Professor Varvarezos is a fantastic math professor, he makes challenging concepts clear.

The material is easy if you’ve taken AP Calc AB in high school. The practice midterms and final are practically the same as the real ones, and both are quite straightforward. The professor is clear with notes and answers questions kindly. Classes are recorded. The only things that you need to keep an eye on are the weekly homework assignments because he takes marks off for lateness and accepts nothing after 3 days tardy. Overall, would recommend. Easy A if you pay attention and have learned any of it before.

Amazing professor and lecturer! Explains concepts very clearly and is easy to understand. Exams/midterms aren't too hard (HW is harder). Very helpful during office hours and always leaves room to ask questions during lectures. Allows notecards in midterms and a cheat sheet in finals. Posts lecture recordings on BruinLearn.

Professor Varvarezos is the best!! He is an absolute godsend for 31A compared to what I've heard about other 31A professors (ex. Wu) he's practically a guaranteed A. I mean this from the bottom of my heart when I say I'm god awful at math but his exams are so so easy. I got 100% on both midterms and 96% on the final, my exam performance was better than my HW performance lmao. He doesn't overcomplicate concepts like some instructors tend to and I believe his exams are a fair assessment of what is learned. He allows a double sided notecard for each midterm and a double sided sheet of notes for the final, which is beyond enough. The most challenging part about his class was probably juts a handful of super challenging HW questions that I chegged, but virtually no curveballs were in the exams. Take 31A with Konstantino if you can, a GPA saver!

This professor is AMAZING! He is always nice, helpful, and clear on concepts. The homework assignments are harder than the tests. That is to say, he is not that type of professor that puts up tricky tests. Just go to his lecture, take notes, pay effort, then you’ll get the grade you want. I would strongly recommend this professor to anyone!

He is an awesome professor. His lectures are clear and straightforward. The examples we go over together in class are helpful. What makes him GOOD is that he would NEVER try to trick you on an exam. All problems on the exams are testing your understanding of the most basic ideas. As long as you know the key theorems/definitions and do a fair amount of practice problems, you will nail the exams. Overall, this is an easy class, definitely not a math class that would traumatize anybody.

Really good glass. The homework was very manageable and had a lenient late policy. The exams were reasonable. The lectures were also recorded, but I usually went to them in-person since they were very engaging helpful. Would highly recommend taking Varvarezos if you can

This class pleasantly surprised me because Prof. Varvarezos was not previously reviewed on BruinWalk. He, however, was a very normal lecturer and he described concepts in a clear manner. We were allowed a notes page on all tests and both midterms were very easy; he does not try to fool you on exams. Some people complained that the final was more difficult than the midterms but I did not think it was too bad. If you do bad in this class it's kinda just on you.

I didn't go to lectures but sometimes watched them online. He seemed to be a very good professor and I heard good things about him. Tests were never too hard and the pacing and workload was good.

Konstantinos is an overall amazing professor!

I didn't attend about 4 lectures due to travel, but since the class is BruinCast it's very easy to keep up with the material.

His homework is VERY reasonable- only 6-10 problems per week and is really good practice for tests.

His midterms are also very fair- I found both midterms easy, and they were direct applications of the content learned in class.

The final was relatively difficult compared to the midterms but not unreasonable (just required a deeper level of thinking/understanding).

Konstantinos is a very kind person and always pauses his lecture for people's questions. He is always willing to help students out, so definitely go to office hours if you need help!
Totally recommend this class to prospective students!
