About this rating

Raw average: 3.67/5 from 76 quality ratings. The adjusted rating blends this with the UW review average (3.66/5), weighted as 20 additional ratings. Smaller samples stay closer to that average. Each captured review is counted once in the prior; this does not correct who chooses to leave a review.

MATH606 · course not matched
Quality 5/5Difficulty 4/5
Not an easy A, but if you do a good job on all the work you can get one. Some of the homework assignments were rough, but I learned a lot. No exams, but you'll spend a lot of time on the class project. I really enjoyed the lectures, and prof was always happy to answer my questions.

Quality 5/5Difficulty 5/5
606 was the most amazing class. I have never learned so much in a single course (programming, numerical methods, machine learning, thermodynamics, protein structure, and more.) I worked pretty hard for my grade, but it was totally worth it. Lectures were excellent, so don't skip them. I also really liked the class project, which I got to design.

MATH 234
Quality 2/5Difficulty 3/5
Very meh. Her exams were easy, except for the last one which was devastating. I can't really complain about the grading though because she has a built in curve to her exams which was nice. She was technologically equipped, but not always all that sharp with the software. Lecture is boring, but the big knock was that the last exam was insanely hard.

Such a great professor, especially compared to a lot of the other calculus professors on campus. You could tell she really wanted you to succeed.

MATH 234
Quality 2/5Difficulty 3/5
She is very disorganized and makes frequent mistakes during lectures. The class itself wasn't that hard, but she does a horrible job of explaining the concepts and made the content much harder than it needed to be, and the examples in class were nothing like the problems on the test.

MATH 234
Quality 4/5Difficulty 4/5
Lectures are very helpful. She is tough on her set ways of grading. No talking during lecture even if you ask a question to your neighbor. However, she is very open to students asking her questions and she will review the concept. Her lessons and homework are very organized. Midterms are easy but the final kills.
