Prof. Joshi was hard to understand most of the time, but his tests aren't too bad. It's a true shame he passed away though. Definitely an enjoyable and interesting class if you like linear algebra.

Comment:
I know you all hated him, but HEY, if you asked for help, you would get it!!! Super nice giving extra marks for the tests and explaining why not, if not. Long WebAssigns, yet a good practice. Hard to understand his accent, but if you sit at the front and listen carefully, it's manageable. It's not his fault. Noise is YOUR fault and YOUR problem!!

Comment:
Horrible professor. His accent makes it difficult to understand and in a whole lecture he completes about 2 questions - that too with a galore of mistakes. He assigns millions of very lengthy WebAssigns. Its practically useless to go to his lectures. You will be way better off if you just stay away and study yourself. Never again. Bellcurve sumtyms

He is pretty hard to follow because of his accent and age. But truth be told he knows his stuff and if you pay attention he explains it well. Though very hard to pay attention. Tests are easy if you go through practice problems

Comment:
He's a double-edge sword, in the sense that attendance is useless. You have to teach yourself the entire course. The textbook is very helpful and so are the webassign questions. His tests are long, but manageable. He Gaussian distributes grades like no tomorrow, every test was a +10 to +15% bump. If you want easy marks enroll.

If you can learn from a textbook, do it that way because it's hard to follow him in class. He's quite disorganized. However, I still found his tests to be easy.

It's impossible to understand what he's saying in his lectures and to following along with his notes (no power-point, just chalk board). He does use the textbook a lot though, do the homework assignments, DO ALL PRACTICE/REVIEW QUESTIONS IN THE BOOK, and form a study group.

Comment:
He's a nice man, but he SUCKS at teaching math. He makes quite a lot of mistakes, too, even on tests. I doubt that he enjoys teaching this material, and I think he's kind of ruining an important subject for a lot of students, who probably leave more confused than they came in. Avoid unless you have no choice (as I didn't).

I received an A in this class, but only because I've taken calc before. This professor is just about useless where teaching is concerned, and I'm pretty sure he couldn't care less. The tests are typical, challenging math exams, but almost *nothing* that's "taught" in class will prepare you for them. Be prepared to study on your own, seriously.

Go watch him rewrite the textbook on the board.. each class students leave early and he gets upset and gives the rest of the class horrible attitude, disgusted looks and treats you like fools. Spend 2 months doing 1000 problems and he barely narrows down what to focus on for the final..some of the examples from the the text might be of use.. bah..

Very difficult to understand, makes many mistakes with problems done in class. Does not refer text book questions for the exam or tests. Makes mistakes when marking and very rude with responses towards students in class and through email.
