This article focuses on analyzing the effects that the COVID-19 pandemic has generated in the delivery of mathematics courses at the Autonomous University of Nuevo León (UANL), the highest house of studies in northern Mexico. To this end, an online survey is applied to 748 undergraduate students in the second quarter of 2020. With the information collected, a Tobit model censored by the right is used, which allows quantifying the academic performance of students before and during confinement in their math courses or subjects at this macro university. Among the main results is the application of software and digital platforms in the teaching of mathematics courses during the health contingency, increasing the efficiency of the students in the solution and completion of the exercises and the laboratories, commissioned by the teachers, in a 23.2%, while the average time to carry out a line of 25.4 and 50.8 minutes, respectively.
