This course is not hard in general but the professor is not good at teaching.The course is graded off 20% webwork, 20% mid 1, 20% mid 2, 25% final, and max grade of your three exams 10%. There are no calculators allowed on exams and he gives very specific numbers but you are allowed a full page cheat sheet. I would not recommend this teacher.
Well-organized lectures and clear explanations. Give make-up points for midterms. Put efforts and time to help students understand course materials.
The course was well, I wish it wasn't an 8am
Pretty clear on grading, offers a couple bonus points on exams. Practice exam and hw is almost identical to real exam-allows full page cheat sheet. I'm not the best at math but I've done just fine in the class so far. Drops lowest two hw scores and also bumps your grade for attending section. Does not curve exams however. Is fair, just put in work
- did not explain the answers he got on problems in class, often would just give the answer - quiet as hell despite being told to speak up - gave literally just the answer on the midterm practice solutions, AND the actual midterm was way harder. - hard to understand - bad handwriting - by far, in general, one of the worse professors here.
The professor adhered closely to the textbook but presented the material in a way that never felt like he was simply reading from it. He constantly provided examples, highlighted connections between concepts, and posed questions to deepen our understanding of the material.

I thoroughly enjoyed his class, especially the engaging step-by-step teaching style and the helpful class materials that really supported my learning. Bohan's courses have deepened my understanding of mathematical proofs.
It took me a bit to get used to his lecture style. But he keeps a good pace and makes sure his notes are really clear. He's probably the most understanding and supportive prof I've had in the math department. He gives lots of chances to ask questions in class, and if you do, he'll take the time to explain things.
Bad grader. Horrible at explaining concepts. Speaks very quietly in class and gives bad examples during class. The class is very easy, but the homework problems do not compare at all. I would not take his classes again.
unhelpful lectures and badly formatted tests
Homework is worth 25% and exams are worth 75%. No curve. First day of class he said it should be "easy". Beware.
