To do well on the exams, you needed to be able to *really* apply the concepts. Textbook was OK, but mostly unrelated to exams. This course prerequires only Calc 1; I took 2 and 3, and I still only got a B in 240.",

Eventually I just stopped showing up because I found wikipedia more helpful. The class was easy enough though. This class does a good job at weeding out people who want to do CS but are bad at math.",

Honestly, homework, exam, and lecture have no relations. Even you read and solve questions from book, you may not be able to solve exams questions. Nothing can help you.",
