An end mill having a plurality of teeth configured for both roughing and semi-finishing applications, the teeth being alternated with a plurality of flutes. At least one tooth of the plurality of cutting teeth is a serrated tooth formed with serrations along a relief surface thereof and at least one other tooth is free of serrations. Each tooth of the plurality of cutting teeth includes an actual internal cutting angle formed at an intersection of a rake cutting sub-surface and a relief surface. The actual internal cutting angle of each tooth has a greater value than an imaginary internal cutting angle formed at an intersection of imaginary extension lines of a rake recessed sub-surface and a relief surface of the same tooth.
