Prof Sargsyan is a nice man, but very tough grader. MATH 245 is hard enough wo having to do all the homework problems which takes 20 hoursweek. We started with 40 students, by the end 22 were left, and half of those failed. You go for help at his office, and the whole class is there with you. You basically teach yourself in this hard class!!

Emil doesn't deserve any of these bad ratings. I didn't do most of my HW on time, and I still got a B, b/c he has no problem with extending deadlines all the time. He dropped SOME assignments at the end of the semester. I had him for 8 weeks, this class was easy. Every assignment is open note. Final is 25% of grade. 4 Exams are 35% of grade. HW 20%

This 8-week course involved a significant amount of work, but it was certainly doable. The instructor was highly approachable and responsive to student requirements. The practice exams were an excellent resource and closely reflected the actual exams, which simplified the study process. Put in the necessary work, and you'll do well.

If you want to read about discrete math and be on your own. This is the class. He doesn't even provide lectures of his own nor study guides for his quizzes. Quizzes and final are proctored. You are required to do an oral presentation to "prove" you know the material even though exams are already proctored which is tedious. Overall bad

I did well but i think this class is better off with actual lectures and not so much homework. Professor takes a long time to answer your messages so keep that in mind.

Second time taking this professor; took him for calculus & stats. There are a couple of assignments each week, both the hw's and quizzes have unlimited attempts, and there is one paper. He is very accessible and helpful, responds quickly, & is willing to accommodate students. Overall, is a very supportive professor and would recommend him.

This professor assigns so much homework. I am literally doing homework all day every day with almost no breaks. Also doesn't have any of his own lectures so you're literally just paying a bunch of money to read a textbook and teach yourself

He is a really good professor, and he always answers emails when help is needed. The assignments were not that hard, as it was all based on the lab which was really helpful.

Great professor, you need to buy the book, but he gives you material to read, videos, etc. Reachable, he is very nice. He extended my homework twice and he let me retake some exams because I ran out of time. I learned a lot, very chill professor. At end of semester he dropped some assignments. He proctors with Yuja face and screen. Take him!

I did not enjoy the first two weeks of this class. his grading structure is Cengage Homework: 20%, 3 Proctored Exams:35%, Quizzes: 20%, Final:25%. I usually enjoy a hard calculus course, but this professor's course is not hard. It is annoying. assigns 4/5 homework assignments per week and a quiz steer clear from this guy, you will hate it!

I also took him for math 272. For math 265 aka math 261 he was great. He was kind and offered extra help especially since the class was live lectures. However for math 272 it was all self teach with no lectures. He can be passive aggressive if you don't know how to explain to his liking. Overall a good professor for lamc math if you listen and ask.

This professor was amazing. I enjoyed every single lecture. He always tried his best to make students engaged by participating. He was all around a great guy, he's funny and caring. He would honestly give great life advice and be willing to talk about anything. Workload wasn't that bad, nor difficult, and he was very understanding about extensions
