easy class just have to ask questions-willing to explain-and do the homework-most of my classmates failed in his class due to not doing the homework which hurt them.Took him twice end with B,A.Would recommend will try to take for 1314 and 303

If your the kind of students who doesn't like going by the book then this prof might be the one for you. however, u must take the initiative to come up to him/ask questions if u don't understand what he is explaining. he will be glad to answer any of your questions. i think he's a good prof.

Very easy!Tells you whats on the test.Allows you to use cheat sheet on test.Just pay attention & ask if you don't understand.Easy A if you put in the little effort you need to.

He tricks us into learning things by going on and on about misc. stories which are quite amusing... theres lots of homework in this class but he will help you with anything youre struggling with :)

LMAO!! anyone that fails this class works hard to do so. Mr. Buswald doesn't tell you, but all the examples he does on the board= The test. If you write them down, you know the whole test! He is old and tells some corney jokes, but you have to be SERIOUSLY lazy to fail this class.

He gives extra credit to those who point out minor mistakes in lecture. He is very helpful and clear. All problems on tests and quizes come from the notes! If you participate in class he gives you extra points on tests! I would take him again.

He is very easy and basic. Whatever he does in class is on your test. The problems are very easy and not tricky and tells you exactly what is on the test. i would take him again hes alright.

he is reallu funny and nice.

He was the best math teacher that I had at SAC, and as you may know SAC has alot of crappy ones. He tries so hard to make everyone understand the material. I would definitly take his class again!!!!

This is the second class I've had with Mr. Busald and he is a great teacher. If he makes a mistake and you correct him you get a point added to your next test! He is very concerned with the understanding the students have of the material and will help you at your request, he will bend over backwards to help you understand if your having problems.

my favorite profesor so far...i love the way he teaches ...very patient and he is so smart ....he knows mnay shortcuts to solve problems that made everyting so much easier for me ...and he has a way of explaining so that evryone understands and if you dont understand he will walk you through it again...he is also really funny...( i took him twice

Very flexible, will alow students to attend class on other days he teaches the class, gives very good test reviews which if study should make good test grade, gives students a chance to get extra points 4 test, got feeling that he cares about students strugle with work, raising kids & school, likes students to be on time & wants all drinks in class

Great teacher! All you have to do is pay attention, take notes and ask questions in class to receive an "A" People who dont like him are the ones who sleep in class. Does great reviews for test and if you correct him in class you receive 1 point added to your test grade...Highly recommended!

In statistics class..will let you have a cheat sheet for test and final exam and with calculator ti-83 or ti-84 calculations are done for you, just have to make good cheat sheets for calculator steps..GREAT TEACHER..Just remember statistics is lying with numbers..Big Tobbaco Co used statistics to lie about smoking and lung cancer for years.

I was so scared to take College Algebra but this Awesome Teacher made it easy. He's a nice and excellent teacher!! I've always struggled with Math and I made a B in summer school!! Awesome....Trust me, you should take College Algebra with Mr. Busald!!

I've always struggled with Math. Mr. Busald is the MOST HELPFUL Teacher ever. You'll learn alot. Take him over anyone else, you will be soooo glad you did!! He's also an extremely nice man!!

awesome teacher

I hate math but he made it very easy. I got an A. He is very helpful & tells you exactly what he wants on the test. He also showed you how to do cool things with your calculator.

Mr Busald is a very nice man. Class was very boring. He is very smart and likes to show it. The reviews are what make this class. He tells you exactly what will be on the test. He sometimes even uses the review prob on the test. Highly recommend showing up for class every day. You get extra benefits for attendence.

If you want to take Statistics and not really learn it, then Prof. Busald is your man. Attendance is small part of grade. You're allowed a front and back cheat sheet for each test. He teaches you how to use the calculator for each problem. He gives you a version of each problem for each review. How people don't make A's in his class baffles me.

Great teacher. Gives appropriate homework (quantity and quality...not busy work). Reviews thoroughly for test. Doesn't disregard the fact that math doesn't always come easy. Makes class fun! Great sense of humor and style ;)

Professor Busald is the perfect kind of teacher for pre-College Algebra math. He breaks things down into baby steps so that people who are not mathematically inclined can grasp the subject matter. Admittedly a bit easy, allowing some questions from the final to be omitted, one low test grade to count for signifigantly less than the others.

Professor Busald is as awesome as they say... As long as you show up, stay awake and take notes prior to test time, there's NO WAY you should make anything less than an A. I mean, a cheat allowed for each test? Stats was a piece of cake. Thank you, Prof!

Great overall prof. If you are not into Math, and Stats is not easy, you should take this prof. You must come to class attendance is graded, you have to follow along and study the review and you will do great and learn a great deal as well. A bit boring at times but again, its the material. I never thought I would make an A in stats, but I did.

Mr. Busald is the BEST teacher I have ever had! He makes math easy and interesting. Everything that I learned in his class is still in my head and very helpful for Calculus and so on. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!!!

he is an awesome professor. all u have to do is study for his tests and his test are basically the problems he the class right before the test

GPA booster. 100% attendance grade if u don"t miss. Review is test exactly, just numbers are changed. 2- sided cheat sheet. See if u need your book after the first test. Many got by w/out it. Assigns homework but only slow people did it. Whole course is based on knowing how to use calculator. No past math is required!!

Prof. Busald is helpful. Attend review before test and you will do well. Let you use a calculator and information sheet on test. Do assigned homework and ask questions.

prof. busald is such a good teacher. took him this summer and i passed with an A. he's pretty clear in what he teaches. the review before the test is pretty mmuch what the test looks like and he lets you use calculators on the test. overall really good teacher the only thing that sucked was he went over new material before the test. but still good

Prof. Busald is a very good and easy teacher! The class gets a little boring sometimes, but he tells you exactly what will be on the test. He reviews the test he used last semester the day before the test, which is the same thing as the test but he changes the numbers. Also, you're allowed to use a two sided cheat sheet. Very easy class, easy A. :)

Take him for Statistics! Homework is not taken up for a grade. There are 3 tests and a final. You are allowed to use a 2-sided "help" sheet on each test--and allowed to use them all on the final as well. I've made 100's on every test--and I would not define myself as a "math person". As for his teaching style- he goes at an easy pace, very helpful.

Mr Busald is a great math teacher. He explains everything in a way everyone understands, and if you don't get it, he'll go over it until you do. 3 tests plus a final of which he goes over and reviews all the questions for each test. I took him for math 1314 and highly recommend him.

Mr. Busald is a very good College Algebra teacher. Lessons very good, very instructive. He uses the textbook only for Homework problems and to read from every now and then. I would highly recommend taking his class for College Algebra 1314.

Great teacher for a very boring subject.

Very good professor!!Very clear and helpful.His reviews are very similar to the actual tests.If you listen to him and go over your notes you will definitely get an A.I wish he was teaching 1325.I would love to take him again!

Good teacher. Has some great shortcuts to some problems. You might understand sometimes but if you get stuck, just ask for help. Awesome reviews, like tests. Attendance is 20% of your grade so that's a plus. Homework is not graded but do it and you'll get an A.

great teacher. i hate math and he mad it really clear and thorough on how to solve it. Funny guy, been at sac for a long time. Really nice and helpful I ask a lot of questions and he was very helpful in showing me how to get the solution. highly recommend. and attendance is 20% of the grade.

Very helpful,nice an funny, has 3 Tests and Final, Attendance is part your grade. Its important to take notes, if math is not your forte then take this professor, he really cares about you learning and is willing to do help you every step of the way in order for you to be comfortable with math.

Great professor. If you call him out on a mistake he gives you 2 (gotchya) points on your next test. Those could come in handy. Test are almost like the review. If he was teaching a 1325 Math course, I'd definitely take him. Got an A! :)

Great teacher! Sweet old man with a sense of humor. Sometimes I'd get a little lost because he'd show you several different shortcuts which were sometimes pointless As long as you show up for class, pay attention and take good notes on review days you can get an A easily! The tests are exactly like the reviews with just a few numbers changed.

He is great. TEsts are fair. Do the homework, you will need the book. He is willing to help if you need it. He is a fair grader. If you study and put the effort into the class you'll definitely pass with an A. He is super nice. Best math professor i have taken ever.

Mr. Busald is pretty great. he has a good sense of humor so it sure does lighten the mood. You are taking math after all. He basically dumbs everything down. I took MATH 1314 with a different teacher and it was a train wreak, But he made everything seem very simple. The test are fair, he always does a test review the class before.

Mr. Busald is an easy A for Stat. In the beginning he gives homework but not mandatory/graded. He goes over every problem before the test and allows a Cheat Sheet, just don't call it that, for every exam including the final. GPA booster!

I love that he does reviews before the test which really helped alot. I got an A in the class. I must say attendance is MANDATORY! its 25% of your grade. So if you show up everyday it will forsure bring up your grade. I would recommend taking him.

He is awesome! He goes step by step on the calculator so you can write everything down. If you have a problem with your calculator he is very willing to help you figure out what went wrong.His tests are easy if you pay attention and take good notes. The memory sheets help a lot. He is a nice guy who is very helpful.

Dont waste $ on textbook. He says you need it, but I never opened it once. Grade based on test, participation, & final. Lowest test grade only counts as 10%. He goes over test the day before & tells you EVERYTHING step by step. Allows 1 sheet of paper with notes during test. EXTREMELY boring class though, he talks wayyy to much. BRING YOU COFFEE.

Don't buy the book you won't use it. He gives you what he wants you to learn. Always write down his notes. He gives a review before every test and the final, that's almost the same as what's on the actual test he gives. Boring class, easy teacher I got an A and I'm terrible at math. You do need connect math for his class

Easy class, and textbook not necessary unless you are the type that need to do extra homework problems. Busald is a kind, easy teacher. He discourages absences,which is good so that you don't miss out on important lectures. Allows notecards on exams. I would recommend.

Mr Busald is cool the tests are a little challenging but he lets you take a notes in the you went over prior to the tests so that's awesome (take detailed notes). plenty of time given to do homework some assignments no more than like 10 questions each assignments some are 3 or 5. if you don't attend class you might not understand something later.

Don't really need the book, save ur money,homework every week; sometime up to 30 problems, absolutely no phones in class will call u out if caught,only spill proof container for drinks allows. He can be a little confusing at times, if ur not good in math don't take him, if ur straight out of high school math he is perfect for you. No extra credit.

Gives extra credit it tells the syllabus he is very nice professor always willing to help. All assignments are online you don't need the text book you just need to purchase the course website to do your homework the book comes with the website.

Professor Busald discourages absences. Algebra doesn't come easy for some, but pay attention, take good notes (step by step on how to work the problems). He does good quiztest prep reviews. He works example problems of what to expect on quizzestests. 2 tests, 5 quizzes (drops lowest), final. HW is done online. It's possible to get an A w effort

TAKE NOTES!! He moves at a fast pace. Pay attention and write everything down that he writes down! He expects students in this class to be at a certain level, so brush up on your skills if you've been out of the math game for awhile. 2 tardies count as 1 absence so don't be late! He give benefits to those who have no more than 2 absences.

Professor Busald has an odd sense of humor but he is a good professor. Can be rude at times. He does not allow open drinks so do not bring them in. He allows 4x6 note cards to be brought in during exams! Take advantage of the notecard it is a great help.

Prof. Busald was always available to give help on homework, he will even work through the problems with you one-on-one if you come to his office hours. I am more like a "C" grade student in math classes. However, I passed statistics with an "A". I did all of my homework, never missed class & used the 4x6 cards he authorized for tests. He is great!

Professor Busald is awesome. Took him for 1314 and 1442. His tests are the exact same questions as in his reviews. All he does is change numbers around in the problems. He goes step by step on how to work the problems and use the calculator. For stats, he let us use a 4x6 card on each test and for the final, we could use them all. Take good notes!

Great professor,would take again

BEST MATH PROFESSOR EVER!! HW in lab is pretty easy. Exams are exactly like the review, just changes the questions. He shows you step by step for each problem, he even does the homework in class sometimes. Got all 90 in exams. Just know the steps and formulas and you are GOOD! if u go to class & miss one or two days extra point on overall grade.

Busald is probably the most Challenge professor I ever took. He gives you pretty easy homework (depending on math problems), but the quiz are the most important part including Final Exam. He will review over math problems the week before the quiz. If your going to take his class, be prepare.

Very nice man. Is very willing to answer any questions he is asked. Does a lot of lecturing in class and all assignments except tests are done online. Take good notes and study often and you will do fine.

So i literally suck at math and passed this class with an A. He goes over EVERY question that will be on the test the day before you take it, and you can use an index card front and back! I wrote every question and answer on there and passed every test. Lectures are boring but just show up. He's such a nice old man, would recommend!

For a student that struggled in math. I had to retake college algebra 4 times. I am glad to say that I don't have to retake this class again and also gained confidence saying that the professors I had before were the problem. Professor Busald is very helpful; takes you step by step. Don't be afraid to ask questions and the reviews are the test.

He is a really good professor. Everyone said Statistics was going to be hard so I was scared but I got an A in this class. He teaches really well and he shows you how to make the work easier by using the calculator. The day before exams he also reviews over what exactly will be on the exam. You're also allowed to use index cards on exams.

I thought he was awesome. Wrote a lot of notes on the board but he pretty much gives you the step by step process on doing the problem. If you have problems in his class, it's probably because you cannot google the answers like 90% of college students. Just do your job, show up and take notes... solid A!

I love the way he teaches and grades, always do reviews before the test and final. U just take note and do best on the review, then test and final is super easy. I took MATH 1314 and got A. However, many homeworks +quizzes every week. But all is super easy! Highly recommend him if u wanna get A.

Easiest math professor I have ever had. 1 hw per section avg 15 questions. 5 quizzes 4-7 questions each. 4 lect test 10-15 questions each. Gives you a practice exam week before each test (including final) that IS the exam. Just practice over and over and again till you get a 100. Attendce WILL affect grade. He keeps everything very very simple.

Easiest math class I have ever taken! Assignments and quizzes are online and he gives you a reasonable amount of time to complete assignments, and also gives you practice exams so make sure to utilize that and you will do fine on the exam. Seats are assigned the first day so make sure that's the spot you want and don't miss class, you can fail!!

This is the easiest math class I've ever had. He does go through everything pretty fast and seems kind of annoyed if a student asks a question but if you're pretty decent at math, that shouldn't be an issue. He gives quiz and test reviews that make the actual things very easy. He's attendance heavy so don't miss.

The easiest math class you will ever take!! Make sure to do the homework given and make notes for the exams. he always gives reviews for the exam which are really really helpful! Also be sure to pay attention in class and take notes. this class was not hard at all. his teaching style and lectures were very easy to comprehend

I took Professor Busald for Stats and he was great! He reviews you before your exams and that will help you a LOT! Make sure you study and do all your homeworks and SLO quizzes and you will get an A. I'm not good at math but prof busald made it fun and easy! Definitely take him!

Mr. Busald is humorous, but don't take his humor for an easy grader. He looks at your overall study time. So, if he sees you need to study more/go to tutoring. I enjoyed it, he's fast pace, it's possible to pass even when you butchered the first test. Work hard. SIT IN FRONT OF CLASS SO YOU DON'T LOOK LIKE A PENGUIN TRYING TO SEE IN FRONT OF YOU!

Amazing teacher! Some people did not understand his method of teaching. To those who believe they will have trouble, I have notes for this entire course at Stuvia, Documerit, and Studypool. All for reasonable prices.

Easy class if you show up on time.

Fast paced, but if you keep up you will be fine. He is not the best at going into details on how to solve problems, but short YouTube videos and google help. There is plenty of time to do assignments and the test are easy. Do not be late!

Very easy class took online and everything was on ALEKS even the final and it was not lockdown browser. He not very good at answering emails tho.
