I am so happy this course is over. It has my nightmare. I don't speak too much English and he was too tough on me.

I hated this class. Prof. Saad was extremely rude with his feedback and it took over a week for him to answer at times. His exams are very difficult and the project even worse. The material could be said to be interesting but it is utterly useless for our professional lives. I regret taking this class and would never recommend it.

In the first week of the class made us buy his books, told us he is always right, bragged about how important he is and talked about his distaste of gendered pronouns and social justice warriors. Security waits outside in case he is attacked by someone, and we are are locked in the classroom for his safety. Dropped the class after that.

The course is one of the easier ones I've taken, definitely a GPA booster, and I didn't really learn much. The professor was corrected multiple times during the lecture and didn't care much about teaching.

Poor preparation

He is neither as interesting, nor knowledgeable as he acts and the material he presents is from a different century. The class should be called "criticized issues" not "Critical". I don't even know what I will do with this stuff in the business world. He is funny, but not in the way he thinks he is. If you agree with him, you will do well.

This is supposed to be a business course not a philosophy course. The content is easy, but you won't learn much.

He has no idea what he's teaching.

Avoid at all costs! Prof Saad doesn't understand what he is teaching. One thing is for sure, it's a nonsensical marketing course. The material is not useful in the business world at all. He is also outdated and, god forbid, you disagree with him on his bogus science. Take another course, any course in fact will be more useful.

Waste of my tuition money for information that should be on a podcast, not an MBA course. Deliverables were useless and more useful if we were in a PhD in evolutionary science. Bad with feedback and is more interested in how much you agree with him than what you learn for your career. Avoid

I didn't know who this person was until taking their course; big mistake. Sure he has a phd, but he's a glorified Twitter troll. Nothing more, nothing less. Gad tries to make a name for himself in alt-right spaces, and not even they respect what he has to say. If I could turn back time, I would have dropped his course.

Worst teacher in Canada

He was incredibly annoying. I don't have any particular feelings about politics nor do I care I just come to class so I can learn not hear how well his book sold or his opiniona on transgenders. A waste of time please either teach or leave the politics to twitter from what I see here

Social media has ruined this man over time, and he has become such an unpleasant professor to be around. He presents himself as rational truth teller surrounded by woke academics, he is really just pushy and arrogant and suspects people to roll over and listen to him be this way, otherwise they are just denying evolutionary biology and are "woke".

Too much time yapping mindlessly on Twitter not enough time revising lecture material

Literally the worst

bad bad bad

I took his course almost 5 years ago now. Back then I found him to have opinions that I didn't fully agree with, but I didn't care. His lectures were average - most of his jokes landed poorly, and he likes to brag a lot about himself and his book sales. Seemed he never prepared for his lectures and sometimes cancelled lectures. Avoid at all costs.

very outdated lecture material. the lectures were more focused on side commentary than the actual course material. I often did not have a clear sense of what was expected for exams and projects.

I found this course very discouraging. It offered minimal learning value, and the consensus among my classmates was that the readings and assignments added little benefit for marketing students.

Course material hasn't been updated in a long time. Choose a different class.

I took this course hoping to get something out of it. But the class was really disappointing. The professor made no effort to seriously teach anything, and most lectures became episodes where the professor was making fun of leftists, or bragging about his book sales. I eventually dropped the class as it was a total waste on time and money.

Lectures are outdated and professor spends too much time discussing material that is not relevant to the course. Total waste of time. The professor needs to update the lecture material and needs to care about the welfare of the students.

Got nothing out of the class. Professor needs to update the course material. Not relevant to find jobs in today's market. Avoid completely.

This class is a total waste of time & money. Professor doesn't come prepared to class, has not updated the course material in two decades, and simply talks about random things not at all related to the course. Avoid this class.

Absolutely useless class that has not been updated in decades. Professor takes no effort to teach and spends class time on talking about tangential topics. Please avoid this class and save your money.

at points he could be quite mean and pointed towards people he didn't seem to agree with on certain topics. a bit of a tense environment

The lectures are old and outdated. Classes are more like sermons than a space for intellectual debate. Avoid this class and save your money. You gain zero employable skills from this class.

Total waste of time for anyone looking to upskill themselves in this difficult environment. Spend your money elsewhere.

The course material is outdated and professor cares more about his book sales than making sure that the students pick up some employable skills. Avoid this class.

Scaringly unable to concentrate on his own lecture; endlessly complaining about leftists and wokists and all people who disagree with his ideas.

I stopped going to the lectures after the first month. The professor doesn't come prepared to his lectures and seems to just "wing it". The class material is outdated and professor should care more about his students learning something than complaning about leftists and feminists that he disagrees with.

Course Material outdated and lectures are so long and off-topic. Would not take again.

I never understood why more than half of the lecture time was spent discussing tangential topics like politics, and not related to marketing at all. Class is a waste of time and money. I didn't learn anything, and I can say this as I diligently attended every single lecture.

I did well in the class, and the professor bashed liberals which was quite refreshing. But I paid for the class to learn actual employable skills, which I didn't receive. The professor didn't care whether students learned something actually useful.

I replied that I wont attend his class again only because he doesnt actually teach anything related to the course curriculum. The professor is quite entertaining otherwise and will not mind listening to him speak outside of the classroom.

The class strength dropped by almost 75% after the first week as it became clear that the professor was not willing to teach us any real course material. He was simply wasting time in class talking about random topics. I dropped out of the course after 3 weeks, as his lack of respect for students time became unbearable for me.

This is one of the worst classes I took in terms of the course content. Because the professor spent most of the time in the lecture discussing totally random stuff, unrelated to the course material. I wish I had dropped this class entirely. By the time I realized I should drop the class, it was too late, and so I somehow finsihed it.

As pointed out by other commenters, this professor's material is totally outdated. Professor doesn't actually do any teaching.

Professor does not actually teach the course material in his lectures. Most of the time is spent in tangential topics. Nobody should spend money on this class. It is both a waste of time and money.

Easily the worst class that I have taken in my life. Professor is in the wrong profession. He does not want to teach the students anything relevant to the course material during the lectures, and I have serious doubt if he is even qualified to do so. This class should be avoided at all costs. Total waste of time and money.

All the comments saying Gad Saad doesn't actually make any effort in teaching the course material during the lecture hours is 100% correct. I took this class and felt it was a total waste of time and money. He needs to retire as a professor and do whatever else he actually likes doing (it is not teaching).

I learned so much about why wokes and transgenders are enemy of the western civilization

All the professor do in class is complain about feminists and woke and liberals. Like c'mon at least teach some of the course material please!! What a waste.
