Great Teacher!!! Very energetic to teach and loves doing so unlike most professors I've had. Always glad to go over problems with you and is always available for more help outside of the classroom! Overall a great teacher that loves to teach and cares

loves to teach. great attitude, and energy.

Good guy, easy in comparison to others. I got a C in HS calc, got an A in this guys class. He knew we weren't math/sci majors, so he didn't expect a ton out of us. Def too smart to be teaching business calc and the accent can be tough, but a good prof.

He was my favorite teacher and he also is the best teacher I've had so far at Suffolk. He explains the material very well and he's always willing to help. I highly recommend you take him if you have the opportunity. Trust me, you won't regret it!

He is a very nice guy and good teacher.

He does a good job of going over all the material and making sure you understand it. He'll always be willing to answer your questions, especially in math support. His tests are hard but they are graded on a ridiculously generous scale (anything over a 70 is an A... wtf!?!)

he is brilliant. A little hard to understand sometimes but he wants everyone to succeed. He goes over all the material well and knows when you get extra help. I am horrible at math and got an A- in this class. He is a very, very caring and understanding man and a great teacher.

He is a good teacher and always answers your questions. He is smart and tries to teach the class his way

i love him!!!!!

He is a great teacher and its not his fault that math sucks so bad

Seems wayy too smart to be teaching our math class. Makes me feel bad when people don't pay attention because I feel like it really is hurting this man's feelings. He is compassionate, but gets very frustrated if you don't show effort/improvement. I like him.

Great Guy, knows material is hard and challenging. gives scale on everything to help. Doesn't take attendence, will only learn ur name if u raise hand. Has a russian accent,can be difficult at times,writes all over the board,have to pay attention. Should of gotten a B but got an A cause of his scale.Wants you to succeed. try hard and u will do fine

Great teacher.. Never been in one of his classes but he helps me out in the Math support centre. Always so clear i get the concepts so quick when he explains.. great guy too. friggin thumbs up for him..

Overall a decent guy--has a strong Russian accent, talks very loud & will go through material fast in class. If you come to class (he never takes attendance though) & take good notes, he gives you examples just like the exams & you'll do fine. He also considers an 80 an A. All exams are open note & he allows you 2 sheets of notes for the final.

This guy is a really good teacher. I had him for pre-calculus, and I really feel like I actually learned something. GO to class, take good notes, and do the homework he requires, and you should be fine. He just wants his students to do well. At times he can be a little hard to understand, but just ask him to clarify and he will.

Many of his students think he is hard to understand because of his accent, but he is a great teacher and is very knowledgeable of the subject; very flexible

I think he is a good teacher with good intentions. Very knowledgeable. Although at times it may be hard to follow you just need to dedicate your mind to the class and attend. His accent isnt a problem either, he is very understandable.

great professor, really wants all students to do well. considers anything above an 85 an A, and anything above a 40 to be passing. encourages students to go to math support, and is usually there to help. would definitely take him again if i was taking any more math classes

this is an awesome man, he goes on a lot about russia and how terrible the US is, but not only is it funny, but its true.. hes a really good professor, really knows how to teach, and it is up to you to ask him when something is unclear and he will definitely help you out. i would take him again hes a really good teacher and i enjoyed his classes

honestly the best teacher I have had at Suffolk. He is always willing to spend time with you to help you out. Very funny guy which makes class fly by. Clarifies everything before going on. Grading scale over a 40 is passing and anything over a 70 is an "A" which is REALLY easy to achieve. All tests open note and hw can be passed in at any time. : )

Edgar is very hard to understand at first because of his Russian accent and always has a smile on his face. He is very helpful and he understands that not everyone is a great mathematician. He scales his grades so you can still pass with a 40 average and get and A with and 80 average. I like him and you should take his class.

Great Professor!!! Really looking out for the students. You just have to put in the work and go over the material before class or else you won't get it because he goes mach one in class. Attending math support really helps as well. Overall i would recommend him if you just put in some work. Great Prof & great attitude/personality.

This is the only rating I have typed because this professor is my most memorable. I hadn't touched math since high school algebra and I did very well in his course. It's very fast-paced but he's great at explaining things and is very helpful when you don't ask a stupid question about something that was covered weeks ago.

Very nice teacher with a Russian accent so he is hard to understand. Good intentions but difficult class, he really knows his stuff and is passionate about math.

I had professor Karapetian for Calculus 2 at Northeastern University. He is a funny guy and really wants his students to succeed. Every quiz, midterm, and final are open note. I recommend him!

Professor Karapetian definitely cares about his students doing well in Calculus for Business and Economics. If you have taken a calc course before then it will be an easy A, if not you might have a little more trouble because he is not the most clear. However, he always answers any questions and lets you use notes for quizzes, midterm and final.

Karapetian is a great guy, he is passionate about math and really knows his stuff. We had four quizzes, one midterm, and a final. The midterm and final are pretty easy if you study for them. But he makes the quizzes and homework hard to get you ready for the midterm and final. He scales grade like crazy. If you know math you'll get an easy A.

He is by far the best teacher I have ever had, he also by far the smartest i have ever had. He is always fair and will take the time to help you if you try your best in his classes. If you don't try he will help you but the ones who do try will come first to him.

I took Edgar's Calculus for Business and Economics class at Northeastern University. He is a sweet guy, with a heavy accent but good intentions. The only issue was that sometimes he got really off topic or was not willing to explain things more than once forcing you to go to office hours where he would be VERY helpful. Overall great professor.

Dr. Karapetian is a very talented prof in mathematics and applied physics. Fortunate to be born in Armenia, he accomplished a great deal of education in his home country as well as Russia, United States, and later received his PHD in Montreal. Makes his topics crystal clear and will not move on until the entire class understands the material.

Great Professor. Funny, Do not have to go to class (he does not care).

Many complain because he actually makes you work but He just wants you to UNDERSTAND the topic. He was always available outside of class for my questions. I took him for calc 2. Attendance was not mandatory. Your grade was based on 2 tests and a final. Go to class and do the homework, and youre good.I learned more in his class than any other.

He gives passionate lectures. He knew how to convey the information and force his students to think in novel ways to solve problems. Homework and attendance are optional, but both are recommended if you want to pass. Class was graded based on midterm and final, but at his discretion (aka he boosted a lot of grades) and the curve was very generous

Prof Karapetian is a great teacher. He makes sure that his students truly understand the concepts that he is teaching. He is always available to help if you need it and is quite funny. His quizzes are easy as he gives you the questions that will be on the quiz beforehand.

Edgar is the most genuine guy I have ever met. He has an excellent sense of humor and is an exceptional calculus teacher. W man

Professor Karapetian knows the material he is teaching very well, but it's not fully reflected in his teaching. He moves very quick and doesn't explain too well so if math isn't your strongpoint, you will struggle. If you show up, you will NOT fail, but doing well is hard. You don't use the textbook except for the hw, and it's $110, so you need it.

I enjoyed the class but I know people who didn't and I can see why. It's clear that he's knowledgeable on the subject and he tries his best to teach it but sometimes he can go a bit fast and there were times when I got lost. Honestly, if you show up to class and do the work you should be fine. He loves questions so don't be afraid to asked them.

Edgar can be very hot and cold. He is hard to get used to as sometimes his teaching can come off as condescending. He also has a thick accent which is a bit difficult to get used to. However, if you participate and do well he will love you. His tests were super easy and straightforward, although I did take it as an accelerated summer course.

Slight heavy russian accent. If you don't come to the lectures you will fail. He doesn't go by syllabus at all. Go to OH - super helpful. Kind to those in the front. Will yell at you if you miss class (he will know if you don't collect your quiz). Harder class but preps you better for the final than the other professors. I liked him

Best professor in northeastern university. Cut to the chase, did not mess around and really wanted students to succeed. If you go to the classes its an easy A as he says basically whats gonna be on the test. Would recommend him if you are not sensitive and can handle reality.

I'm taking him for numerical methods at NEU. I think he's great! Very caring, ample office hours and explains everything clearly. Lectures at upper-level courses are unique in the sense one should read the lecture notes beforehand, and the lecture itself is more advanced/example-driven. I think this maybe threw people off.
