Tufts University: Christoph Borgers - Mathematics - Professor ratings, reviews and much more | JumboAccess
Christoph Borgers | MATH046 - Linear Algebra| Mathematics2006-02-22

Review:
Avoid this class like the plague. He seems like he knows his shit but is pretty terrible at conveying it. He rambles on about theoretical things and does not teach how to actually apply theories. Puts way too much emphasis on proofs for most people's liking.

Workload:
Workload was more than usual. He gives mostly theoretical problems that are really difficult. His weekly homework was near impossible - class average was 5/25 on one. Tests were hard but he scaled one a few points and had a quiz to help bring up grades on another. The final was brutal - to be thoroughly prepared for the exam, he suggested we solve a review sheet with questions totally unrelated to the test...oh ya and he didnt give answers to it. Nice guy though.
