Reviews of professor David Kerr

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Kerr is very smart, but goes off on math tangents for majority of the class time- but we always went over everything needed due to how fast he talks. Fortunately I took Calculus BC in high school and knew most material, for if I hadn't my entire learning would be dependent on the textbook. He has no means of communication

He goes off on tangents in lecture over material not covered in MATH 171. He goes through course material very quickly and it can be hard to pick up. I'd have been lost if I hadn't taken Calc in high school. Homework and lecture attendance aren't required but are highly encouraged due to weekly quizzes. I'd recommend looking into different profs

This dude is AWESOME! He talks a LOT about higher-level math that makes no sense but says you won't be tested over it so I would just close my ears. There was never any required homework and I'm pretty sure he curved grades a lot at the end. Great prof and funny sense of humor.

Dr Kerr has to be one of the best math 171 professors,he really goes into every single concept in depth and helps you understand it Grade is based on two midterms and final,quizzes during recitation,and homework The workload is very low and most of the content is very easy For the test study the homework,review,in class examples,and 151 common exam

Dr. Kerr is a goofy guy, he's fun to listen to when he talks about anything other than math. His calc I class is very conceptual, and I wouldn't know how to do anything if not for having taken calc before and having a great TA. There are very few grades: weekly quizzes, 2 exams, final. Homework is optional and doesn't really prepare you for exams.
