<p>Which one is easier? Which one would give me better preparation for upper division math courses?</p>
<p>I love Frenkel! Had him for 53 in Fall 09. Did you know he made a movie called: “The Rites of Love and Math”? He is such a young hipster with a cool Russian accent. I never went to class but his midterms and finals weren’t that particularly difficult. Got an A in his class.</p>
<p>I love Professor Stankova! She taught Math1a one year, really knows her stuff, and lectures really organizing-ly. Her midterm and final were reasonable also. Not sure how she will be for 53, but probably the same. She has a Bulgarian accent, quite charming.</p>
<p>It looks like both professors are good.</p>
<p>Frenkel. He’s a decent teacher and gives very fair midterms and finals.</p>
<p>If you do have Frenkel, you’ll never have to go to his lectures.
He is considered decent not because he is actually good, but others are even worse.
He always put me to sleep (maybe because it was from 3:30 to 5) and I would always check my watch every 10 minutes waiting for to be 5 o’clock.</p>
<p>I think Stankova was a great lecturer. You’re lucky! Seems like you can’t go wrong with either.</p>
