CHE180A . Chada J P 2 Months Ago

Another quarter, another set of classes with Chada. First quarter design is always a punch to the gut, but I did appreciate the lectures given and honestly Chada is a great professor for anything that needs to be taught and applied.

CS8 . Mirza D 2 Months Ago

I took CS8 over the summer so it was over six weeks. You can tell that she really cares about her students but she would go on tangents and talk to us like we were third year comp sci majors instead of total beginners. I also think the difficulty between the exercises on Zybooks and her quizzes were astronomically different. She's really nice tho.

CMPSC8 . Mirza D 2 Months Ago

This class was manageable. The course structure was pretty easy with only 25% of your grade coming from Exams. The rest of the 75% can be earned pretty easily if you put in time and do the assignments. Lectures were long and boring with iClicker questions throughout. Final was manageable, with a sheet of notes allowed for the exam.

The professor is really nice and easy to work with. All the homework and labs are on Zybooks witch which was an easy program to use. There are no midterm, just a final exam and project at the end of the quarter. The final exam is hard but the project is fun and easy and will help boost your grade.
