I transferred to this university in hopes of accessing better education but instead, I ended up with exams over material NOT LECTURED. I have been under the impression that homework and quizzes are meant as a means of evaluating how a student stands on the material and if you feel the same, DO NOT TAKE MATHEMATICS, ESPECIALLY CALCULUS I 151 AND 152. I spent MANY nights (12 hours)attempting ONLINE AND OFFLINE homeworks that were due on the SAME day IN ADDITION to a QUIZ!! ALL ON THE SAME DAY! If you are taking fulltime classes, I STRONGLY encourage you to take these calculus course at Columbus State or some other university, ESPECIALLY if you think you are going to be tested over material that you are familiar with, REGARDLESS of your math background!! I had a STRONG math background and wanted a refresher, and it was a HUGE mistake, considering I paid over 2thousand dollars for this course!! SERIOUSLY, they won't change their methods unless people stop allowing the treatment.

responseIf you hate OSU just because the math department sucks, then you are not seeing the whole picture, or are not making enough out of your college experience. OSU is a greata school, with tons of academic and extracirricular opportunities.

That being said, the math department does suck here. Take as many math courses at your CC as possible, so you don't have to go through the pain and suffering most OSU students go through when taking a math class here.

commentYou are obviously not "super brilliant" because I would not call myself super brilliant and I got great grades in the calulus series at OSU. You have to work hard but it is not horribly difficult.
