Comment:

Yall this class is nowhere near an easy class unless you have taken AP CALC in hs. You get the grade you put in work for and this class really proves it. I lost an A because I put in more time into this class trying to get a good grade. Overall, she teaches good but be ready as topics gets rushed through at the end!

Comment:

She is tough and demanding, but really loves her work. She wants you to succeed, but you have to earn it. If you want it, she will help you, if not, don't waste her time. She has a lot of subject matter to cover, and not enough time. It is definitely tough love. She is an amazing professor, and you would be lucky to learn from her.

I remembered taking her for calc 1 and just dropping her class. Her attitude is so awful and she love rushing the class, which resulted in a lot of people being confused on the material and them failing on quizzes and tests. the only good thing about her is the review sheet or the "homework", but don't be fooled by her high rating.

Take this class only if you have to. It was very rushed and all she cares about is getting you to take her quizzes and tests. Shorty was wild rude and the feedback was not up to par. She lowkey wants you to fail.

Comment:

Ms. Pichardo's "notes" are worksheets with lots of problems. Answer key for all notes and HW's are on BlackBoard. She does the hardest problems from the notes in class. Her paper HW's are not mandatory but really help. 4 exams and like 10 quizzes(drops 1 exam and 2 quizzes), and the final. She puts a lot of effort to help everyone understand math.

Comment:

I had Pichardo for Bridge to MATH 212, and her notes are the best notes I ever received from any math teacher. They're actually much better than the textbook in most cases, and so I actually use them for MATH 212. Bridge class is a no-credit class so I can't say about the workload, but would definitely take a for-credit class with her.

Was a really great class, never before had such a great math teacher. Super clear, she teaches you how to solve rather than waste time explaining unneeded concepts. Her teaching method is very effective.

Comment:

She does her best to teach the course, but if you don't show up to class and pay attention, then you'll have a hard time. She only drops two quizzes and one exam, so if you mess up on multiple quizzes/exams, you need to put more hours into studying the material or else your final exam grade won't have a good cushion.

She is one of the worse professor. She is really rude. She made my whole semester a living disaster. I dont remember trying this hard to pass other classes. I took her for pre calc she gave me a D. I had to retake it in summer with half of the class. I got an A. In calc I got an A. In calc 2 I got an A. She made me feel worthless. DONT TAKE

I think she is really easy to understand. There was a lot of homework but if you do it you will get an A. I thought she was an excellent professor. She would stay after class and answer all of your questions.

She is okay if that is the only class youre taking in a semester. Unbearable for a full time student. For the sake of your grades and your sanity, do not take her. I got 13 homework on the first day of class!!

Comment:

Professor Pichardo made calculus bearable. She is very humorous even when she doesn't try. She is a strict and tough grader though. However if you study a lot, do the homework she assigns, and pay attention in class, you will do well. Calculus is not an easy subject so don't expect this to be an easy A. Nevertheless, she is a wonderful instructor.

Comment:

She's honestly a great professor. The beginning of the semester is a lot of review from previous math courses so you're on your own, but after that she really starts to teach you. You don't need the textbook as long as you pay attention in class and study for the quizzes and exams. She also gives lots and lots of practice questions with solutions.
