Doable if you've taken precalc before. Not professor Daley's fault but the fault of the class bc it's designed around an awful textbook and online system

Great professor, class lectures and activities were very useful. Need to attend classes to do well and does affect grading. Much of workbook done during class directly applies to quizzes and exams. There is a lot of homework; but, that is expected for a Math class since to really understand the concepts and solution strategies requires practice.

Dr. Daley is such a sweet lady. She cares about her students and how well they do in her class. Her notes for Math117 are fill in the blank and easy to follow. She walks you through everything and helps with the homework when she can. She wants you to succeed and will help you however she can.

Daley is an overall great professor. Her notes for Math 117 were fill in the blank which i found super helpful with following along. I got really sick at the beginning of class and she was very helpful during office hours and let me make up the work when i could. Shes super caring and as long as you put forth the effort you will do well in class.

Basic math class. Daley sits at the front and reads out random information while quickly showing how to do them. Not a great professor, would try to find another.

Overall an amazing professor & person. She encourages feedback during her lecture and answers questions thoroughly making sure youre not confused. I added this class late and also missed class because I was sick & she was super easy to get in touch with and was very understanding and helpful. Also she uploads her lectures online. Take this class!

Amazing professor. Makes sure that everything on exams is covered. What you see on exams is EVERYTHING from the workbook and web assign work so as long as you know how to do them, you'll pass the exams. She is very empathetic and she will go out of her way to work with you if you ask for help.

Professor Daley is easily my favorite professor this semester. Her workbook seems tedious at first but exams are basically the work book problems with different numbers. Overall the class was relatively easy having already taken pre calc in high school. Lots of homework but she gives you the chance to get extra credit on multiple quizzes and exams.

Dr Daley was ok she didn't really teach. You have to learn everything on your own outside of class and class time is spent working on problems and group stuff. If you have a good math background it is doable, but get help if you need it because it is there. Also, go to class and do the problems for practice. Stay on top of the online stuff too

Dr. Daley is a nice lady, always looking to help. BUT how math 115 is set up, it's an extremely difficult class. ALL learning is done on your own time by watching videos and doing online math topics. A lot of effort is required to do well in this class so beware. Tests are partially on a computer which is unforgiving and doesn't give partial credit

I took MATH117 with Dr. Daley. Having studied Pre-Calc in high school I was familiar with much of the material covered however I did have trouble keeping up with the lectures. She lectures in a very fast-passed manner and flys through some topics which makes it hard to keep track of.

Daley speaks and goes through material very quickly, but she's an excellent professor. She's kind and very willing to help if you ask. Do WebAssign and the textbook problems (textbook problems are not mandatory) if you need extra practice. Tests are fair and not particularly difficult. Attendance IS mandatory, and worth it. She's great!

Professor Daley is a very nice person and seems to care very much about her students; however, you will be teaching yourself the topics and spending 10+ hours a week on homework. This class is a lot of work but if you understand what you are doing you will do well, if you have never taken pre-calc before, this class is not for you.

An overall easy class if you know what you're doing. Daley is an decent teacher. Expect lots of homework & classwork. Attendance is necessary, if you miss more than 8 classes, you'll go down a whole letter grade . Has two exams & one final, which are fairly easy if you understand the subject and you can pick the date & time you want to take it.

I took her class after already taking Pre-Calc in high school, and i failed the first 3 exams. Her class is impossible, and the only class I failed freshman year, 10/10 would not recommend.

Comment:

If you didn't take precalc in high school, you're going to fail. She doesn't explain anything in detail, or at all. She also just expects you to know everything when you come into class. I learned everything two years before coming into class and she found ways to confuse me about things I already knew. Depending on the TA, you'll need to do the hw

Overall the class isn't hard. It should be a refresher from high school. The only thing is that the tests are tough not because of the material, but because it's multiple choice and if you make a stupid mistake and get one wrong, that's 10 points off your grade. Just be careful and do lots and lots of practice problems!

WORST TEACHER I EVER HAD! SO rude and not helpful. All you do is group work in class so I hope you can learn all the material yourself. I was surprised at how bad she was because she had so many good ratings on here. DO NOT RECOMMEND AT ALL!

The class revolves around solving city planning problems. She usually doesn't check HW, but attendance is a must! Daley is a bit dull, but very nice. She really cares about what she's teaching and is very concerned with the success of her students. The grading system is kind of annoying, but I did pretty well even without putting in much effort.
