Patrick was really good, I got an A+ in his class! In high school my highest math mark was a C. He's pretty funny too. Go to class though, his notes and examples are way better than the book.

Comment:

Well...I take back some of which I've said previously. After writing the final I realized that Proff Boily is in fact a good guy. Its just you gotta watch out for the first few months, he may be quite moody. Near the end though he lightens up, and if you review your notes and do textbook questions, you should do good on his final. x∈{Bell Cur

Comment:

Actually this prof is pretty great! He explains in a way that allows everyone to understand very clearly, unlike many math profs I've had. ALL of the questions on the exam were pulled from exercises in the homeworks as opposed to what the previous student mentioned! Perhaps it is because of students like you that he is so grumpy all the time!!!

Comment:

This guy is extremely rude and irritating. He's only said nice/humorous remarks to the class like twice all semester. He looks pissed off 24/7. No one was prepared for his test, because we did no such examples in class. I'm guessing the class avg was really close to fail or worse.

He's a GREAT prof, makes coming to class interesting. He's really funny, and if you go see him during his office hours he helps you soooo much!!! And like everyone else says, gives you a lot of hints about the mid-terms and exams!!! I miss having him!!!

Comment:

Really clear. Also funny. good prof, makes it easy to understand the concepts. make sure you go to class though, he gives tips for the quizzes and his methods are way easier to understand than learning it from the text. the only crummy thing is that there's no class website with updates or announcements.
