Dr. Siva for 2P04. Dr. Inglis' voice is probably the easiest thing to fall asleep to. Plus, Dr. Siva makes the midterms, so you'd likely get better hints and study tips.
For math, I liked Kovarik. He goes pretty slow and writes every single step down. Not many other people seem to like him much though. Didn't Protas teach math last year? Try asking around and see what people thought about him.

ya ithought it was kind funny how we really have no choices. so everyone will be in one class for half of the courses. as long as math doesn't turn into what happened first year with childs all should be good. now as for my schedule i put protas and inglis in my mock up since protas's class time worked better since it wasnt at 830 am and it fit around my other classes and i just put inglis for the hell of it for now but i might switch it. at this point i don't think it will matter much since all the other teachers we are stuck with. i guess it's nice to try and choose wisely for the very few choices we have.

I had protas term one for 1z04. His notes are word for word from the textbook, you cant ask him to do questions you didnt get from the homework in class (he tells you to email him a list of questions the day before the review class) - overall your better off teaching yourself

I thought the same... stopped going to class around the last month of the semester.
I have a feeling I'm going to be learning 2Z03 and 2ZZ3 on my own from the book like I did with 1Z04 and 1ZZ5 last year :( |
