Mary Beck is the best. The material itself is VERY hard, and if you're looking for an easy A, this is not the section for you. But if you're looking for a professor who genuinely cares about you and teaches the material in a fun and interesting way, take this section. Go to office hours, as they can turn out to be both useful and enjoyable.

Mary Beck is absolutely the greatest professor at UVA. Go to office hours, and you will learn some great life advice, and many interesting things about Prof. Beck. She is the coolest person ever. The class is challenging, but she is more than willing to help. I love her so much and wish she taught every math class. Get her if you can!!!

Excellent teacher! I took this calss before and had a grade i didnt expect, so i decided to take it again with Prof Beck. She makes the subject easier and more fun. I actually like the class now thanks to her. She is really enthusiastic about teaching and offering the best of her helping hand.

Professor Beck is quite simply the best, most intelligent, clearest, most helpful professor here at UVA. APMA is difficult, that's why you'd be insane to take it with any other professor. You won't find anyone else like her.

Comment:
I had professor Beck for three semesters (APMA 1090, 1010, 2010) and she is definitely chill. A little spacey at times, but otherwise extremely friendly and fun to talk to. She makes obscure material clear and her class is pretty fair... But with all apma classes, a lot of homework and studying needs to be before you can do well in her class.

Professor Beck has a great understanding of the material and is a really cool person overall. This class is really hard but Prof. Beck gave a lot to help us through it. I highly recommend her.

I took Calc I and II with Prof Beck. She is by far the most helpful professor I've had, she really looks out for her students. She presents the material in a manner that just makes it extremely easy to understand. Weekly quizzes are alright, exams are pretty intense. Do the homework and pay attention in class.

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. Hands down best calculus teacher Ive ever had.I'm taking APMA 1110 with her right now.I actually took the same course with Pisano last semester and failed... Beck is like a calc god though. She makes the class fun and engaging and does lots of practice probs. She knows everyone's name and'll call on u.Wish I had her last sem..

You don't take this class for the grade because the average is a C. You take it for the professor.

Comment:
If you don't choose Mrs. Beck as a teacher, you are ill-informed and unwise. You are unlikely to find a better calculus teacher on grounds, especially one as friendly, open, and willing as she. Best advice ever? Never study. If you're prepared everyday, you won't need to.
