Class Average: 67.0% Is one of the hardest classes. Material is very math-heavy and theoretical for first-year engineering students. Unfortunately, this course's material is fundamental, and the material will pop up in courses from first to final year.

If another professor/section is better don't be afraid to attend. Just don't miss midterms in original section.

Eagle is the best, class is very hard and VERY theory based, best way to prepare is to take very in depth notes in class and go over / review notes when you can.

Do lots of questions from the book when preparing for midterms, in this class repetition is VERY key.

Chris Eagle is a great teacher and did a good job of teaching this course using relevant chalk board examples and providing clear formulas and proofs. While not useful for 100- and 200- classes, matrix algebra is very important for some upper level 400- engineering courses.

Get comfortable with theorems and practice examples. Attend lectures and stay up-to-date with new content.
