Here’s what Cornell students say about LSC Supplemental Courses:

• “The manner in which the course was taught was extremely helpful. The presentation of examples of multiple levels of difficulty and the opportunity to work through the step-by-step solutions made the course extremely effective.”
• “It gave a very direct, clear, and simple reinforcement of course material.”
• “The supplemental course offered me extra time to spend focusing on the material in a structured environment.”

The LSC also offers stand-alone courses in study skills and calculus preparation. Here’s what Cornell students say about LSC’s other courses:

• “HE1115 taught me how to schedule out my week. This helped me stay organized and productive, more so than I have ever been.”
• “I didn’t feel prepared enough for Math 1110.  Math 1101 is giving me the tools I will need to do well in calculus next semester.”
• “The course allowed us to work together in solving problems that may give us difficulty in class.”
• “Really good class for seeking extra help and attention.”
