A difficult course that built on math 100. The course needs a ton of improvement. 2 hours to teach the material isn't enough, and sometimes the lectures emphasize the wrong material. The class discussions should be replaced with lectures instead. The group assignments can take multiple hours for all group members, even though there are seemingly 3-4 math questions per assignment. It's really a sift to see who are geniuses or those have the drive to hammer away at them (XD). I honestly believe these group assignments should be given to 2nd years and above MINIMUM. I found the midterms to be fair, but on the harder side of fair. I remember learning about trig sub, and we only learned it the previous week before seeing it tested on a midterm. I found the final to be very tough. The 1/2 hal...read more

Our professor was great! He is passionate and explains things deeply, though a bit too much for the layman who is taking this course. He wrote on a transparent blackboard.

Watch videos online that teach you to SOLVE the questions. The theory doesn't really matter.

This class has given me multiple mental breakdowns. I have 92% in precalc back in highschool and I am currently close to failing the course. The schedule is so messed up with the 1 2-hour lecture a week and a small class. The lectures barely help and webwork doesnt have any similarities to the large or small class material.

This course has been the pushing me over the edge at the point that I am losing mental sanity. Similar to my complaint with Math 100, the lectures are not a good reflection of the webworks, where the lectures often have examples too simple, and the same can be said with the small classes. As an individual who did Math IB HL FOR FUN, I can confidently say that this course has reduced my passion for Maths to absolutely nothing. Maybe I can gaslight myself into liking math again one day. A 2 hour math lecture is also just way too long for one session. I would much rather prefer 3 smalller classes. This has worked for courses like CPSC 210 and ASTR 102, so I think Math would greatly benefit. And one last thing, why are there so many inconsistencies with marking assignments? I would understand ...read more

Convergence, divergence tests, integrals (of course), reimann sum, simpsons rule, trapezoid rule, some probabiliy (for some reason out of no where), partial integrals. etc.

USE YOUR IB or AP CREDITS.

Workload is heavy, this week I have a 3 hour web work assignment, 2.5 hour practice exam, and a group work assignment. Probably the hardest course in first year, even harder than 158

Two hour lecture a week, too long to focus and memorize. When you get to the end of the week, you don’t memorize anything. Also, if they expect you to memorize every formula and every condition for every test on the final exam, I give up

Choose your math group wisely, find smart people you know. Don’t join a group of people you don’t know! Don’t come late to the first small class! Yes, they might bite you hard on the back

Terrible way to teach first years math. 1 lecture a week is a terrible way to teach and often leaves students out of practice and not understanding the topics that were lightly covered in class when asked to replicate the work or harder work for assignments.
