APMA 3100

Weekly webwork keeps you on track, but office hours are a must to really understand the material.

Haha, Prof Fulgham always tries to be funny although he fails most of the time. lol. Take this course with him. I like his lecture.

If you're a Systems Engineer, you have to take this class. I dunno if Fulgham or Snyder is worse, they both pretty much suck. Anytime you think Fulgham is making sense for a second, just ignore what he's saying cause it won't be on the test. He's a kinda nice guy, but a really really terrible teacher. The textbook is also worthless, don't buy it.

Both Fulgham and Snider are awful, so I'm genuinely sorry for those of you who are required to take this class. Fulgham's a nice guy but a terrible teacher. He spends a lot of his time talking to the board and then standing right in front of it, covering up his notes. He's also the most disorganized professor I've ever had. You mostly have to self-teach yourself the material. The best part of his class was his very organized online lecture notes, so I would definitely recommend looking at those instead of what he writes on the board. The tests were all difficult - no way to get around it.

Pretty difficult content, but Fulgham keeps class interesting and explains things alright. I'd definitely recommend taking this class with Fulgham over other options (i.e. Snider).

Not a terribly easy class, but Fulgham does try hard to make concepts stick with students. After the first exam the material definitely picks up, be sure to have reviewed some Calc 3 material to be fresh on how to set up multiple integrals. If you take the time to learn the middle portion of the class well, the last portion before and after the third midterm will be made easy. Formula sheets on midterms and the final are very helpful.

This class was really painful. Fulgham is a nice guy and an alright teacher, but you definitely will be teaching yourself most of the material. Tests were open note and all difficult since it was taught online this semester. I would say to give this class the most focus of any class you take if you can and go to the workshop office hours for concept clarification on worksheets and WebWork. Good luck.
