First of all 50% of the grades are the programs that he doesn't teach you enough to actually do them.

A great professor. I recommend this professor because his lectures are very well explained, he addresses any issues and I learnt a lot from his class. Participation and extra credits matter.

Only if you have prior programming experience do I suggest taking him, there are easier professors to obtain this credit. He explains topics expecting you to know. He is a good professor but struggles to make the material of an intro course beginner friendly.

If you don't have any coding experience: DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR! He is very nice and funny but explains topics expecting you to know and struggles to make the material beginner friendly. He has a monotone voice which makes the class a little boring. His assignments are very tedious and his tests are intense and time-limited.

I took COP 1047C with Professor Adnan and it was an amazing experience. Great teacher, very thorough. Willing to take time to answer questions, gives a lot of assignments but that is necessary to learn the material. I recommend him to everyone I know that is going to take any programming. Hard but fair. Would love to be lucky enough to take again

Prof. Zejnilovic is the best professor I've had at MDC. His lectures are straightforward, engaging, and cover everything thoroughly. Assignments are challenging enough that you'll learn the material well, but still perfectly doable. He gives lots of extra credit, great feedback, and is easily reachable outside of class.

I took professor Adnan for the first 6 weeks summer, he is a great professor, easy to reach via email, course material very well explained. he gives a lot extra credit, but it is not required. If you do your homeworks you will pass the exams. I definitely recommend taking Prof Adnan.

This is a beginner class for c++ and yet this professor has simply decided that everyone has tech background and has decided not to teach us the basics and then proceeded to get mad when the students collaborated and learned from each other. I genuinely needed to go on YouTube to succeed in class.

This professor is a tough grader and is not lenient. This was supposed to be an introductory class yet he treats it like you are supposed to be an expert. His test are time limited and stressful. No make-ups, not beginner friendly. If you do not keep up with him then you will drown. If you like being graded harshly and learn better then take him.

I have to say this professor is a tough grader but if you do the work following the guidelines its easy to get 100 on hw and projects. Test and quizzes are timed but aren't proctored so you can look things up in your notes. He praises good work but calls out cheaters. So if you study hard and don't use shared work you should be fine.

I took this through MDC Online so I never really interacted with him outside of emails. He had some issues with actually posting the assignments on time (and me and others emailing him to remind him) but he gave extra credit which helped boost my grade. Easy class but I wouldn't recommend to beginners because its a more "learn it yourself" class.

This was not a bad professor but he is a very tough grader. If one little mistake that does not go with his rubric he will take points off. This was a beginner class but was extremely non-beginner-friendly, to begin with. Many people did struggle and his quizzes and tests are pretty hard. Personally wouldn't take him again due to his strict rules.

This professor is up to date with the subject and wants you to learn it well. There were a lot queries to go through in the hwk. The exams are tough. But he offers extra credit. In the end I was able to achieve an A, and I love SQL. I would want him for all my classes. He answers within 24 hrs and grades on time in spite of having a large class

I was on my own with this class, I was able to complete this class at my own pace which I liked. I found his access and Excel exam very challenging and on top of that, they were timed. His assignments weren't weekly, he divided his whole class assignments into two, assigned the first portion, and gave us a couple of weeks to get it done.
