Not with work or a full load of classes but I like to be challenged mentally. But I would also tell them that they need to focus their energy in the first four months of calculus. One more thing, something that I mentioned earlier, is don?t get cocky. The only thing I would do differently is I would teach everything including the polar graphs, parametric functions, hyperbolic functions and so on. Remembering what I thought I needed to do or did do in this class will greatly help me because by the time the next class comes around, I will be back to my usual ways of procrastination and laziness. This gave the students a good idea of what to study and also showed how to solve the problems if they were fuzzy on how to solve them. I felt these were more like simple geometry and I even remember the trapezoidal rule from earlier math classes.
