I'm about to graduate and Majedi is the worst professor I have ever had. Even if you were a master in the subject, you would still not pass this class. The work she gives out is so difficult and obscure that the entire lecture hall finds it ridiculous when it's handed out. And she WILL walk by and ask why you're stuck on the problem. Just avoid.

Majedi is honestly a great person, some improvements in lectures but is great. Personally I struggled but I talked to her and TA's and attended every office hour, and expressed what I need help with and they genuinely want you to succeed. Just connect and study a lot because it is difficult. (make sure to attend everything and do worksheets)

Lectures were not that helpful but make sure to go and do the worksheets because she curves you if you complete them. Homeworks were annoying and did not help at all with the tests. There are good practice worksheets at Office Hours if you need them and exam review sessions were helpful. Make sure to know pointers, memory, linked list, recursion.

Majedi is SO kind & cares about her students SO much. Really good lectures, but lots you learn on your own (Zybooks, slides). Midterm was a time crunch & she responded by giving SO much time on the final. Material isn't that hard. Uses your attendence&effort to determine your personal grade bump. Put in lots of effort and time and you will be fine.

HW/lectures weren't as helpful for exams as I would have liked, but online textbook had everything we needed. Decent lecturer and gives opportunities for students to get extra points.

Majedi is the nicest CS Prof you'll ever have. Her class was difficult but she gives so many resources and wants you to do well, there's OH for multiple hours every day either with her, the TAs, or the ULAs. She uses attendance at lectures and office hours to determine whether or not to bump your grade — taking her again next quarter she's amazing.

Terrible lectures, hard to understand, test heavy

Majedi genuinely loves CS, teaching, & her students. She's willing to listen to criticism & feedback. Very tough & expects a lot. Lecture & zyBook are a little disjointed. Midterm & final are hard but she offers a lot of extra study material. Her lectures got better through the quarter. Just talk to her & connect, she's honestly really nice.

terrible professor. i should've looked at the rmp reviews before taking it but i was dumb and now im likely going to get a C in her class due to lack of foresight. her lectures are boring, long, and unhelpful. on the midterm, when she asked if any of us ran out of time, almost the entire class raised their hands. she also didn't curve. don't take.

I know it's already hard to teach computer science effectively as a subject, but it's just apparent that she's not particularly qualified for teaching or teaching CS for that matter. Her TA's and ULA's are probably more qualified to teach than her tbh.

Tests are so difficult

Taking CS16 with this professor was frustrating. Her lectures were disorganized, full of typos, and hard to follow. Her exams were way too long, had errors, and felt impossible to finish. If you have another option, take it. This class felt like a setup for failure rather than a chance to learn.
