If you actually want to learn Calculus, DO NOT TAKE THIS COURSE. Teaches solely through examples and doesn't explain theorems. Backtracks frequently, unorganized, and takes a very roundabout way of teaching. Grading system is cool though. Attendance and book aren't necessary.

Extremely clear expectations for exams and grading. Some lectures could have been planned and rehearsed a little bit, but mistakes were understandable for a newer instructor.

Couldn't understand a thing in lecture. Disorganized and hard to access. I think we all had a general confusion every time he spoke in lecture. Midterm and final were graded very lightly, if it weren't for that I would not have passed. Homework is alright just a lot of questions. Not the worst ever.

Very unorganized canvas, pretty bad at explaining topics in depth. Only good part about his class was he drops your lowest midterm score and considers a curve if necessary.

He is kind of disorganized and his handwriting is hard to read. Exams are worth 80% of your grade, though he drops your lowest midterm score. Also, he likes complaining on Canvas announcements but is pretty chill in office hours.

I'm definitely not a math person and struggled a lot with Professor Lam. He's pretty funny and personable but he explains topics in weird ways and would sometimes just solve a problem incorrectly. I honestly never showed up to section but if I would've I'm sure I would've gotten a higher grade.
