Review:
Professor Benes is by far the best professor I have had so far at Tufts. He genuinely cares about his students' progress and understanding of the material. He also does an excellent job presenting the material, explaining his reasoning every step of the way. He is always available for extra help outside of class, and he will even create additional time to meet with you if his office hours do not work. I found going for one-on-one help was the best way to understand the material.

Calculus II contains a lot of very difficult material and the lessons move very fast. Each exam tests you on an enormous amount of information. To do well you must not only do all the homework and pay attention in class, but also do a lot of heavy-duty cramming before the exam. However, if you have to take Calculus II, definitely try to take it with Professor Benes.

Workload:
A problem set, which usually takes an hour or so, is due at the end of each class. There are three midterm exams and one final, which goes down as two exams. Your lowest exam grade (or half the final) is dropped at the end of the semester. Same as every math class.
