Comment:

This man is an absolute math god. He knows everything, and he's pretty good at getting you to know too. As long as you stay up to date on your homework and practice problems, you should have no problems passing this class. He says "lemme give you some stuff to play with," at the end of every single class, I swear to god.

Comment:

If you are not good at calculus you better go to every class. He will make you work for you grade. Weekly quizzes are easy if you study the practice problems he gives for extra homework. Quizzes are just like the tests! At the end of the semester he dropped 2 quiz grades. He is flexible, just talk to him. Tests accounted for 80% of the final grade.

Comment:

Has really informative lectures. Gives lots of optional practice to help enhance the assigned homework. Not too much homework, can be done in less than an hour after lecture. Helpful and lots of office hours outside of class. Gives a quiz once a week, but gives plenty of time to learn material before being tested on it. Tests easy if you study.

Comment:

Professor Cornell seems tough on the exterior but isn't at all! I was terrified to go to his office hours but it has been the best decision I have made in the course! there are quizzes every Friday and as long as you go to class, actually do the hw, and do practice problems, you will be good! not an easy A, but can be if you put in the work!

Comment:

I had Professor Cornell for pre-calc. He is very lenient on homework grading and will give partial credit as long as you show your work. He has a lot of office hours and is more than willing to sit down with you and help you work on homework problems or concepts you don't understand. Do the suggested practice problems and the homework!

Hes an amazing professor, and is really good at explaining things and teaching. Attendance isnt mandatory but you wont pass if you dont show up. He gives extra credit and points on all quizzes, homework, and exams. If you ever need help, you can always go see him.

GREAT professor!! Takes the time to thoroughly explain topics, do lots of examples, and gives tons of practice problems with opportunities for you to ask questions on anything before having to hand in hw or take quizzes/tests. Makes himself very available and if you work at it, you'll get out of the class what you put into it. Fun and happy too!

Comment:

He is a math God. Super helpful and presents the material very clear. His tests are not super difficult but not super easy either. He does not use canvas or Pearson all of the material is written on the board and all of the homework is from the book. Lots of homework but if you do it you wont have to study for the exams.

Comment:

I enjoyed lecture very much-Cornell has a dry sense of humor and is very blunt, but will answer any questions and make sure you understand the material. Super flexible if you need to miss a quiz date and will let you come in ahead of time if you have something going on on quiz day. Quizzes/tests are very similar to problems gone over in class.

Best math professor I've ever had. He was difficult but his lectures are clear and easy to understand. Do all the practice problems you can and go to office hours and there's no reason you shouldn't succeed.

Comment:

Dr. Cornell is by far the best math professor I've ever had. He was ALWAYS in his office when I went to see him. He dropped the 2 lowest quiz grades. For my class, we had homework that was online which was harder than what we learned in class. I wish I could take him for all my math courses!

Best math professor I have ever taken. Calc 2 is notoriously hard but he makes it easy. Very accessible outside of class. Does not use online homework which is a huge plus. Exams are not tricky. He made me want add a math minor.

Comment:

I thought I was bad at math till I took his class. He explains everything clearly. Yes, the lectures can be long but very informative. He'll teach you how to solve long problems his way which was way easier than how the book taught it. Homework is not long and he gives optional practice problems to help you along. I would choose him every time.

You'll have MyMathLab homework every week and a quiz every Friday, but other than that it's a good class. He makes the lectures easy and the online work is good practice, but studying is definitely still necessary to pass the weekly quizzes. Partial credit is given on them, but they're heavily based off class so take notes and GO TO CLASS, trust me

Definitely the best math teach I've ever had! I'm a Bio major but his calc 1 class made me want to take him again for calc 2. He is very helpful, answers every question you have and will always help during office hours. He is literally a genius and explains complex processes well. Put in effort and pay attention during lecture and you'll do well!

If you are good at math, you would this class. Plus it's easy. If you and math do not get along, you will also enjoy this class, however the class may be a little harder.

I have taken Professor Cornell for precalc, calc 1 and calc 2 and I can say that he is the best professor I have ever had. He explains complex topics extremely clearly, and his teaching structure is very organized. He is so helpful and patient with his students. The homework might seem like a lot, but if you do it all then getting an A is not hard.
