Reviews of professor Benjamin Mackey

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
DrMackey is funny and well spoken, but is seriously lacking in the fair grading department. On many occasions exam problems (there are only 4-5 problems per exam, each with multiple parts) would be graded highly unfairly, for example I would get 3/5 sections of a problem right and show all the work, and over 10 out of 15 points would be deducted.

His lectures were really good for me to understand calculus 1, besides he cared about you learning.

Dr. Mackey is pretty chill and you can tell he is a nice person. He is a great professor for an online class and cares about his students. If you are willing to put in the work, you will get an A! Just study the warm-ups in depth and understand the steps to each question. Do not think you can just cheat and do well since its online. You must study.

Professor Mackey is an excellent professor and one of the best mathematics professor I have ever had. He's incredibly responsive to questions, shows genuine care for his students, thoughtfully explains material, and is very considerate towards the current circumstances of online learning. Highly recommend, please give him a raise.

Professor Mackey is a good professor you just need to ensure you go to class and study for the weekly quizzes. the weekly quizzes are helpful for the exams. Almost exactly what is on the homework goes on the weekly quiz and exam. He does have very nerdy humor, but he's a good guy I'd recommend you take him for calc 2.
