Adam Moreno is super clear. He's actually a good lecturer, which had me shook because I usually don't find lectures helpful. His homeowork assignments are very reasonable and his tests are just like the homework problems. Review the homework before tests and all you'll need to do during the tests is move your pencil from muscle memory. great breather class in a 4-stem quarter.

In the beginning of the class, I was doing very well. I earned an A+ on the first midterm but as class progressed, I failed the second midterm. I don't know how I dropped so low. Although Moreno uploaded videos, they were of little use to me. I thought I could make up for my poor score with the final - I studied very hard for the final and I still failed. Moreno doesn't seem like a horrible person, but if I could take this class with another teacher, I 100% would. He never even replied to my last email concerning my final where I simply asked for him to explain a question I was marked incorrect on.

I thought Dr. Moreno was very clear and direct with his instruction. I took this class as a review of AP Calc BC and it was well-paced and not too overwhelming. If you feel shaky about your Calc BC knowledge I would 10/10 recommend taking this class!

If it is not for Dr. Moreno there is no way I got this letter grade (I am consistently below in both median and average grade). He is very nice and forgiving, and gives very light homework when he knows we will be busy to prepare for tests. His lectures are very clear, even though graph theory is very confusing. It is very easy to make mistakes on tests because there can be so many gaps in knowledge (for instance, getting the right answer but we fail to check all cases or make wrong assumptions). He is definitely one of the best instructors I know so far, and I am very grateful to study this difficult class with his help. If you have a chance, please take him!

I took this class Fall 2020 during the COVID pandemic. Prof Moreno is a funny and nice guy but can be strict sometimes. His exams are 24 hours and open note. There are 2 midterms and a final. The first two midterms have questions similar to textbook problems, but the final was definitely more challenging. The most difficult part of each exam was the true and false conceptual questions where you need to often think of examples as a counterargument. I would recommend to study by doing a bunch of practice problems from the textbook and just searching up conceptual true and false question on google to practice. Each midterm was worth 20% and the final was worth 30%.

I came into this class having taking AP Calc AB and IB Math SL. To me this class was a breeze, but I've always been fairly good at math.
Moreno gave great lectures and would pause to answer questions in chat when they came up. It was clear he wanted you to understand the material.
The required homework problems were straightforward and easy enough to check your answers on. I got an A on every homework because of this.
Tests were a little bit more difficult, but with 24 hours to take them you're likely to get a good grade.

Great Professor and great lecturer. His class was enjoyable and fairly easy. His office hours are very useful and he's very easy to talk to. However, his tests were hard in my opinion but they were definitely doable if you paid attention in class, went to discussion, and went to the occasional office hours.

Good professor. Clear and concise. Not lenient with grading at all or final grades even if you technically got an B, he will give you a B-, etc. Midterms and final exams super difficult, conceptually based.
