Comment:

Lubinsky is by far the best professor I've had so far at Tech. Lectures are fast paced, but he does an excellent job dissecting a difficult subject into exactly what you need to know. He also includes hilarious stories and comments in his lectures that make it worth the 8 am. Lots of tough homework, but our lowest test was dropped. Hard final.

Comment:

Great professor. Funny dude. Always willing to help when you show up at his office but has NO clue how Math Lab works so keep that in mind. Posts lecture notes. If you want to do really well Id read up on that one sad dog movie because it seems to be his favorite film, lol. Final is HARD, try have a solid grade beforehand.

Class is very difficult and has no leniency when it comes to the quite long homework assignments

Comment:

Professor Lubinsky manages to make one of the harder and dryer math classes bearable and at times enjoyable. Midterms are not too bad as you are able to drop your lowest one. In my case I did really well on three and absolutely bombed the other one. The Practices midterms are helpful. The Final is very hard so try to come in with a high grade.

Lubinsky is worth the 8 am; his jokes make waking up early bearable. He is great at explaining material, and he also posts his notes which are VERY helpful. Exams are generally fair, but the final is difficult! Overall, he's a solid choice for Multi.

Comment:

Lubinsky's lectures are usually worth going to, but he does post lecture notes online for every class, so don't stress if you miss. Tests are pretty fair, but the final is definitely a lot tougher than the midterms. Homework is online through My Math Lab and pretty helpful for studying. Definitely a good teacher and an interesting dude. Worth it!

Comment:

Lubinsky really works to make sure students understand the "motivation" behind the concepts, not just the formulas, and that makes the class much more enjoyable. Hegenuinely cares about students and will help you if you ask. The final is difficult so study hard and do as well as you can on th emidterms.

Comment:

Wonderful choice for MATH 2551. So caring and explains tough concepts well. Never feel bored in this class because of he jokes all time, though not everyone gets it. MML Homework is long; tests (4 midterm + 1 final) make up 90%, but with lowest dropped. Careful, do well on midterms (90+ possible if study) not to sweat on the final (really tough).

Comment:

Lubs was legendary; tough class (lots of hw and crazy hard tests), but you'll do well if you go to lecture and do the recitation worksheets. Easily the funniest professor too; I personally never read the textbook, but many do. He's also always willing to help if you need it. All around 5.

Comment:

Professor Lubinsky was absolutely amazing at teaching. Its a lot of material to cover, but he made every topic seem like a breeze. He stays upbeat and energetic throughout the entire lecture and never made me want to fall asleep, even at 8am. 100s on midterms was definitely doable if u study. hw is a bit tricky and the final was truly devastating

Comment:

Dr. Lubinsky is super knowledgeable about the material in MV Calc. His lectures are great, but the material of the course is tough especially the second half. The practice tests are almost exactly like the real ones. Do the homework to understand everything better, and try to have a high grade before the final because the final was really tough.

It would be better if the class weren't at 8 A.M. Lectures were good, but I was always tired especially at the end. The final had a lot of new material on it that brought my grade down.

Comment:

Lubinsky is an all around incredible professor. He explains concepts extremely clearly and is very specific about the expectations for the class. He also keeps lectures interesting with personal anecdotes and occasional self degradation. His tests are rather difficult, especially the final, so be prepared to study hard.

He made the class (which felt like drinking from a fire hydrant, btw), be manageable. He made it make sense. A great professor.

Do WHATEVER you have to do to be in Lubinskys class! He really knows whats hes talking about. Hes super organized and makes 2551 relatively easy. His practice tests are basically exactly what his tests are. I promise its definitely worth getting up even though its an 8 am class. Plus hes pretty funny.

MyMathLab homeworks take up an entire sunday. Lecture is decent but recitation matters more. My TA could barely speak english so I had to teach myself with uploaded notes. Skip all the theory, he doesnt test on it. Drop lowest of the 4 tests, which was the weirdly confusing test 3. Final was the hardest test I've ever taken.. 75% on v new material.

hilarious professor. i love his sense of humor and it was the only thing motivating me to get up at 8am to go to his classes. his lectures are incredibly easy to follow and useful. homework can be tedious and the written portion of the final is difficult but tests are easy as long as you can do the practice tests

Great professor with humor. The class was 8am everyday so I didnt go that much but it didnt hurt me because he posted the notes online. Study the practice tests and you'll do fine on the test. He drops 1 of the tests but he intentionally makes one of them hard bc test 3 had a very low average. Final was one of the hardest things I've done at Tech.

Lubinsky is a great professor. I would recommend him to anyone who needs to take 2551. I took this class as a 5 day a week 8am lecture and do not regret it at all. It was worth the 8am. However, if you don't feel like going to lecture, you don't even have to because he uploads his lectures online! Tests are very similar to the practice tests!

I took the class as a distance student, and Professor Lubinksy was really great! He jokes much about "Okeefenokee college" or something like that.. but he really teached the material well, and I felt well prepared for the tests! Just do the homework, and you will be fine..
