math 31b discussions?

<p>for people who have taken math 31b - are the discussions completely necessary? (i.e. were there weekly quizzes, stuff like that?)</p>

<p>i know this probably varies with the teacher, so please mention the professor you took it with if you have some advice.</p>

<p>i'm worried cause i might not be able to attend due to scheduling conflicts. currently i'm in kahn's 31b lecture, but i could possibly switch to moschavakis, ouelette, or kucherenko. The lecture time isn't a problem for me, its just the discussions that tend to conflict...</p>

<p>you don’t need to go to math discussions unless you want the ta to explain the material again or just to get homework/midterms.</p>

<p>but you can’t sign up for two classes if even their discussions conflict</p>

<p>cool. which teacher did you have, arklogic? its just that i’ve heard some 31b teachers give quizzes during discussion.</p>

<p>I want Khan for Math 31b,but I can’t fit the class to my schedule. =[</p>

<p>I have kucherenko right now, but I heard she is hard? </p>

<p>Who is the best math 31b teacher for fall?</p>

<p>

Hard doesn’t mean anything because all these classes are curved. Kucherenko is an excellent lecturer and knows lots about integrals. She will make certain exams challenging in order to force a distribution (like if everyone does well on both midterms, she’ll make the final hard). Otherwise, her tests are fair and doable.</p>

<p>Does anyone have Khan? i have him for 31B + discussion in geology.</p>
