I don’t know if it was the fact that I hadn’t taken calculus in high school or the fact that I took pre calculus in my junior year but I found this class pretty difficult. The homework was consistent M/W/F and decently easy besides Friday where you have to break down every component on 5 different problems. But, the grading for this was very harsh, at times I would spend hours working on the Friday homework to only get a 16-18/20. It got very frustrating at times. Additionally most of the time material was digested through group work. I find this method very ineffective because you can often feel isolated or ignorant if you do not understand a problem, at least for me, I opted to move on to the next question rather than harp on a minute detail I was not comprehending. In my opinion, Rose did not take enough time to go over material or check in with people. This became salient when taking the exams, she really likes to teach the bare bones of a concept and then add a bunch of fluff on exam. This made it so you were not being tested on a specific concept but many at once on exams. Therefore, if you did not understand one concept the exams became an extreme undertaking. In all, I would never take this class again and do not recommend it without taking calculus in high school.

Overall Calc with Professor Rose was tough, but honestly the weekly TA hours and group work helped a lot in actually understanding what was being taught in class. Professor Rose did give homework weekly, which was not too bad but the quizzes would be easy but if it was a retake, it was definitely harder than the first round of quizzes.

She was very helpful during office hours and always took the time to explain concepts clearly. She is also very understanding about extensions and genuinely wants students to succeed. At the same time, her final exam is quite challenging, and she assigns a heavy workload, which can feel overwhelming at times. However, the homework is closely tied to the material and helps reinforce key ideas, so students who keep up with it are better prepared for the exam.
