took 6A with him during the fall, got mogged but thought it was bc I didn't study hard enough so took him again for 108A. safe to say it was not a me problem bc 6A and 108A are the only math classes I've gotten lower than a B in (I have taken 4A, 4B,6A, 8, 108A, 117). take him for fun, since he is hilarious, but not if you care abt your GPA.

Freakbob here, I sat through this class with my girlfriend and did homework for other classes. Waqar got all the bruzz and huzz tweaking throughout the quarter with his quizzes and even let me take a few. I honestly had no idea what his yap sessions were about, but take this class for a fun time not a good time.

Me and Freakbob thoroughly enjoyed taking MATH108A with Waqar. He was very funny but his exams and quizzes cooked me. His grading policy was generous, but buckle up for a difficult course. P.S. if you read this Freakbob wants to apologize for not seeing you one last time.

He has bad lectures where he mumbles and writes notes without explaining. Even when asked to explain, he answers questions the answers are vague and full of advanced math terms which makes it difficult to understand without knowing the topics. Also, the homework is often very difficult and requires much more work than examples found in lecture

Prof Shah radiates pure aura. Literally the only boomer I can vibe with. HOWEVER don't take his class unless you want your grade to go straight into the skibidi toilet. His exams will straight up mog you. Love the vibes, hate the trauma. 1/10

don't have great things to say about him. his handwriting is really bad, so you can't understand anything he writes. He also expects us to understand everything from his handwritten notes beforehand and lecture is only a "discussion". It was impossible to learn anything from them, so I only attended for pop quizzes. exams are rough with no curve
