AVOID! If there is ever another teacher for this course, take them. Lectures are straight from powerpoint and do not follow with book one bit, you will learn them better w/o her. Very unwilling to help out students. Very selfish. She was way behind schedule and just crammed the last half of the class into 2 weeks before the final. NOT RECOMMENDED!

Excessively harsh in grading. Always acts annoyed when answering questions. Makes anyone who asks anything feel like crap. Changes policies at will and asks the hardest possible questions over uncovered material. Quizzes every 2 weeks. I got three 50s a 60 an 80 and a 4 (yes a four) and a 49 on the final and passed with a C so she REALLY curves.

WORST TEACHER EVER. You can't understand a thing she says. She reads off powerpoints riddled with mistakes. She provides homework solutions because there's no answers in the book, and her solutions have mistakes in them. We ended up wasting hours trying to find our mistakes when SHE was the one that made them. Tests are hard. 40% final. DON'T DO IT

Her accent/English grammar are absurdly bad, nearly incomprehensible. Reads pwr pts. Ask a question, you'll get a smart remark like you're an idiot. If you go to her office hours SHE IS VERY RUDE and rushes you out even if no one else is waiting. Book is poorly written, no answers, no soln manual. Posts her own HW solns with many errors. dont do it

she gives me my first B in my academic career (I am junior now); even though I spend most of my time study for her class. YOU JUST CANNOT EXPECT WHAT CHAPTER IS COVERED ON THE EXAMS. She teaches you 1+1 =2 but she will ask 12*13+1213*9=??? on the exam. AVOID HER! SAVE THAT CLASS FOR NEXT SEMESTER IF HER CLASS IS THE ONLY ONE!

It's not that the material is that hard, its just there is not enough time to prepare for the exams. Here is the problem, when you have to learn material that fast just to get a good grade on a test, there is no way you can retain what you learned; Final coming up, and i know nothing. My advice, do not take this class unless you absolutely have to

One of the worse professors at UCF. Strictly rely on SARC or other services if you wish to help yourself in the class. She is nearly illiterate, and everything she says isn't worth listening too. Recommend skipping classes to get tutored. She should be charged with fraud for coming to this school; and whatever degree she has is obviously fake too.

Professor: F. 'Nuff said. Just get a tutor or something; and UCF also has free review sessions. Material seems really easy (it is) but there is no way you will get what you need in class the definently pass. Remember ==> Professor: F

There are only a few people I don't like and try to avoid...this professor is one of them. Take this class at valencia or something. I promise you, ANYONE eles would be better. Maybe lecture to a mirror, because even if you had no idea what you're saying... it would still be better. I cant even think of one good thing to say... EPIC FAIL

She has a policy of not answering emails. In a class of 300 people you have no hope whatsoever of justice in grading. There is no SI for this class, only peer tutoring. The class should be otherwise the easiest to me and it's the hardest.

Took her for Electrical Networks. Would not recommend. Lacks communication skills in english. Only reads slides and rarely works out an example by hand. Try to switch to another prof. if you can she is one of the worst in the the EE/CPE program at UCF.

Worst professor I've had at UCF by far. This is the first class I didn't pass here, all because she makes it seem like the material is easy, and then hits you with questions on the test that she made just to confuse you. HW is no help, quizzes are hit or miss with difficulty. Terrible class all around.

The class is very challenging and it doesn't help that I found it extremely boring. I found myself trying to stay awake in all of her lectures. she has quizes every week that are really tough to pass and are worth 20% . She then has 3 exams each worth 20% and no mandatory hw.

She is very boring to listen to in her lecture. Her examples have mistakes and sometimes no one notices them, and when they do she won't even correct it. Her homework is exactly the same as her examples. Quizzes 20% are simple. Tests however are on steroids. Good luck, they are problems you've never seen or have enough time to finish.

By far the worst (and most difficult) class I have taken in my college career. The lectures are not helpful whatsoever and her tests are ridiculously difficult -- mostly due to the discrepancy between what she teaches and what type of problems actually show up on the quizzes/tests. Apparently curves the class... crossing fingers that I passed.

Unless you're majoring in EE, you will hate this class. If the material doesn't click with you, look for outside help ASAP since she offers very few resources for studying. Homework is hit or miss on preparing you for the weekly quizzes. Tests are mostly tricks and things you've never seen. I learned almost nothing from this course, sadly.

poor lectures. exams questions were unlike HW or lecture problems.

I just want to make a point, unless you like being treated rudely and being belittled. Do not take this professor. She will marginalize any interest you have in the subject. So Rude. Cannot ask questions without feeling discouraged. She literally does not care about any of her students or the effort they put in to learn.

Easy course but she makes it almost impossible to pass. Required course, but UCF offers few choices, and you're lucky to get in. Lecture slides skip steps and are full of mistakes which make them confusing. Weekly quizzes are do-able but the 3 exams and final are hard, don't reflect the slides or quizzes, and are full of trick questions.

Her lecture notes don't do much to teach you as they skip steps and have many errors. Tests are worth about 80% of your grade. The other 20% is quizzes. Tests are way harder than homework and quizzes. She does a big square root curve, but only if you don't ask about it! I got an F on the all 3 tests and did decent on quizzes and ended with a C.

This was the worst experience I have had in college with a prof. Extremely thick accent, couldn't pronounce 'voltage' correctly and other terms which made the lectures extremely difficult. Not available to students and the TAs did not have office hours and weren't available for students. Asked for help, was told to just study more. Tests are rough.

Very little room for error. 80% is test and exams and 20% is difficult in class quizes. She has no option but to curve due to bad class averages. You would think she would improve her teaching methods and course structure. But I guess for her it's like if its broke why fix it.

It's not a hard class subject but average class is falling. You're probably asking, how? Tests are way harder than quizzes and hws and she makes sure to put tricky questions on it. I honestly put in so much time and effort when taking this class and no grades to show for it. This is coming from a A engineer student.

You know something is wrong when the average class grade is "F". Do whatever you can to avoid this instructor - she flunks nearly everyone. Trouble is, UCF, has too few instructors, and you may be stuck in this class thinking its required and you have no choice. FORGET IT. You probably won't pass and would have been better off not registering

Do not take her. Class average is an F, literally do not know how she has not been fired. You think everything is fine until you take the first test and then all of these reviews start to make sense.

Youll start the semester with the thought, she seems really nice and caring and youll end it tired of her presenting unfair and unnecessarily tricky exams. I did well in this course after hours and hours of studying, which proves it is passable but it is definitely possible to understand all course topics well and fail the exam which is unfair

Don't take her class. This class was a terrible experience. I failed every test, badly, and got a C with the curve but that's not a reason to take her class- if you have the opportunity to take any other professor, even if it means waiting a semester, do it. Fahim will crush your soul, and your GPA.

On the first day of class after reading these reviews you'll start doubting the credibility of these reviews, because she really does seem to have her class in order and planned out nicely, it seems like you're covering ground because you're doing good on the quizzes. Later you'll take the test and you'll realize just how mistaken you were. 0/10

I did not believe these reviews because Fahim seemed great during her lectures. I even got a 10/10 on the first quiz and thought the class was an easy A. But, the class is 80% tests. And her tests are way harder than the optional homework she gives and go beyond our quizzes that made you think you were ready(failed 2/3 tests). Wouldnt take again!

my eyes were drowsy anytime she spoke. lecture is boring, weekly quiz which was extremely hard was from the previous class and homework. you can review and do all homework within 2 days? i couldn't. doing bad on test was fatal because it was 20% for each but heavy and hard.

Quizzes every week and they are very hard, 3 exams in this course which it even harder than the quizzes. The professor assistants correct the exam and quizzes, some time they give me a good grade even though i didn't do good and some time they give you just 1 point out of 10 just because of small mistake you made. I really don't recommend her.

I took her a few semesters ago, and im just here to make sure that you know that shes the WORST professor I have even taken ... BY FAR.

Avoid if possible!!

The quizzes in this class are easy as long as you study the homework. However, it is possible to fail this class even if you know the material. The whole class is just quizzes and tests. She gives partial credit but very little even if you only made a small mistake. Her exams and especially the final were brutal. Avoid this professor!

I understand the transition from face-to-face classes to online is difficult, but this class was dreadful. She teaches straight from a PowerPoint so it is very difficult to understand how problems are being solved. You're only graded by 4 exams. There are 7 quizzes that are only for extra credit. Avoid if possible.

Avoid this professor at all costs, test averages and quizzes are extremely low and she thinks we're the problem. lc isnt that hard material wise. its just that her weekly quizzes and exams are VERY hard. dont even bother studying homework or the textbook bc the exams look NOTHING like them. does absolutely nothing to help u and just belitles u

Very unresponsive to email and outdated to technology. Not a good lecturer overall. If you can take this class with another professor, do so.

Exam was 40% of overall grade. Test accounted for 80% of grade abs were a lot harder than the hws and class examples. She did not keep correct grades in webcourses. Did not even follow her own syllabus. No curve.

There are so little assignments that making a small mistake on one of them TANKS you grade. Good luck on trying to email her and get a response. She's practically impossible to reach online, and even in her office hours she's hard to talk with. Lectures don't line up with exams, neither do assignments. AVOID AT ALL COSTS

Horrible professor. Exams are 100 times harder than HW and practice problems. Impossible to talk to her. Has no understanding or respect for students.

Believe the reviews. She is as bad as they say

Tests are worth 80% of your grade, you make a mistake you lose most of the points, does not answer questions will just repeat what she said last, best way to pass is to teach yourself, too many slides posted have wrong answers, I passed because I studied for weeks to get an A on the final weighted 40%, No formula sheets, grading scale is the curve.

Professor Fahim seems like a nice person but she should not be teaching. Her lectures are long, and heavy, and she's not very good at explaining either. She is VERY tough with her grading, giving little partial credit. Get ready to teach yourself and study 20+ hours for exams. She no longer curves but uses a different grading scale. Avoid!!
