Any review carried over from elsewhere is marked with its source on its own line. - **4/5 · 2024-01** — MATH 202 is very manageable if you use the recommended textbooks and study them weekly; doing so lets you engage well with the material and do well in the course. - **4/5 · 2023-11** — Yamani is recommended for MATH 202 in terms of grades and workload. - **4/5 · 2024-01** — Farouk Abi Khuzam is an excellent and amazing professor for MATH 202, though his tests are difficult. - **2021-07** — Professor Yamani doesn't go deep in explanation at all. He just mentions the definitions and the theorem, explains briefly and jumps to solving exercises. For those who just want to know how to solve and get high grades this is more than enough! This course needs practice, knowing the proofs isn't that important for the exam, so many consider Prof. Yamani a great choice. - **2019-11** — You have to attend his classes and take notes.... average was around high 40s and 50s but he did a 25 point raise for the overall grade... u can pass exams( without any raise) if u study notes and syllabus. He is very smart ,and friendly specially during his office hours .He is very sharp with appointments. I took the course with him and it was not that bad at all. The problem that the first quiz was very hard , then he started making good to hard exams that u can get higher grade but not HIGH. You will feel better and start think outside the box and get used to his exams. He gave us many extra questions before quiz 2 and final that were very helpful for the exams. He is not that bad . If u don't have a better instructor he is not the worst - **2019-11** — The main problem was that the students could not adapt to his way of teaching, which involved you actually understanding mathematics rather than memorizing it (it is also really advanced for a Math 102 course). I managed to cope with his style of teaching and not only did I get high 80's, but I'm confident that his way of teaching changed my way of thinking so much that I'm confident that I'm able to tackle other harder Math courses. - **2019-11** — Sabra is the best for math 202. You can ace the course easily with him! - **2019-11** — He's really one of my favorite math teachers. HIGHLY recommended to take the course with him!! - **2019-11** — Easily the most brilliant math 202 teacher I've ever seen and his tests are always fair. And he offers a raise so it doesn't really end up affecting your ranking. - **2019-11** — Tlas-the only one who gives the course in fall the best math professors I've ever seen at AUB. A very well-organized man, a great clarification,a gentleman , always willing to help, and most importantly: his EXAMS are NOT as hard as people claim to be. - **2019-08** — Don't be late to class and you'll be fine :P He's a really good teacher and helps you practice while in class and he doesn't mind repeating until you understand. - **2019-08** — ahmad Sabra is so kind and his notes are enough. - **2019-08** — Sabra is the best. You can ace the course easily with him ## See also - [All Mathematics courses at AUB](https://studiety.com/aub/subject/mathematics.md) - [Every AUB subject](https://studiety.com/aub/subjects.md) --- From Studiety (https://studiety.com/), an independent, student-run course guide.
