Math 154 Ladislav Stacho?

edited December 2009 in General
I have Math 154 with Ladislav Stacho in the Spring.. I am scared!
Mostly because calculus terrifies me. I did Math 100 last Spring.. and then of course stupidly waited a year to take Math 154.
What were people's experiences with Math 154? Anyone from here taken it? How about with Stacho?

Also have Kin 207 with some prof I've never heard of, must be a sessional or something.. they haven't even put up the outline!

    I took MATH 154 in my first semester with a sessional MSc. Prof who was from Liberia and couldn't speak English properly. I did good on my first midterm, then bombed my 2nd midterm because I skipped out the homework. I aced the final because I worked on homework again, and got an A in the end.

    Math 154 + 155 aren't too bad. The important thing is to do your homework (which counts for part of your grade anyways). Do the practice problems and you should be fine. Don't "read" the steps and rules, but actually "do" the problems.

    There aren't many "tricks" to the exams, and are pretty much the same from Prof to Prof.
