***THIS REVIEW IS FOR 31B***

Her bruinwalk rating is very deceiving - I knew to take her after doing research on reddit and students on there saying she was a decent professor.

She is better than the other 3 math UCLA professors I've had my time here at UCLA. Her tests are difficult but grades them very reasonably, is a good lecturer - I feel that my time spent in class was definitely worthwhile - and she is funny sometimes. She has an accent but she is not difficult to understand.

Like the other review here said, she does move pretty quickly so if you miss something I'd recommend looking over the lecture notes she posts online. Otherwise, re-teaching from the Rogawski calculus textbook was helpful.

I'd highly recommend her for math. I'm not a savage math God by all means, and I still felt that I was able to do reasonably well with some extra effort.

REVIEW FOR 33A:

Best math teacher I’ve had at Ucla thus far. Not sure what the other review is talking about because Bhaskar is so sweet and wonderful and a far better teacher than Liu (had him for 32A). The material does start out easy and pick up the pace really fast. Her lectures are speedy so if you miss something you might be lost. With that said, she’s really good at answering questions. She also assigns such short easy homework so honestly the workload for this class was the lowest workload I’ve had for any math teacher. Her first midterm was sooo easy, I think the average was a 88%. Second one was way harder, average was around a 60% I think. Her final was doable. She holds really good office hours, makes review sheets to help you study, and is awesome at answering questions on the piazza discussion board. I also had an awesome TA, get Harris Khan if you can. To top it off, her grade distribution was so nice. I get a 77% which turned into a B+. She also rounded you up if you were close. NICEST MATH TEACHER EVER, take 33a with her!!!!
