| course : | MA 132 |
| course rating : | 1 - Bad |
| course comments : | This class sucks. I'm in COM and don't know why we all have to take it. Its all using maple and making graphs and shit. Worthless material that I will never use. I also don't have maple at home so I had to do homework in the labs at school. |
| class : | Fall 2003 section 001 |
| grade received : | A+ |
| class rating : | 1 - Bad |
| class comments : | The material is presented pretty well. He basically worked the homework problems in class, but it was hard to keep up and the class was rushed to cram into a 50 minute period. Students would always complain about computer problems which would waste more class time. |

| instructor rating : | 2 - Average |
| instructor comments : | He was okay. The class is made up of 11 homeworks, one due each week, where he only takes the highest 9. That means you finish the semester a couple weeks early if you do well on all the homeworks. The TA was really helpful outside of class, but I don't remember what his name was. |

| course comments : | Material was VERY easy to understand & was somewhat interesting for me b/c there was computing on laptops in class (which are provided for you). Not alot of material. This course was required for my major. |

| class comments : | Not alot of material. Everything was word-for-word, I don't think you could get a bad grade unless you tried really hard to. You could finish your webassigns right in class after class ended b/c they usually let out early. No book required. Attendance was taken when you sign-in to webassign every class. |

| instructor comments : | Dr. Culp is a nice guy, he would stay after class & help out whichever students needed it. Assignments were graded promptly b/c it was webassign. Not funny but a cool guy if you spoke to him. |

| class comments : | The course consisted of 14 webassigns. 11 best counted towards your whole grade. Attendance was taken but not mandatory. If you go to class, he does every webassign step-by-step for you. Easiest A= ever! |
