Reviews of professor Joshua Qualls

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Qualls gave tough HWs, but he was always really helpful when we asked questions about them. The class got behind, so we had a couple of due dates that extended for the last week of class and into finals week, but I have to say he fairly graded my work. I also learned a loooooooot

Lots and lots of high level homework. You do a lot of self teaching by the homework. A lot of "problems" are left out of lecture for students to figure out on homework. Gave a large homework and 2 take home exams DURING finals week.

Very fun and amusing professor, he can speed through the content sometimes, but the class is overall fun. The test can be very difficult if you don't study.

Dr. Qualls was very knowledgeable but seemed to forget that we were in an intro class. The class was very lecture-heavy most of the time. Extra credit on exams is available. Do not expect to get an email back quickly. The book is not required and will not be used. Expect to purchase homework software.

I had him for a summer online Calc 2 course, so a lot of the issues I had with the course were beyond his control. But, I feel like hes a pretty hard grader and picks the hardest problems possible for the exams. It was somewhat punishing. However, he's more than willing to help and extend assignments, and usually answers his emails.

I took this with Qualls online during summer. It went like garbage, and I rated him low. Now I'm doing it with him in class and the difference is UNREAL. Take in person if you can, I'm going to get an A now

Qualls is an amazing professor. Definitely a very challenging course, but most days lectures are entertaining. Dr. Qualls gets to know his students and teaches content in a humorous way. He emails back consistently - even if it's late, and he definitely feels easy to talk to. Exams are tough, but if you study well, you should do decently. Loved it.

Qualls is one of the best professors I have had. The class was really difficult for me because I had no prior experience with the subject, but he was really understanding and always ready to help. I probably wouldn't take this class again, but he made it bearable. Super cool professor for sure!

Dr. Qualls was really helpful outside class whenever I had questions, and usually responded to emails within an hour. He gives a lot of homework, but he loves to give participation points, so if you do even a little bit, you're getting a decent grade. He also has a great sense of humor and is personable.
