Comment:
Worst Prof ever. If I had any other choice, I would have never taken him. He is a very tough grader and impossible to pass any of his exams. Take another Prof if you have the option. If you don't have the option, DON'T TAKE PROF FARAG for the sake of your GPA . He's not worth the struggle. He doesn't teach most of the materials that comes in exams.

Comment:
This guy is the best professor I had at FDU. No, I didnt get the best grade. But, I blame that more on myself. His teaching and homework policies are thorough and straightforward. He definitely takes pride in his lectures and I can see why. Its not easy, but it shouldnt be either. Hes a pretty funny guy. Take advantage of office hours!

Comment:
Before the Final, I had a solid B-. After the final, I had a D. I had to retake the course to go to the next level. (C- or better to move up). The Final covered Lims (t-inf) and lims (t-0). It also a lot of the previous tests. Proving how this function has one zero in the interval -1,0. To study for the tests, DO THE PRACTICE TESTS HE GIVES OUT

Farag's class is very challenging but the material is very straight forward. He can teach. I don't own a physical book and only used MyMathLab for both HW and to study. There is no curve or extra credit. Quiz every friday except for SOS exam weeks. Quiz is based on the HW. Study the hard problems well. Drops 2 quizzes, 1 exam and 1 HW. Good luck

Comment:
He is a tough grader. The homework is all through MyMathLab. Never touched the physical book. No curve. Not recommended unless you have taken this math course in the past. I learned the material through the MyMathLab study plan and homework. He can teach, but it is fast and unless you can write fast while listening. you have little hope. No iPhones

Comment:
Had no choice but to take this course with Dr. Farag and I was a little worried since he was so tough in Discrete, but it was actually manageable and I learned a lot about the theoretical aspects of CS. He reused a lot of the problems from the homework and lecture, so focus on those when you study.

Professor Farag was a good professor. He did ramble on and occasionally lost the class but overall he was very helpful. Although the lecture is long it isn't worth skipping.

Great class that shows you where all that Calc is used. It's a hard course, but farag breaks everything down in lecture and office hours if you go. Don't expect to skate by. Do the homework and study and you should be ok.

Has an attitude toward students who are struggling. He's an extremely tough grader, nearly impossible to pass any of his weeks quizes or tests. My whole class is failing and we're praying he curves at the end. Take another teacher if you have the option. He's not worth the struggle

Comment:
Mark Farag is teaching good but the Fact part He does not understand the concept Theory in General Mathematics especially the Concept in Algebra and their applications because Mark Farag does not understand the applications in Algebra theories and the structure connection between apply Theories concepts and their applications.

He teaches well but gives no extra credit or curve. Just show him some respect and he'll like you. His homework is all Math-Lab and relatively short so its an easy grade booster. He gives a quiz a week and 3 or 4 exams which are more difficult than the taught material. He grades harshly and even the quizzes are extremely tough. Tryyour best to pass

He's a very nice person. He teaches very well. However, his tests and quizzes are challenging. You need to work hard to earn an A. But he's always there to help you if you ask for it.
