MATH34B . 13 Years Ago

First of all, a very enthusiastic professor but he can be unclear at times. The book is not helpful at all unless you just want straight up answers for your homework. Having homework every other day is kind of annoying, especially when they are hard problems. Didn't have to take notes in class but iclicker worth points.

He was an interesting professor but the class was not easy. As long as you do all of the homework and attend every class you will pass. Fair grader, although the homework was extremely hard and often times impossible to complete.

Cooper's lectures can be confusing and the book isn't much help. If you go to CLAS you will definitely pass the class and most likely get at least a B.

Cooper is a good teacher and his textbook follows along with the homework. I got a D on one of the midterms but because the final counts for so much I was able to save my grade and got an A-. Even if you don't go to lectures (though somebody in your study group should) you can study with a bunch of friends and still ace the tests.

Daryl makes it so that almost half the class gets B's. For an A I would suggest going to lecture and sections to take the quizzes and studying for the midterms and final by doing the practice exams, he always changes them so don't expect the actual test to be the same. Overall Daryl teaches well and tries to make math as entertaining as possible

Daryl makes math simple. Lectures go by quickly. He's constantly cracking jokes and playing movie clips/songs. I didn't pay attention much so I can't tell you about the quality of the lectures, but the section quizzes, midterms, and final were straightforward and easy if you like math. Got an A- with very little effort. I recommend this professor.

He is kinda funny but all the work is NOT.

Tougher class than 34B but he makes everything easier. He's a great lecturer and his powerpoints are very clear which helps if you miss lecture. Homework can be tough at times. Tests have more trick/complicated questions so really focus on concepts. CLAS would definitely help.

Cooper sounds like he's going to be hard and extremely challenging, but soon you learn that the material really isn't that complicated to understand. Also, if you mess up on your midterms the final counts for so much that you can easily save your grade. Basically Cooper rules.

Cooper is the sickest. He is really easy to get a good grade in since he boosts your grade up to a B, if you get a C or above, as long as you show up to every class, section, and do the hw. I failed 2 midterms (50% on both) and got a C on the other one, but got a B in the class after I aced my final. I didnt even need the boost to get a B.

Not a very easy class. If you're not interested in math, and do not need it for your major, do not take this class. He does make lecture okay with his jokes and energy

Fun professor and very fair. There is HW due every MWF and countless iclicker questions so you have to put in the time and go to class, but otherwise the exams are extremely straightforward.

This guy was completely (in British accent) Dreadful! The first day he compared parenthesis to condoms. I was not amused by his high jokes. His constant reminder that "you will fail the class" is very discouraging. There is a reason people chose social sciences over math-incorporated majors. This guy is one of them. Proceed with extreme caution!!!!

Fun prof that put in effort to make the class fun with jokes, videos, music, etc. Iclickr points count, so go to class! If you pay attention, do the homework, and go to section, it isn't hard at all. Even if math isn't your strongest subject.

Overall good teaching and his jokes kept me awake during class. Follows the book well bc he wrote it lol. Shouldve gone to class more bc iclicker q's can make or break one's grade.

Great Guy, Very funny I enjoyed his joke. Really play attention to how he explains his problems i know its dreadful, but he gives bonus for explaining like he does on midterms. Do every h.w. and every practice midterm, he gives you the tools just need to put in the time. and his funny as cheese balls!

Very helpful and reassuring prof. Tries hard to relate tough concepts to real world models.

Excellent professor. Jokes are great for keeping a fresh mind. The lights in Campbell Hall are a little to dim which makes test taking quite challenging.

Easy class, professor tells dumb jokes and keeps complaining about macs vs pcs and is really annoying though he finds himself hillarious.

Cooper is a very entertaining teacher. Sets up the class nicely, so that if you are not doing as well in the beginning of the class, you still have a great chance to land a good grade. His test are kind of tricky. I liked the way homework is set up so that you only have 12-15 problems due at a time (although three times a week).

ok teacher, if you take his class dont worry about being overwhelmed

Overall, Cooper is a great professor. If you go to each class you should be fine. Your iClicker score determines more than you'd think. At the end, if you've used your iClicker every day, Cooper will definitely raise your grade.
