3B . Akemann C A 2 Months Ago

Basically study 4 definitions before the tests, and all the study guides would be the same as the test. Not the best lecturer, but hilarious, come to class if you want to have a fun time, cause he makes jokes every 5 minutes. Special hw are hard but just ask your TA. got 6,7 for the 2 midterm, but 9.75/10 for final, end up with an A. 50% for final.

Terrible lectures but tests are similar to practice tests so study those

MATH3B . Akemann C A 3 Months Ago

Horrible in lectures, but tests are very very similar to practice tests, so if you do the practice tests a bunch of times you're guaranteed to do well on his tests. His tests have definitions, but they come from a small pool that you can figure out after seeing the first definition. You hav self-teach yourself, but no homework + curves the class.

Professor Akemann served our class as a volunteer teacher because the school couldn't find anyone to teach us. Although grateful that he stepped into this position, he was the worst math teacher I've ever had. I think he is a very sweet guy but just not a good teacher what so ever. Tests are very difficult, highly do not recommend

Very unclear lectures, I felt like going to them made me feel more confused. Midterms were relatively difficult but with hours of preparation they were doable. DO NOT RECCOMEND AVOID IF YOU CAN.
