Chuck is a nice guy, but he really is not trying to pass anyone. He wants you to be able to do the hard problems, so he is going to test you on the hard problems. He is willing to help outside of class. Be warned, he as online midterms and those are annoying as heck. Also do the homework because every test question comes from there.

Unless you'v prepared beforehand or are willing to self-study, then prepare to suffer a bit. Talks about his own family, dog, and life a lot in the middle of lectures. Tells funny stories, and is a great person to meet outside of class. Your grade can't be lower than your final.

Had I taken calculus in high school this would have been easier. But this guy's quirks makes the class seem harder than it is. He stumbles over his words, makes simple mistakes cuz he can't read his own writing, & is useless in office hours. Oh, and you might have heard about his curve policy & fail rate. Retook and got a an A-. Better than an F.

His lectures are useless. His homework is ok, but the tests tend to be unrelated to the homework and the lectures. Avoid if possible.

had him for math 3b and 60% of the class failed. i dont know what wrong with the world, but in all honesty, 60% must have been a little mentally challenged. the tests were difficult, but not ridiculous to the extent people claim. study, do the homework, and you will get at least a B if you have any background in calculus.

He's a terrible teacher and then refuses to curve. If you go to lecture you won't learn anything. He failed 50% of the engineering majors in the class. I would never take another class from him.
