Connect HW, 4 tests on Mymathlab - lowest grade dropped. 11 quizzes on BB each have 4-6 questions only. Final was 32% of total grade. You have to get 50% and up to pass the class. It's not an easy class. Make sure to practice a lot or you will not pass.

Be prepared to read and self teach. You get what you work for. He gives more than enough time to finish homework assignments which are due the same day as test days. The class consists of 19 HW assignments, 11 Quizzes, 4 Tests. lowest test gets dropped. The final wasn't as difficult as expected. Overall I would take again

I took professor Nguyen for 8 weeks Finite Math and did not regret it. His lecture is so detailed and you'll just have to copy what he wrote. He is very caring and his tests are not that hard. You'll have 3 exams and a comprehensive final. I am currently taking him for Cal for the next 8 weeks. I would take him again for other classes if he has it.

Comment:

Do not take for a summer class I know if I would have taken him in a full semester I would pass with an A but theres a ton of hw Easy! The tests were not hard but there wasnt enough time, especially when you breakdown your problems step by step, i had to guess on at least 6 questions because I didnt have enough time! Take in the fall!

Comment:

Professor Nguyen is one of the best math professors I have taken. He is very thorough and explains the theorems and concepts indepth. During class, he walks you through multiple problems and has students help him navigate through problems. If you make a mistake, he explains why it will not work out well. He drops lowest score and gives extra credit

Comment:

Dr. Nguyen is an awesome professor. He teaches so nicely and he also provides good feedback. He cares for you and wants you to succeed. He gives extra credit on all tests and also drops the lowest test grade. His tests are in same format as his reviews. Do his reviews nicely, take notes from class and you will make an A.

Comment:

Professor Nguyen, class is lay out simple, with everything online. So it makes it easy to have busy schedule, and still be involved in his class as attendance wasn't mandatory. 3 test you have to do in person, test were set up easy similar to reviews. Homework were harder, there homework for every section. Though Professor has true love for math

I took his online class for Finite math and Calculus (1306) and got an A for both classes. The final tends to be similar problems to the 3 chapter test problems, along with the final chapter added. Make sure to study! I am now enrolled to take him for Stat 3309, on campus. I recommend taking him.

He doesn't talk to the class AT ALL. No extra credit, no dropping grades, tests are only open 1 day which is inconvenient, and you get only 1 chance. HW is only worth 20%, 4 tests, and final is cumulative and 32% of grade. It feels like he doesn't care if we do well.

Comment:

I took him both for Finite math and Calculus (1306) and got an A for both classes. He is easy to understand. Write everything he writes! Gives 10 extra points if homework and test review are above 90. Test reviews are pretty easy, and the final tends to be similar questions to the review, if not sometimes even the same problems. Make sure to study!

Comment:

Only went to class for the first ten days which is mandatory, and the 4 test days we had which he posted since the beginning. Got 100 in all my test and gives extra credit if you finish your mymathlab homework on time. May be a lot for my math lab but an easy class easy A.
