MATH 3A SELLING BOOK!!!
Calculus for Biology & Med (3rd) with solution manual!!
Neuhauser pub: Pearson Edu
ISBN: **********642
looking for $95 or best offer!!!
HMU (text) **********
(This textbook was used for my math 3C class too)
Paige Greene was the best! TAKE HER!!! She like a mom and cares about her students a lot. Some people said she goes into too much detail about the easy things, but I think that was good because she doesn't want people making stupid mistakes. Also people may have forgotten the calculus they learn in high school, so she was very helpful in showing you how she got the answer. Again she is the best!!!
I actually quite liked the new Adler textbook she experimented with, and it probably made Math and Calculus easier for me. I was never good at theorems, proofs and the like, and I was thankful that this textbook cut out as much of it as possible. Even though the material was new and Discrete Time Dynamical Systems were unfamiliar to most, the concepts were definitely not difficult to grasp or comprehend.
Professor Greene may not be completely professional at times, i.e. she can get angry and rage at us, but she is definitely one of the most caring and concerned professors I've come across. She takes as much free time out of her schedule as possible to help us before midterms and finals and makes sure that her students have their questions answered. I was very grateful that she held so many office hours because my TA, Joshua Lampkins, was completely and utterly useless.
She does make the midterms more straightforward for a lot of people and if you understand how to do all the homework questions she assigns, you'll do well in them. Unfortunately, this implies that she has to make the final harder. The final had 20 MCs and 2 word problems and strangely, I found the MCs trickier than the word problems. That being said, if you know how to do all the homework questions she sets, and understand the logic behind the material thoroughly, you'll do well.
I got an A+ for this course and I was not expecting to do so well. People who find her difficult or find this course difficult need to change their study habits; go to her office hours for anything you feel remotely confused about.
This quarter for Math 3A, Greene tested out a new textbook. Usually, all Math 3A Professors use the Claudia Neuhauser book. She chose to use the Fredrick Andler book, which deals with "Discrete Time Dynamical Systems." Let me just say- I HATED THIS BOOK. It made calculus a lot harder than it needed to be and we were introduced to material that I had never in my life seen before...
Now about Professor Greene... She's a sweet person.. well sometimes. I have mixed feelings for her. She became a lot harsher with grading than she ever was before.. and she is really mean at random times... Like one time she bursted out in lecture saying she was going to start teaching and if we didn't pay attention she would still test us on it (she walked in a little late and that's the first thing that came out of her mouth). Another time she scolded about homework and she is big on neatness. You lose points if your work is not neat. Oh and she randomly sends out mean e-mails like "Go to your TA's for help, I cannot help you all the time" if you ask for a re-gade, she says drop your paper off I will not regrade in front of you and she will return it with no changes... Even if you deserved the points... That's all I have to say to that...
The midterms were difficult, but not too difficult... Now the final.. wow. That was the hardest final I have EVER taken. What I did not like the most? It was part multiple choice. I hate multiple choice on a mathematical exam because if you miss a negative or you did the right steps but got the wrong answer... well there goes your points... and there were two free response questions (WHICH WERE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT BY THE WAY) Most of the class took the full three hours to complete the exam...
Honestly, she makes math more difficult than it really is suppose to be. If i can avoid her I will. I cannot stand her, her existence bothers me. I dont get why people become teachers if their ultimate goal is not going to help students. Get into another profession if you are not going to be good at what you do! I don't undertand the meaning of worthless teachers who believe everyone is at the same academic understanding at them. Your are literally useless to students trying to understand the concepts! btw. I know she be smoking that sohcahtoa before she write the test. My blood boils thinking about her.
