  I had Dr. Liatti for calc II and loved him! He's definitely a yapper during lectures, but he gives hints on all the tests. Super fair grader and definitely approachable if you need to ask questions about homework or exams. He is always willing to negotiate your grade on tests if you explain how you got your answer (within reason).

  Professor Liatti was great. He would push back homework if he didn't reach that point in the lecture and would give practice problems for tests. On top of that, he would provide equations for each question except for the final. He also dropped the lowest test grade.

  Lots of homework

  Great Calc 2 Professor. I was always told calc 2 was the hardest, but its not that bad with Liatti. He's hilarious, tests are pretty easy. The final is terrible (he doesn't write it), but Liatti is great. He's quick at answering emails and is always willing to help. Go to the weekend study sessions because they really help too. Hw isn't bad.

  The realest math professor you will have at Auburn. He WILL give you hints on tests. He drops one test and three homeworks, and he will round your grade if you have good attendance at recitation. The final is rough but you will get a lot of practice problems to prepare. Calc 2 is really hard, but he made it bearable.

  Dr. Liatti is great. He always complains about stuff from the department so he likes to make stuff as easy as possible for students. Tests are easym and he always moves back homework assignments when not enough people have finished it, which saved me a few times. Go to class and to recitation and the class is managable.

  Lots of homework given on WebAssign, he's always complaining about how the problems on the website arent good and are way too difficult but doesn't really do much about it. Tests are nothing like the types of problems worked in class, however, he is somewhat lenient with the partial credit so it isn't that bad. Not great, but could be much worse.

  Liatti is a very kind and understanding professor. His exams were pretty easy for the level of the class. Final is common and harder than Liatti's. I probably could've made an A if I didn't have ochem at the same time. Scaled the final to make my grade exactly a B. Not great at technology but that didn't affect me much. Highly recommend him.

  You should take him if you are taking cal 2 or cal 1. I think he is the best calculus professor in this college. He is an easy grader and gives the best lectures for us. I mean it's calculus so it is hard if you don't study, but if you study what he is given, you can get a good grade. He gives extra credit and takes off the lowest test exam.

  Liatti is the best! If you're taking cal 2, take Liatti. If you do badly, you can email him and he will usually let you retake for partial credit. He wants you to do well and holds several extra homework/study sessions outside of class. 100% the best and also pretty funny

  Dr. Liatti was a great instructor for Cal2. He was funny and the lectures weren't boring. He held numerous study sessions throughout the week, frequently moved back homework deadlines, and specifically laid out what sections would be on each quiz and test. Attendance was optional at lectures, but the recitation was mandatory.

  Liatti is a good guy. The material is hard but it is going to be hard wherever you take it. His lectures are very heavy, but you can follow him. He sometimes tells stories. He often delays HW deadlines, and gives you an update daily. Final exam is brutal, but it is made by Auburn. He makes the tests. Its hard but I would take him again for sure

  Tests are medium difficulty, but if you attend the review sessions and do practice problems on the webassign homework, it helps tremendously. His tests are very fair, and he's generous in partial credit; dropped the lowest test grade, but make sure to prepare for the final. It's not made by him, and it reflects the material he taught in a hard way.

  Dr. Liatti is amazing! I can tell he really cares about his students and making sure we succeed. He is easy to get in touch with outside of class and gives lots of review opportunities. He gives formulas on exams, which is always nice because there is a lot of material covered on each exam. As long as you do the homework and study you can get an A.

The test are not too bad and a lot of partial credit is given. This class requires effort but is very easy to pass with a good grade.

  Calculus 2 is a hard class, but Dr. Liatti knows that. His understanding of the material shines through his natural ability to distill difficult information into easily comprehendible bits of information. Yes, it is a hard class, but Dr. Liatti will be on your side, urging you to keep going. He can't make the class easier, but he makes it bearable.
