I probably failed even though I did pretty much all the homework and studied for dozens of hours before the final (and each test). He does not teach very well and his tests are hard but he does drop one (out of 3) and he gives you 30 points EC at the end of the semester. If I had a choice again, I would avoid him. Farnham is better.

His class is great because he gets right down to the point. He explains the new topics or formulas you need to understand and then solves examples from the book. His class usually lasts 35 minutes, so you can have time to do your homework or study. There were times when his teaching became confusing, but if you talk to him he will help you out.

Calc 1 is not an easy course. You will have to study on your own and hw may take a few hours. However, Minh is one of the best math teachers. He doesn't care if you have the stupidest elementary questions, he will answer it with no judgment. Extra credit and partial points on exams. You have to do the work to get an A! Great prof. for a hard class.

Professor Bui is a very humorous and caring math instructor, and a great one, too. He does extensively use MyMathLab, just a heads up. He does require that you take a mandatory Review Assessment before exams. Only difference between exams and review are the numbers. Also, if you take the review, you get extra credit, so don't forget to do that!

I took this class because of all the good reviews, but do not take his online class. It is doable if you are familiar with algebra, but you will learn more by teaching yourself than by his lectures. Study guides are nothing like tests. I suggest doing more examples than the homework problems, or you will not be prepared for tests.
