn't received well. It's a shame since he really is a good teacher. He will definitely help you any way he can if you ask.

Badal is a good teacher. He wants the class to have decent grades and thus does everything in his reach to make that possible. He provides cheat sheets on tests with an additional sheet every test. Unlimited attempts on HWs, 3 attempts on quizzes. The tests are almost the exact same as the study guides. Should be an easy A for hardworking students.

He's a little awkward but he's so so nice! He makes the class pretty fun to go to and he's super caring and make the study guides for the test super similar to the test. Definitely recommend him!

Mr. Badal was seriously my fav professor. He was very understanding of everybody's situations, and would not only help with stats, but also with life. Go to class, do the homework and online quizzes on time, participate, and ASK FOR HELP IF YOU NEED IT. Mr. Badal is very helpful, and his study guides are basically his exams. Take his class!

Great guy! fair amount of homework. Lab can be painful but if you just ask, he'll tell you exactly what to do. quizzes are online and you get multiple tries. All the questions on the quizzes are from homework. PRACTICE EXAM IS EXAM! do homework and study the practice exam easy A. 1% extra credit on the course if you spend require time in math lab.

He's a very sweet guy, and he really truly cares for your grade. Tries to work with you if you have unexpected problems in your life affecting school. Easy class as long as you study those study guides. Literally the same thing as the exam but changed numbers. Homework is fairly easy, make sure to stay on top of it cause it's easy 20% of your grade

His lectures are pretty straight forward. Corny jokes here & there, but he really does show that he cares about you & your grade. The homework in his class was much more difficult than the test. The study guide is very similar to your test. Do it backwards and forwards until you get it. Drops lowest test & he offers 3% extra credit. Business Major.

Badal was one of my favorite community college professors. I got an A in his class because I studied for the lectures and got an A on all his tests. I would recommend him to anyone.

The material itself is very difficult, he teaches stats and calc, but every class is lecture for 30 mins, then he helps everyone but you have to ask, if you don't you won't pass. The study guide is the same as the test, so do that and you'll get an A. HW allows unlimited tries but there are 2 a week at least, whole sem to do them. Badal was my fave

i took busn calc w/ prof badal. he is very understanding and pretty lenient. hes always happy to help and work with you on the work, due dates, and time constraints. as long as you do most of the work and try, youll do good! plus he allows cheat sheets on tests and there are extra credit opportunities.

The biggest sweetie. May not be the most clear with lectures, but I had him for Business Calculus (only 6 chapters) so given that it wasn't a lot of material compared to other maths, I got the gist. He's the absolute nicest and is absolutely ready to explain anything if you need extra help. He never makes you feel bad for being behind or confused.

Professor Badal is a great professor. If you pay attention to his lectures and ask questions stats will be a breeze for you. He's always willing to help after class and on lab days. He gives a study guide pretty much like the test, study that and you will be golden. Homework is due on test days, and easy quizzes. Plus he's a nice and funny guy!!

Professor Badal is AMAZING! I recommend him to everyone and not just for Math40. There are pop quizzes but take good notes and you're good (show up to class). He also lets students work together on quizzes. The study guide looks exactly like the test. Allows notes for test and final! He is available outside of class and no way you can't pass.

Professor Badal is a great Math teacher! He does his best explaining the material during the time of virtual learning. More than anything he is understanding and gives time on homework. For quizzes and exams he gives you two attempts & enough time with the second attempt only working on the incorrect answers. Thnx to him I understand Stats!

Professor Badal was awesome. I had his course at 8 am online for my first semester of college! He did a great job teaching us. Class participation was low, but I learned a lot. We used Connect Math on the McGraw Hill website for homework and tests. He offered retests and drops your lowers test grade! Amazing guy, makes a lot of puns and jokes!

Professor Badal is amazing!! I took his class last semester and I really enjoyed it. Everything he taught is easy to understand. He gives enough time for students to do the homework, quizzes, and tests. I definitely would like to take his class again!

Great professor to have. Boring lectures sometimes but you get used to it. Its fun when you participate! Whether you laugh at his humor or not you have to at least appreciate it. Kind professor, takes time to explain if you have questions. Makes sure he is available to help always. Gracious. So grateful to have him for this subject!

Badal is one of the sweetest teachers I have had at Las po. I'm not sure if his teaching style was 100% for me but I think it would've been more engaging in person and I took on zoom. I still learned everything though. He is very accommodating if you need to turn in late work and he will help you out if you ask. Very quick response to emails too.

I LOVE BADAL!!!!! PLEASE TEACH BUSINESS CALC I NEED YOU!! But seriously Professor Badal is a great professor and if you need to take stats take his class.

Badal was really chill, quizzes were actually similar to practice tests.

Very easy going professor and because of that the class is not hard either. You have multiple weeks to finish homework assignments and quizzes. Tests are literally just the quiz questions with different numbers and you can have a page of notes for the exams. Stats is not bad at all. I thought I would fail but Badal made it easy and enjoyable!

I took this class in summer which is why it was very intense, yet I got a B. I think Taking his class during a normal semester would be much easier! however, if u decide to take this async, then get ready to explain and teach yourself everything, literally. he gives videos that explain things for each section, but with no relevance what so ever.

I really liked this class! I was intimidated at first but it ended up being somewhat easy. The homework is easy if you read the free textbook he provides as well as the youtube videos that go along with the lessons. Just be on top of your work and you'll be good!

The course is organized. Assignments are strongly based on videos attached to each lesson so they are quite easy to understand. Late work can be submitted up until finals week. Provides a practice test identical to the final. Takes a day or two to respond to emails so if you have questions, make sure to ask ahead of time. Stay on top of assignments

Great professor, but difficult class due to the subject. Like many other students have said, you can turn things in as late as you want as long as it's before the final; but don't procrastinate because it can get out of hand really quick. The quizzes are literally the same as the exams (just different numbers) so be sure to keep retaking them.

Professor Badal actually made Stats quite fun and a bit easier. Since it was fully asynchronous you did have to pay close attention to the material given and teach yourself a bit but he gives lots of room for late work and is very understanding!

Excellent professor! Calculus II was asynchronous. Tons of homework and exams were moderate. Follow the review quizzes, and you will do great on the exams. Professor Badal, you rock!

He is a really great professor ane you can tell he cares about his students. Attendance is mandatory, he drops after 4 unexcused absences. You got the whole semester to submit online quizzes and homework, for tests you're allowed 1 paper front and back for notes. His lectures aren't always the clearest imo but the textbook does a good job helping.

Pretty chill professor that communicated well during the summer course. There are about 11 chapters worth of assignments on MyOpenMath and the exams are nearly identical as the homework assignments, just worded differently. There are 4 labs that are 10% of your grade and 3 plus the final exams which are 40% of your grade.
