CMPSC16 . Matni Z A A Month Ago

Professor Matni made me actually want to come to class. Very enjoyable course. The way he structured it was very forgiving and low-stress for me as a student. Quizzes every other week just as a learning check, lowest one gets dropped. Pretty easy if you show up to class. Final was fair. No midterms. He's a very funny guy.

Professor Matni is one of the best in the CS department. He's funny, fair, and a great communicator. The class is tough but his lectures and office hours are set up for you to succeed. He makes sure you understand the content if you put in the work. Quizzes are every other week (one dropped), no midterm, and a fair final. Take his class if you can!

Great prof and great lecturer who is a genuinely nice guy, grade is based on homework which he grades very strictly, biweekly quizzes which are challenging but you should be fine if you go to lecture and study (he drops lowest one), and final which was hard but straightforward

Great lectures, very obvious that Professor Matni cares about his students' learning and the subject itself. He teaches with both slideshows and code demonstrations, so the lectures aren't hard to understand.

Professor Matni is awesome! I've had him for two different classes now, and each time, his enthusiasm and attitude make learning easier and more enjoyable. No midterm, quizzes every other week and a final exam, plus weekly homework and sections. Teacher and TAs are easy to reach for questions, and helpful with explanations!

Super good lecturer. Homeworks were hard, but prepared you well for quizzes/final. exams made up 70% of your grade. very fair grading on quizzes, exams, and hw. difficult class overall but that should be expected. highly recommend going to lectures and office hours
