<p>Thanks everyone for your encouraging comments and helpful advice.
BCEagle91, I especially appreciate your detailed analysis.</p>
<p>She is freshman and took CALC BC as a junior and did very well on the AP test and the class. Her high school failed her in not introducing proofs. She knows that she is at a clear disadvantage compared to those who had it in high school.</p>
<p>I know that it is not cool to complain about teachers, and fwiw, she’s usually not a complainer. She has nothing against them personally but sees that the circumstances under which the graduate student was urgently called to run the class, that maybe he wasn’t prepared as he should have been.</p>
<p>What is the purpose of problem sets? My understanding is that they are practice for the concepts taught in class. My daughter feels that that the TA and teacher are teaching two different classes. She does fine on quizzes which the TA gives and covers the problem set material, however, the midterm was made by the teacher which covered problems which left her totally clueless.</p>
<p>gravenewworld, so is it never possible to get it? How disappointing.</p>
