I did not like his class at all. I would not recommend him because he does not know how to explain, he just "proves" you how to get things, he just gives a few examples. He does not spend much time reviewing for his tests. His test is super weird. One of his tests did not have anything to do at all with what we were doing.

He doesnt care about you or you learning at all. He just wants the work done perfectly or he treats u like youre stupid. If I could rate 0 stars I would. Every morning I woke up during his class I wished I didnt.

Prof Zulker really is into mathemathics and is really knowledgeable on what he does. As long as you pay attention and ask questions you should pass. He is very lecture heavy but I took this course during the summer so it was suppose to be faster. Very friendly and fair with his grading. Lets you submit work that you missed.

The worst professor I have ever had in my entire life. He would go through lectures with slides, not explain anything, assume everyone already knows the subject, gives ridiculous amounts of homework (3-5 hours per lesson), tests bizarre subjects irelevant to subject learned, and grades harshly. Takes time to fail the class, but suceed it.

Pros: Knows the subject matter, can convey it to the class in a way that most people can understand, available for after class help, fair grader Cons: Doesn't grade assignments or tests until the very end of the semester, so you have no clue how you're doing, reads off of slides, can be boring, assumes a higher level than the class prerequisites

Zulker is the absolute worst professor I have ever had. He doesn't care about any of the students passing his class, exact words being "I would only be worried about you guys failing if the average for your first test was a 0%..." when the average on the first test was 19%. He gives insane tests that don't match anything you've studied, horrible.
