Fall 2025. He often snuck hints on what would be on the final. We had two midterms and a final (each being worth ~30% of your grade). There were weekly quizzes in discussions, but you could drop two of your worst quiz grades. He doesn't post lectures online (which sucks), but he's an amazing lecturer. He posts past exams, which were very helpful.Rate My Professors ↗
He explains concepts well but often makes little mistakes during lecture that sometimes go uncorrected which confuse the class at times. If you talk to him after class and pay attention to lectures you will know questions on the upcoming test. He seems like a cool guy, calc 3 was just really hard for me.Rate My Professors ↗
Amazing professor! Taught very well and always encouraged students to ask questions.Rate My Professors ↗
This guy was just amazing. Calc 3 is a very hard class, but he made it easier. Everything was explained well, and if you really pay attention, he'll hint at what's on the test.Rate My Professors ↗
This lass is exam heavy but if you just pay attention to lectures and attend discussions it's easy to get an A. Doing really well in one exam can help a lot (it did in my case where I had 96 and 89 in midterms and 88 in final but overall was 92 which is borderline A) and first exam is really easy.Rate My Professors ↗
Professor Uyanik is very knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor. You will find this course easy if you attend the lectures and discussion sections. The only thing I regret about this course is not going to his office hours (partially because of the free chocolate I heard he gives out, haha).Rate My Professors ↗
