I took the HON course; he says it just goes a bit deeper in class. Test questions just like HWs & he gives a VERY clear outline for each exam. HWs are in Pearson, due 10 days after they're assigned, but lack a set schedule otherwise & aren't in d2L. This prof. wants to help, (email, office hours) though I didn't take advantage. Memorize formulas!

While he gives a breakdown before each test, those 4 tests make up all of your class grade. He was very harsh on small algebra mistakes (Eg: I lost 80% of the points on a question for missing a minus sign while doing all the differential equation correctly.) Tests are usually 5-7 "questions" which have 3-4 parts each.

Exemplary math professor. Had Professor Wang for MATH 2306 this semester and it has been a wonderful experience. Only thing to look out for is making sure you are putting in the necessary study time and asking questions. There are 4 exams and those make up your entire grade, so if you mess up too bad, it might hurt your grade. He's great though!!

Final grade is based on 3 tests and a final exam. He gives a rundown of what will be on the test but is pretty vague about it. He gives partial credit but is not very lenient with it at all. Would not recommend for this difficult class

I have received an F in the class. Should've been more consistent. He is extremely brutal with the mistakes that you make. My GPA has taken a hit and put my scholarship at risk. I failed all three exams back to back. I've done well in Calculus I and II but this professor was quite harsh. His teaching style is too erratic. Can't teach very well.

I understood the material very well from Dr. Wang. Your grades are made up of three exams and a final, and no formula sheets allowed (which made things a little difficult). Goes over what will be on the exam the day before, so you don't go into exams blindly. Tests are similar to examples done in class or easy hw problems (optional). Not too bad!

I took him for Calc 2 and well it will be hard and require time to do good. He only grades based off tests and final meaning no homework, so you need to make sure you can do good on those. Lectures are content heavy but that comes with high level math classes, one thing about him is he is always open to questions and wants everyone to understand.

He's accessible outside of class and the lectures are pretty much on point. My suggestion for people who are about to take Calculus 2, make sure you brush up on algebra and trig, I would say that's probably the most important skill to have in any high level math class. Overall, he's a great professor.

*Took him for Math 4260* Dr. Wang is the best math teacher I've had (as a math major). He really wants everyone to do well. All you have to do is go to class, he tells you almost word for word what's going to be on the test. I know some people just don't like math, but this is the best option if you have to take a class IMO. Wish I found him sooner

Make no mistake- DiffyQs is a difficult class which requires putting in work. Prof Wang broke down the concepts in class amazingly. The class before an exam he would also give you a full layout of the exam so there were no surprises. Your grade is made up of only 4 exams though so take them seriously, but if you can do the HW you can do the exams.

if your not already intuitive when it comes to math his lecture can be hard to follow because he will go over it really fast and not do every step of the problem. Be prepared to practice alot on yor own to learn the material. but not a horrible class you will survive

Professor Cheng's class was very simple to follow with great explanations to each topic. A day before the test, he will give you the layout of the exam and work practice problems on those specific questions for students to understand. You do not have mandatory homework but it is recommended to do them because some questions will be on the exam.

Best diff eq professor I could chosen. Very clear-cut teaching style and explains things well. Willing to help before or after class. Homework is not required, but personally, I recommend doing all of it. The class is in no way an easy A or anything. If you like math, you'll latch on well. Otherwise, you may have to put in some extra work.

Entire grade is average of three tests (fourth test is optional and will replace lowest previous grade). Dr. Wang is very straightforward and clear about what skills are needed on the tests, and he provides detailed breakdowns of exactly what types of questions are going to be on the tests. If you can follow directions, you'll do fine in his class.

Prof wang is everything you want in a math prof. He made complex topics easy to understand. He always gives an accurate rundown of the test the class before, and the tests were extremely easy. He always says, " I don't do complicated questions bc I just want to make sure you understand the content and nothing more."

He is a nice professor, but If you are not familiar with calculus then do not take this course with him. He goes fast and hard to understand, skips a lot of steps when solving questions. He says attendance does not matter but if you miss class then you are far behind to come back. Do not take him if you are a busy person. Extremely hard class!

Please look at the recent reviews before selecting this professor!! He is a nice person but he goes too fast when teaching and skips a lot of crucial steps that bite you when you are in the test. I tried asking for help but again he went too fast to where I did not understand him. Please, please if you are not good with math do not take him!!!!

I took him over the summer, and while it wasn't easy, it was the best way to tackle Calc 1! He's super organized and genuinely wants you to succeed. He offers two reviews before each test: an overview and a detailed session with examples very similar to the test. Tests mirror the homework, and the final replaces your lowest grade. Great class!

If you are good in math and can sit for a long time with tests, you can take him. His test is super long, and some of those are complicated numbers. Tests are not hard but long. Half the class dropped after test 1. He spoke clearly, but sometimes his voice went up and down so hard it was hard to hear. 3 exams; final can be optional.

Dr. Wang provides exam outlines, however, it's important to thoroughly practice the exam review he provides by going over the questions multiple times. The exams are not difficult, but without sufficient practice, they can be challenging. His grading is not super lenient so make sure your process does not differ too much from the actual answer.
