MATH 2310

Go to every single class - it's worth it to hear Xiang explain the material, because he's a fantastic teacher that really knows his stuff and can actually make the topics understandable. He's easily one of the best teachers I've ever had because he's both an interesting lecturer and an interesting person. There will be a lot of time consuming homework, but if you master those questions then you will easily be able to tackle the tests, which will challenge your knowledge conceptually but shouldn't be nearly as heavy computationally.

Cal3 is mainly just computational stuff, not real math. This class has even fewer "proof"-like exercises than Cal2. The derivative section is very easy, while the vector related sections and integration could get a tad tricky sometimes.

XW is a very clear and good instructor who puts teaching as one of his top priorities, but sometimes can be bogged down in trivial computational details.

Xiang was one of the better math teachers I've had. He went above and beyond when it came to trying to ensure students understood the material. I wish he'd gone over more difficult problems in class. Sometimes it seemed like everything made sense in class, but then when I tried doing the homework it made no sense. Overall, I loved the material, and Xiang was a decent teacher. It would've been nice if we'd spent more time on vector calculus -- the material isn't too bad most of the semester, but everyone agrees that the last few weeks of the class (where we learn vector calc) were the hardest.
