Class was very interesting. Rampal is funny and fun. If you find math hard take this class, everything is explained well, but you must do the homework even though it isn't mandatory. It helps a lot.
great teacher. curves tests and very helpful. funny guy. recommend him.
Okay Professor. If math is not your fav do not take. He's funny.
The guy is funny. I have to admit. He knows math too if u wanna learn it. Most of the kids in the class would sleep and he gave everyone retests even though they didnt try. nice guy. The tests are hard but if u do the reviews...it's the same questions.
Derek is pretty cool. Knows the material and is very patient when students don't understand. Emails back quickly, pretty lenient on most anything, as long as you talk to him first, he's usually always happy to help you without any hesitation. I recommend his class to anyone.
Professor Rampal is a good instructor. Speaks clearly and with confidence. He is very knowledgeable in math (which one would hope) and always willing to answer any questions a student may have in class or outside of class via email. Very funny guy and seems to thoroughly enjoy teaching. Would recommend to anyone with any interest level in math.
Professor Rampal is a good instructor. He really knows a wide range of subjects associated with mathematics. Would recommend to anyone with any interest level in math.
Professor knows math! I would recommend to him anyone.
This professor knows math. Explains how to do the problems well. Pretty funny too.
He's awesome! He speaks fast, but clear. Very understandable when things arent going well in your life, and as long as you speak to him beforehand, he is more than willing to help. He answers emails surprisingly fast! But, you do need to do the hw on your own, or you wont know what to do. Make sure to do the reviews! Test questions come from there!
Mr. Rampal, or Derek as he prefers to be call, is a very good professor. He is extremely understanding, he loves math and knows it very well.If you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask.If I had any more math classes to take he would definately be the one, he is hot!!!
good teacher. final was easy and he lets you count it as your entire grade. I only took the first test and the final and no more math!
Great professor I'm not very good in Math, but in this class I understood a lot. He explains until the last minute every class trying to make everybody understand each chapter.
Derek Rampal is a great professor. If you work hard from the beginning you will do great on this class. he will help you until the end. he is also very accessible jus e-mail him your questions and he will help. Great quality as a professor. Ill give him an A for teaching.
Professor Rampal was knowledgeable and down to earth. He often stressed the importance of coming to class and completing homework assignments. I really appreciated his expertise.
Honestly he is one of the most relaxed, understanding teachers I have had. He understands if you can't make it to class once in a while or if you have to leave a little early. If you have any questions, just email him, he's understanding and straightforward. Trig can be tough so just study, come to class, and ask questions.
Took this course 3 times and passed. Just do the reviews. I would recommend anyone to take him.
He really helped me outside of class by convincing me I can do it. First math class in twenty years and I don't think I would have passed without this instructor's help! Nice guy!
Very helpful outside of class. He should have failed me but gave me a second chance.
Derek is one of my favorite professors. I took three of his classes as a dual-enrollment student and he even welcomed me to sit in on his Calculus class which I found enjoyable. I hate waking up early, but I didn't as much mind as long as I was going to his class. He teaches at a fast pace, but as long as you put some effort in, he will as well.
easiest class ive ever taken. The people in this class can't add or subtract so he curves everything like crazy. Nice guy and curves! Easy if u do something
he answers all my questions. i email him everyday. i dont know what this person is talking about. Easy.
Makes it easy and he helps a lot out of class. Nice guy
expects you to do your work but its easy if u do. fair and kind of funny (at least he thinks he is).
If it was another teacher I would have failed. Good teach
Material in this class requires PRACTICE. Don't fall behind. He will help you through email and get back to you very quickly. No surprises in this class; complete and understand the test reviews and you'll be golden since they mirror the actual test. Grades on a very generous curve and an overall nice guy. Thanks Derek!
He is very smart and helpful. Homework is MUST. Good looking and young
The best professor EVER. Extremely helpful and caring. Do the reviews they are reflections of the tests. He makes you work hard but he is fair and curves.I highly recommend him
The best professor EVER. Do the reviews!!! Test are the same. He is very knowledgeable
We dont use mml in this course. I dont know what that person is talking about. Good teacher, Ive gotten an A on everything. Not hard. Wants to make sure you learn. Id take him again. Dont trust the angry ratings
If you do the homework and spend some time reviewing you will pass this class. He has a great sense of humor and very witty. The most intelligent math professor I have ever had. Great guy and very helpful when needed
The best MATH TEACHER at BC. You have to do HW but he is very helpful and fair
took this with him. good teacher. very easy if u do the work, students in class dont do work. he always answered questions...he just expects u to remember and hw. if u dont do ur work, dont take him
Good teacher. Test r hard. Do the practice
He is a bad professor ,he is also full of himself he feel like just because he knows it he math we automatically know it. don't let rate my professor full you guy's he is the type of professor that goes on rate my professor and do his own rates. Other wise I must admit he is cool as a guy but a teacher never again ??.
This professor is extremely helpful. He cares for all students. Thank you professor you are the best!
Unfortunately, I took the class in 8 weeks and because of this it was hard.However, Professor Rampal helped me a lot and then I was able to pass the class. Of course, if you decide to take this class just in 8 weeks, be ready to work a lot, but be sure that you will have the professor' help. I wouldn't pass without his help. Thank you professor.
Prof. Rampal is the most knowlegable and helpful teacher I 've ever had. He is hard but he curves a lot.
Best teacher for Math. Thank you Prof. Rampal
The worst class I've attended at Broward College. This professor barely teaches anything. He only answers any particular question you might have about the work. The online portion of this course is overwhelming. All classwork/homework is online. I do not recommend this course to anyone unless you are already great at math and can self teach.
The online MATH is mandatory by any teachers at BC not only by him. He knows the math the best otherwise he wouldn't be a teacher. I would highly recommend him. The most knowledgeable and helpful ever
He's the best math Professor hands down.Never had a professor explain Algebra and make it so sound easy to understand. ..He answers your email super fast, super helpful, and easy to talk to...
Derek Rampal is the best math Professor in the United States of America... God bless Professor like this, he go's beyond the call of duty for his students... Do your part and he'll do the rest.
simply a bad teacher
This is by far the worst math teacher I've ever had. He doesn't teach in a matter in which you can understand math witch sucks if your bad at math. He gives a 300 to 400 review pack for a 20 something question test. And to top it off he doesn't want you to use a calculator. If you suck at math get another teacher.
The best math teacher I 've had . Helpful, knowledgeable, easy to understand. Must do the work
Really helpful professor that actually cares if you understand the work. Willing to go beyond the call of duty. Kind of goes on about himself a lot but the stories are pretty interesting so it's not that bad. I would definitely recommend him.
He is a really cool dude made us laugh in class a lot. We did all our work on aleks but he really helped us in class with problems and he curves grades. Just work hard and do your work and you'll pass.
OMG I LOVE him he's so funny, and so FINE!!!!! He's really helpful and he curves grades. I recommend him 100%
The best teacher. Never could do any math before. Extremely helpful, caring, and fair. Plus he is good to look at
Nice guy and always willing to help BUT I HATE ALEKS! So much homework but you need it so i guess its ok. Would take again
He's a great teacher but you have to go to every class to keep up. He goes the extra mile to help his students. Would recommend you to take.
Great professor. He will let you know at the beginning of class that homework will save you from failing. Very helpful if you show interest in passing his class.
The professor doesn't reply messages right away... Since is an online class, you will work with Mastering My Lab and you'll need to expend many hours on the computer. Advises that I can give you, take this class on campus if you are not good with critical thinking and math, practice a lot, and if YOU HAVE TO take it online manage your time.
The professor answers questions VERY QUICKLY. Very surprised with the other comment. Professor assisted me very greatly and without him, theres no way i could pass.
Nice guy. He really accommodated me when my relative passed away and i was gone for weeks. Would definitely take again but online is tough. Great guy. Thank you profesor!
I would recommend Professor Rampal. He really wants you to learn but one has to be willing to study. Stats is not an easy class but once you put in the effort and time it will pay off. Amazing Professor!!
Helped me a lot. Nice guy. Lots of work because its online but it wasnt hard to get an A. Would take again.
Professor Rampal had really help me during the semester. At first, I was doing just fine but then it got confuse and he noticed it; even though I was doing bad by the end of semester, he curved my grades and I passed the class. However, you MUST like trigonometry if you are willing to pass. Anyways, I totally recommend him.
Professor Rampal is clear cut to the point. If you still don't understand how to complete your work, he will not move forward until everyone is on the same page. He has a lot of resources to provide if you need after classroom help and he more than provides the opportunity for you to try again if not correct on the first try. His goal is your goal
Great Professor, wants to see his students pass so he will go the extra mile to ensure the topic is understood. Ask questions, he responds quickly even on Sundays. He gives real world examples so its easier to grasp and remember the topics. He gets straight to the point and tells you like it is so do not expect any sugar coating from him.
The entire class is on ALEKS software and might as well have been an online class. Requires most of the work and practice to be done at home. I did not learn much and it was hard to be motivated. I don't know what I got on the final yet but I'm worried.
Professor sat in the lab for extra hours if you need help and curved the scores on the exams to help me. Taking him again for 1106 and i have heard good things
teacher sat and helped me for hours after class. spoke with my mom when she was upset with me. curved grades on certain exams and let us replace exams when we did bad. he also helped other students from other classes. nice guy. helped me outside of class too.
My favorite class last semester. CORRUPTION. I dont know how many people passed though. lol. Good guy though, easy class.
Professor helped me outside of class many time.s Nice guy.
I have had professor Rampal for many classes,The classes were extremely challenging; however, professor Rampal helped all the way. Don't be intimidated, study like a college student, listen to what he says. He curves and wants you to succeed. He always helps if you try and come to him. Do not take the class if you are lazy. Amazing professor.
Fantastic professor. He is always there for you when you really need help. ALEKS is not really necessary for a class like this, having a teacher like this. Curves every exam, no midterm, final yes. No projects or group work. ALEKS is the homework (usually due at the last day of class (not a great concept)) Exams not long at all. Recommend 100%!!!
Goes over whatever you need to help you pass - lots of life hints :)
Great teacher, expect homework but he lets you complete it at your own pace. Funny in class and really laid back guy. Cares about students and will make sure you pass as long as you put in the time and effort. I'll defiantly be taking him next semester for STAT 2023.
Easy class. teaches and lets you use the calculator. always helps you if you ask.
I did not do well with Professor Rampal's teaching style. As a student who struggles in math, he moves really fast and is not very forgiving if he sees that the entire class is not getting the topic.
Sarcastic at times and speeds through lectures. Teaches with a very dull blunt tone
not an easy class. professor explains things in an easier way than the book. Also, the professor always helped. Took him for two classes. 1033 and 2023. Both times the class was easy and I got an A because i did the testbanks he gives online. Same questions. He told us to do that. good prof.
You learn a lot from the professor but its hard with aleks the program to deal with homework. He is always accessible before and after class and cares about its students to pass. Ask anything about class he'll answer you back. Laid back and cool professor.
Very helpful and always answers every question. He replies to emails immediately . Extra knowledgable about math
Very nice professor. Always helped me outside of class. The kids in the class didnt do anything and never showed up. I dont know why he teaches at this school. Best professor i had last semester.
helped me in his tutoring. i got a 57 on the final and he still passed me. gives u a chance on the final if u fail the tests throughout the semester.
I took this as a 6 week class. He really curves the grades, so that was amazing. The test were really hard, and you have to be able to apply what you learned in order to do well. It was easier with some of the tests. It seems like it would be an easy class, but it is some difficult concepts. He made class fun for the 3.5 hours.
The best professor! I had a huge crush on him throughout the semester that was the only hard time for me specially at focusing, other than that everything was ok. He helped me a lot during his tutoring hours. Answered my questions immediately. Thanks to him I passed this class even though failed the first exam. You must study really hard!!!
He's young and funny sometimes but I would not recommend taking this Professor. The class is solely tests and online assignments on ALEKS. Really hard to pass.
Great professor. Made the class easy to pass. Curved everything a little. Could make up your tests. Grades also included class participation which he gave me a 100. Would take again.
Weird how my reviews keep getting deleted by someone when I have students to warn them not to take this professor. Good luck if your stuck with him
My favorite math teacher
Took him again. Dude talks a lot. Helped me get a code when the bookstore screwed me over.
The best I've ever had
If you put in the time and do the work this is an EASY A! That's not to say you don't have to work and show effort. I am not a math wiz, but Prof Rampal is VERY fair and gets that no one likes math, so he helps you out. I got a 95%. TAKE HIM you won't be disappointed!
Nice guy. Works with you. Replaced my bad exam score with my final exam score.
lots of homework but he helps u if u ask. make sure u ask him for hlep.
My favorite teacher. Not the easiest though!
Professor explains things quite clearly as I barely attended class and still passed but a lot of students don't goto class and then started complaining. I feel bad for him. Definitely would take him again though. He replaced my grades once I passed the final. Brought me from a b to an a. Definitely wants to make u pass if u ask for help.
Okay I need you people to be a little more specific with these review! Does this man give test reviews identical to the test? Or not! For the mac1105 class.
Prof Rampal made stats a breeze. He explains everything at a level easy enough for anyone to understand. Replaces worst test with final and is constantly stopping to make sure we all understand. If you don't do the online assignments, you wont pass the exams.
Gives you chances to make up your worst test. He curves your testes and homework. Heads up go to d2l click previous exam on the left corner and practice for the tests usually and always its the same but in different orders.
This was a math class so expect to put in work but overall Prof Rampal will work with you and he is very helpful. If he sees you trying, he will meet you half way. Do you work and go to every class.
LOVE THIS PROFESSOR. Awesome guy who wants to see you do well. Have taken him for 2 classes, received A's in both. Made the mistake of taking another math professor at broward, never again. If you learn the material and dont bomb the tests you will do well.
THIS IS ONE OF THE WORST PROFESSORS I HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED IN MY ENTIRE COLLEGE EDUCATION. He doesn't care about his students passing, he will embarrass you in class if you ask him a question that he has already covered. If you aren't good at math don't take him, his teaching method is horrible, be ready to live in the math lab!
This class was pretty easy but I took it before and failed. I really liked the blended course even though I didnt know what it was. A lot of people dropped because they didnt do their online work and I understand because I HATE ALEKS but it does teach u. Downtown is cool also.
Great Professor! You will learn in this class, he is very helpful and understanding. I didn't do well because I did not keep up with the online assignments on Aleks. As long as you study for the exams and ask for hep when you need it you will do well.
He offers tutoring. He does care and he will help if you are willing to put the effort into the class. Yes, there is homework on the computer. It will help you. If you do it. You will not pass if you do not try.
I took this as a blended class and at first I had trouble but then I ended up getting it. Since it was blended the HW was online and the tests you had to take in the testing center. You have to go to class so you can hear him explain everything unless you can teach yourself.
This class is a blended course with online hw and tests taken at the testing center. Professor Rampal provides tons of online tools to help learn the material. Watching the lecture videos before class will make lecture a breeze. Most generous professor I've had at BC in regard to grading. Rampal is a must for STA2023!
Probably the most stressful math class I've taken but I still passed with an A. Prof is cool and laid back and will replace your test scores with your new scores. Class was almost 3hrs but he would pop some of his old stories to ease the time in class. Study a lot to know the material not pass the test and work with Prof and youll do alright.
His teaching method wasnt for me, he skips steps and says it should already be known because its common sense. I personally wouldnt take him again. If you suck at math dont take him.
Professor always answers your questions. We spent the last two or three weeks reviewing for the final. If u dont like blended, dont take the class but I thought it was good for a blended class. Taking college algebra also. Will review.
I would not take this class again. Teacher has a clear grading criteria but method of teaching is not designed for people who need assistance with math. Teacher is very knowledgeable. He does try to help but again this is not a good teacher if you are not good at math
professor posts all the lectures online but no one ever watches them. considering how short the class is, he is way better than my other professor. would be very easy if i watched the videos. still got an A but only because he grades nicely. would take again.
Class is hard but he makes it easy and the grading is helpful.
if you want to learn something, this guy will help you. class was not the hardest but he puts videos and previous tests online to help you.
Professor lets you replace exams with what you get on the final. Its blended so it goes faster but he goes over everything in class on the tests. Still hard but when he replaces everything at the end, I think Im going to do ok.
Great professor, you won't regret taking his class.
I would not take this professor again. He was hurry in all classes, did not really explained the whole material, and his grading were not helpful,
Great professor, always willing to help.
I took his class cause I saw his rating and good reviews, I ignored the bad ones, didn't think I would end up writing a bad review for him. He's by far the worst professor I've ever had at BC. He rushes through class and tells you to watch vids online if you don't get it. DONT TAKE HIM IF YOU'RE BAD AT MATH. He doesn't really explain.
Professor Rampal gave great lectures and allowed us to use our calculators and taught us how to, which made our lives much much easier. Prof. Rampal wasn't so helpful outside of the classroom when I sent him emails and got non-clear responses to what was asked. Other then that, I would take him again.
Nothing short of amazing. I am so bad at math i even withdrew from my prior MAC 1105 however, he definitely notes if you are trying. I am sure if i pushed more I could have got a B . I didn't really pass final it ended up getting curved though so i ended up passing. I could never thank him enough. Changed my life I am done with that and stats!
One of the worst math teachers I have ever encountered before, he doesn't have an organized teaching style but instead just goes over topics as if they're review to everyone. He also barely covers material that will be on the test so it's up to you to teach yourself which is frustrating if you're normally not good at math. DON'T TAKE HIS CLASS!!
First Math Professor I had in BC who was very difficult. He acted like he didn't want to be there. He will say if you need the help you can ask but his demeanor said otherwise. He will assure you, you are fine when asking and at the end acts like he don't know what you are talking about. Cannot be trusted, so better you don't take his class.
Made it hard for students, especially during distant learning ,
Let me start off with how HORRIBLE of a professor this man is. This whole semester I had to teach myself to understand everything we were doing in class. He is very unprofessional and is very rude too. I advise you on not wasting your time with this man! If you have to take MGF1106 and he's the only professor left, just wait until next semester.
This guy just doesnt care, dont take this class unless you want something to fall asleep to.
Prof. Rampal seems like a competent teacher at first. Don't let that fool you. While he acts like he knows the material, he doesn't, and is learning it while you are. His classes are just long lectures/rambles, and I can't remember a single time he prepared for a class. Tough Tests, funny part is he doesn't know how to solve the questions either.
Prof. Rampal's MGF 1106 is a very easy class. All you have to do is just watch the videos from MathLab and do the hw and take the test (extremely easy). Attendance is not mandatory at all. There is no cumulative final and he gives ALL EXTRA CREDIT on ALL TESTS. So, you can get a C- on a test, and with the extra credit, get an A (happened to me).
I suck at math and it was flying over my head. Then I realized that I don't understand anything in class. And I also realized that all my knowledge was from the homework assignments on MML. So, I stopped attending class and kept doing the homework. He gives so much extra credit! OMG! I got a 99% for this class. A must take professor.
I'm not going to lie, I barely attended class and I literally passed his class with an A. NOT BECAUSE IM GOOD AT MATH. I literally passed the final and he passed me with an A. You can literally do a terrible job throughout the whole class but if you participate in class and pass the final YOU'RE GUCCI.
Professor Rampal really knows his material. He is laid back but is still to be respected and does like you to participate. He will move quickly, so if there is something you don't understand, you need to speak up and he will elaborate or review. The class was homework and exams. He curves the grades at the end so do not panic. Do the homework!
Currently taking Professor Rampal, & even without finishing the course I can tell you I learned little to nothing from him. learned more from the videos (he provides which is A LOT of videos to watch,) I havent ever heard him give out extra credit. and his final is your permanent pass/fail. doesnt matter what your grade is in class/assignments.
great teacher when you ask questions. Ask lots of questions. Really helps during lecture
DO NOT TAKE HIM. IGNORE GOOD REVIEWS. I participated all semster, asked for help, worked my butt of on MyLab and now im not even sure if I will pass. He is not nice at all and is really arrogant. DO NOT DO IT SAVE YOURSELF TIME AND MONEY!!
He is a great professor. I took this class twice before and it was so much easier the way he explained it. He answered all of my emails and he's definitely a nice person. I don't know about these negative reviews but I am taking him again in the fall.
I dont know who negatively rate Professor Rampal but he is the BEST. I literally struggled with this class took it twice until I took it with him. He explains the material well and will definitely help you if you need it. I wish every professor was like him. As long as you show up do the work and participate you will pass.
Professor just let me make up my test 2 and final because of issues with my fam and covid. I had to drop the other classes but he took the time to explain me that I can set this up w him. Good guy. Thanks teach! Hopefully I see u again soon!
Stick with it and you will pass. Took this class 3 times and now Im finally graduated. Dont know about these reviews. Would take again.
i wish i listened to negative reviews. his lectures consist of prewritten work that he won't explain well. he will talk like u know the material already. the videos in his content are from the 90s and from the lectures just recorded on zoom. he does curve grades and is down to earth but before that he'll mostly blame u for not keeping up.
The videos online are great. He repeats weekly that students need to watch the videos but none of the other students are watching them. If you watch the videos and do the reviews, the course is easy. The tests are the same as the reviews and the videos explain everything in detail.
I would not recommend this teacher at all unless youre already good in math. He flys by the material and makes you feel dumb when you ask a question. He is very arrogant and only does favors for students he connects with. He makes this course harder than it needs to be. STAY AWAY if you love your sanity.
Save yourself the headache/stress. This professor does not care about his students passing. I literally needed this class to graduate this semester and I had to drop it because there was no passing opportunity or support from him. Grade is based on 5 test (70% of total grade) and hw's (30% of grade). U would get a 0 for not showing ur hands in test
Great professor, gives you everything you need to succeed. WATCH THE VIDEOS he gives you. Im telling you the people that dont pass his class, simply didnt listen to him and utilize the tools he gives you. This class takes time and effort, if you dont try in this class dont blame the professor.
I just finished this class and I had an A on everything except the final, on every test he gave us 3 hr for 40 questions, on the final he gave us 70 questions and only 3 hr, it was awful, I could respond 15 questions, and he responded the emails days later, even when it was an emergency, DONT TAKE THIS PROFFESOR.
The course itself isn't bad if you know how to teach yourself. USE THE EXAMPLESS ON HW!! Some of the tests include information that was not taught through textbook. Professor himself barely interacts with online students. There are no discussions luckily. Just seems like theres always hw or a test to do.
Just as everyone said previously, watching the videos is imperative. I didn't find him any more difficult than any other professor but the material itself was difficult. As long as you stay up with deadlines and watch the instruction videos, you can pass.
Great class.
Excellent professor. Fair. Math is hard. He doesn't think so, bc he was a child genius! Everything he teaches in college level math, he learned in 5th grade! Tells great stories. 5 tests, no midterm, no final, no EC. He drops the lowest hw & test. His English is perfect for those who have trouble understanding teachers with accents.10/10 recommend
Great professor just take him in person. Needless to say last online class that I take for math or science.
This professor has some pros and cons to him. A con is the way he speaks to students. He can come off a little harsh and make you feel slow sometimes. However, he teaches the material well, mostly. It is a lot of homework, so be sure to pace yourself. Assignments are spaced out nicely though.Participation is mandatory. Also helps outside of class.
He's not supportive when asking for help on hard material and will speak to you down when asking for help. He is very strict on due dates and expects you to turn in homework in one day. Tests are very HARD. A lot of professors are caring and understand you have other classes and full-time jobs, this professor does not care. Do not take this class.
He is AMAZING! By far one of my favorite p
By far one of my favorite professors! He truly cares about you but yoy have to care for yourself! You have to put in the work. Come to class, participate, do the hw , test prep and quizzes! He is funny and has plen
If you already know and love math, this is your profesor. If you are more into humanity and psychology, avoid it. He lectures as if you already knew, he is arrogant, and I did not felt comfortable partecipating in class, or asking questions (he makes you fell dumb). I needed this Course to graduate. final he give 75 min to complete 40questions.
I took Session 4, so from March 12 to May 5th, I did probably around 100 Stats questions per week but honestly, just do the Test Review and then do the test, you'll be fine. Take his longer session if you need more time per week but overall, just tests and homework and that's it. No discussions or anything, just math problems.
His multivariable calculus is so easy to get an a+ and he is a very nice professor as well. GOAT RAMPAL!!!
The tests are super hard, and almost all of them are NOT multiple choice. I heard he ended up making the tests so that you could retake them as many times as you want as long as it was turned in on the due date, but even so, many struggled to get a decent grade. Not lenient. Fail a test or two and your grade is done for. I'm so glad I withdrew.
Professor made class convenient for working students at night. He wrote me a letter of recommendation for UF and I got in! Thank you professor!
The instructor offers minimal support, leading to an 80% dropout rate. If you're struggling, don't expect extra help or credit, as the professor is unwilling to assist. Many students are facing significant challenges. I recommend seeking a different professor for a more supportive learning experience.
not a good professor
Good person; gave me advice on how to study. Extremely hard class. Exams once a month. Nice enough to drop the lowest exam score.
Very easy and fun class. All the questions were somehow obvious.
Nice teacher and a good class
If you're not good at math and it takes you a little bit more help to be successful in math courses, this is not the guy for you. He teaches pretty fast and asks if anyone is confused, but if you say yes, prepare to feel like an idiot. Despite that, he was chill, kind of funny, not very empathetic, but an alright guy.
The only thing I could say about this professor is that he was a funny person. In my class, he definitely made a lot of people nervous to answer during his lectures. If you answer him wrong, be prepared to feel dumb, because he will make you feel like you know nothing. He expects you to know everything, even after only doing one question.
Avoid this person at all costs
Professor helped me when I needed it and wrote me a letter to get into UF. Will keep in touch with professor, he's a good one.
