GARFIELD P M
Very good and engaging lecturer, definitely cares about the success of students. Lots of homework due every MWF. Some homework problems are pretty interesting such as proving Fermat's little theorem, interesting counting, etc. Exams are pretty straightforward. Grading is extremely slow, 2nd midterm and final were graded 1 wk after grades due.
He's so funny and awesome, like the human version of garfield the cat. If you have to take a math course, take it with this professor!
This dude is the goat such a nice guy and the class is so free he gives practice tests for every test and if you know how to do them you will get an A just learn what's on the practice test a few days before test day
Peter would always show up with a Big Gulp from 711 in the beginning of every lecture. Other than that, he did virtually nothing. Yes, he taught during lecture and he was fine, but I think he overcomplicated things so much. I took AP Calculus in High School and got an A+ in both 34A and 34B, and I never went to lecture.
The class in of itself is easy, the practice exams are almost EXACTLY like the actual test with a few curveball steps he doesn't mention (though if you show work and get it semi/ mostly wrong you'll still get a good grade). Honestly felt scared because I didn't take calc or even pre-calc in highschool but you'll be fine, enroll in CLAS groups.
Super easy class grading-wise, but if you don't learn super duper fast, you'll have to do a good amount of work outside of class. He moves super fast sometimes, and the homework isn't always the most straightforward. But the midterms don't impact your grade too much, and he'll raise a C to a B if you show effort by attending lectures and sections.
