Comments on the course

The first two thirds of this course was fine. I was able to learn the integral techniques relatively quickly. Probability functions were also easy to follow. The last unit sucked for me. I hated doing the whole series unit, especially the power series manipulations and the converging diverging series at the end. This was proven in the final which was insanely hard compared to practice ones. It made me wanna consider my life decisions. The webworks took lots of time to complete, so get ready to spend several hours per week completing then. Seek office hrs if you need. The group project content wasn't bad, the main thing here is you want to form a good study group. That's how I did good on it. In terms of the midterm I felt it to be slightly challenging but very doable, It felt much easi...read more

You will learn a few key integration techniques, how to find probability density functions and others, and series, including converging and diverging tests.

Comments on the professor

His humour was what helped me engage in his lectures, however his notes were a bit hard to read at times. Nothing too memorable about him but his teaching was good.

Advice

Make sure you are comfortable with derivatives aka calc 1 content. This course builds on this a lot. Try to attend all lectures and discussions, this can help with practicing the relevant material and make studying easier. There's only 1 large group 2 hour lecture per week so really pay attention. Do a LOT of practice problems before test periods, especially in the textbook and redo webwork questions before exams. Do not underestimate the test difficulty. Try to avoid this course if your desired specialization does not require it, as it is a HARD course if you struggle with math.
