don't cheat in this class.....don't even make it look like you're cheating.....even if you aren't at all....she's strict when it comes to quality of work and whether or not you did it yourself

The nicest and clearest teacher I have ever had. I would not have gotten through Statics without her.

She's the best there is in this field. She explains well, makes sure you understand the material. Also, it's better to take her for the course in the night time alone, than with Golub in the lecture.

She is very good at explaining problems. She rarely used power point. She does plenty of examples by hand on the projector or on the board. If you have a B+ or A going into the final, you don't have to take it. She does have an attitude though.

she's cute... very organized. good teacher.

One of the bes teachers I have had.

Great teacher, her mood decides how cool she is on any given day

Tough Teacher but very clear and very helpful. very organized, communicates well and her hardwriting is great. She's good

great professor but forces you to buy a cd she makes herself for $50 which she made copies of at a cost of 40 cents a piece to her.

Very good, thorough and doesn't care about attendance in the night class; However, policy of class is exemption from final with a B and above average, but she is objective with this rule and makes even those with a B+ average take it

she is a TEACHER!!! She knows the material like the back of her hand. Exams are based on the homework. Very organized. I would like to have a teacher like her for every class.

She is a ok teacher. But can be rude if she wants to. Exams are not hard.

Shes a very good teacher.Exam problems were just like h.w problems. Shes ok on grading and exams fluctuate here and there. What she thinks is easy might be hard to you . If you take her night class , watchout she tends to drowse off at the end ...

She's very good. If you read the material and come to her class, you will understand most of the stuffs. Good grader though.

Not only I took her for this class, I also took her for MECH 237. One of the best Professors I've ever had teaching. You will actually learn in this class. God Bless.

She knows the material very well and makes you understand it if you pay attention.

very helpful professor. if you are willing to learn throughout college and not just pass by with easy grades, you will be fine with this professor. strict at times, but one of best i have seen. personal favorite of mine.

Good professor. Very helpful and really clear in how she explains things.Dont know if it was the class or her but there was ALOT of work! i would say still take her though

Awesome professor. Exams are not that bad. Learn alot of stuffs from her. Definitely take her if you get the chance.

Milano genuinely enjoys helping students. She's the first professor I've had so far that actually cares how well her class is doing on their exams.

Good explainer....extremely helpful with new concepts....do the homeowork and you should be fine....one of the best teacher....highly recommended!!!

She expects alot but is a really good teacher, just make sure she likes you.

She knows her stuff, and she'll give it to you straight. She doesn't take excuses and slackness. If you show her that you're trying and you're working hard, she'll go out of her way to help you. She's a great professor.

Knows her stuff genrally nice and helpfull but has herdays if u know what i mean

if you just want someone who will go easy on you and give you good grades, i'd suggest going to another school, like county college or something. if you want to LEARN more in one class than from any other teacher at this campus, take Milano. Do the assig

Great Examples, Do you HW and study(unlike most) and you will do fine. If you don't get A's in her class it is your own Fault. I would take her again if she taught anything else.

Very clear in her explainations. Her notes are very neat so its easy understand. A really good professor for the class. Ended up with an A purely because she's a great professor

she is a good prof. tons of available stuff on webct to study from but sometimes it feels like she wants people to do poorly. no sympathy and can be uptight but at least she knows what shes talking about.

This class is HARD HARD HARD! However, she gives you alot of stuff to help you study from. Like someone already said, she doesn't seem to have any sympathy at all for anyone and it does look as if she wants you to fail. Good teacher, but horrible human being.

She's really good at explaining things and helping you individually. She also kinda gives you that much-needed kick in the pants to do your work and improve. However, she's borderline cruel and sadistic when it comes to her attitude and her personality surely need alot of tweaking. Self-proclaimed "hard-a$$".

She is a total HARD ASS and has no problem getting on your case if you are doing poorly. She knows exactly what she is talking about definatly take her if you are looking to learn something but if you are an idiot dont take her

She gives out lots examples. if you study all the examples you can do alrite. You have to do things her way or you pretty much fail. If you ask for help she will help you but you have to make sure you email her before class or she wont help you at all. But other than that shes not too bad you just have to get used to her.

Shes not mean shes just very professional. Explains things very very well, and hand writing is amazing. Will help you with anything if you e-mail her. Gets a bum rap from lazy students. do the hw her way, u will learn/do well. And she isn't that strict on attendance. Best thing is she lays out a step by step process on how to do every kind of prob

awesome professor,she is gonna teach this in spring 10,im taking this class so take it with me too...it is going to be a wonderful class.

Don't think you're going to just skate by in her class. She's going to make sure you know your stuff and has no problem roasting the class if their doing anything poorly. It's her way or the highway but you learn to just tolerate her. Gives many many examples so you're more than well prepared.

She's great. If you take the class seriously, you WILL be prepared. If you want to get A's on the exams, DO THE EXAMPLE PROBLEMS and old exam problems she gives out and make sure you understand them. And make sure you honestly do the hwk. Copying will get you nowhere especially when hwk isn't worth that big of a percentage in your grade. PRACTICE!

I have taken statics once prior to her class. After taking it with her, I felt like I can write a statics textbook. Milano is the best statics professor I ever had. Her explanation of problems is so well thought out. If you do the homework and follow her examples, you will get an A. She also has great tutors to help in case you are stuck on the hw.

She teachers very well and explains pretty much everything. Got a 100 on all three of her exams and was exempt from her final

she gives a lot of work but if you do it, you will know the tests upside-down and backward. she is very no-nonsense. be polite, be formal, and she'll give you all the help you could ever ask for.

She is one of the hardest professors I have taken but at the same time one of the best. Her lectures are informative, clear, and done at a good pace. She takes the hardest subjects and breaks them down really well. Yes, she is tough. But she gives you everything you need to pass this course. Great Professor. Her handouts are the best!

She is a great teacher! but she has an attitude. She is clear and explains everything you need to know in a great way but she is very strict. Overall her attitude and strictness doesn't matter considering she teaches very well.

She's a great teacher, a little too real sometimes though. Just pay attention, take notes, read the book and you're fine. Exams are based on problems already done so just know the material well and the exams are doable.

She is tough because she wants you to learn the material, If you treat her good, she will treat you better. I you want to really LEARN the material you should take her. A lot of work tho. Exams are based on hw and exercises done in class.

Really wants to learn and understand the material not just copy the solutions from a manual. Really cares about her students. She gives a lot of examples and enough work for the final. Can be mean times but really nice when you talk to her personally. If you pay attention in class and do the homework, then you'll get an A easily.

Professor Milano is a very good professor who is able to clearly explain each and every example. She does many in class. Although she can be sassy and intimidating, she is helpful when you need help and is not a devil as portrayed some earlier reviews. She is a tough grader but will be forgiving if you know what you are doing.

Prof. Milano is undoubtedly one of the best professors at NJIT. She's respected, knowledgeable and concise. Her lectures are detailed and teaches you how to think and approach the problem. She prepares you for exams and also demands that you become proficient, she doesn't expect foolishness. Make sure you approach her and let her now who you are.

Professor Milano is an excellent professor who explains the concepts very well. She is very thorough and has a lot of examples on her website. She's nice sometimes and can be quite a character at certain points during the class. I suggest to read the book and do extra problems for the exams.

Explains concepts very well. Stays in office hours longer than usual if needed. Does what she can to help students understand.

Had no issues with her as a professor. Weekly quizzes can seem stressful but really allow you to focus on studying for one topic. They were never that hard after the first 2-3 weeks. Arguably goes too in depth with the lectures but you get everything you need to know. The labs can be a pain but our TA dropped the lowest grade.

Best and brilliant professor. NJIT couldn't have a better prof then her. Care so much for students to be a better engineer, dont mistake her toughness for her rudeness. DO Homework by yourself and dont use chegg, trust me it helps a lot. pay attention in class and study for quiz (quiz every week, worth 50% of total grade). Every quiz is important.

Milano gets a bad rep because students don't prepare for exams, so they do bad. However, she really is one of the best professors at NJIT because she teaches students everything they need in order to succeed on not only for ME 234 but for ME237 and the FE exam. Just don't don't skip class and put in the extra effort on truly understanding the HW!

Milano is the most savage professor I have had. In class she poses this tough exterior but one on one she is very approachable. Her tests are a combination of homework and work sheet problems. PRINT EVERYTHING ON CANVAS. Sometimes she doesn't collect homework, but if you don't do it (honestly) you will miss out on a lot of practice. Savage 10/10

While she is very strict she is the only mech professor Ive had who knows how to teach the material and will help you after class with any questions. Doesnt care about the final answer as long as your procedures and theory are correct.

Honestly one of my favorite profs so far at NJIT and one of the only ones who really is able to clearly communicate the content and make it easily understandable. Dont know why people complain and would love to see how they do in other classes because this is easy compared to most. Yeah she can be sarcastic but it makes things interesting.

I failed first time I took it, but it was my fault that I didnt work hard, to pass her class you need to work hard and do lots of problems. Her exam are so hard, she loves to trick you with geometry and her grading is so strict, in final exam if you forget - sign then 8-10 pts off. Her teaching is organized than other Njit professor in mech dept.

Pros: She knows how to teach the material in a clear and concise matter. If you sit down, pay attention, do all the HW, and actually study twice a week that should be enough. Her Quizzes are very similar to the HW, her exams are not difficult. Cons: She sucks are replying to emails, online experience make the lab portion of this class horrible

do your work and you'll pass. old resources are definitely a help. she tends to be a little unapproachable if you ask "dumb" questions but who cares if you have to hear it from her. shes been a prof at this school longer then you were alive so shes been employed this long for a reason

The most real professor you will ever have at NJIT. She will give it to you straight. I had to retake her course twice but I learned my lesson. Overall very knowledgeable and has been teaching here for many years.

she just has a bad rap because she will call people out in class for being on their phone etc. or call people out for not studying the material. But when it comes to teaching I have to say she is super good at explaining problems, only in person tho online it is a lot harder to understand the problems that she goes thru that are pre-completed

I know many students dislike her for her attitude but her job is to teach. She does that very well. She is not easy but you will learn and understand the material which will make you better in future classes. If you slack off she will treat you as such. Took her for 234 and 237. Uses problems from textbook with worked out neat solutions.

All the reviews are right, she is extremely rude. However, she teaches very well and tells you what will be on the exam so you know what yo study.

She is very rude but she teaches very very well. If you just pay attention you will do well as its just a continuation from PHYS 121.

Professor Milano makes sure that the class is doing well. If you do the homework on time and listen during class, you'll be fine. Make sure to complete the practice problems on the syllabus, you'll thank yourself later. She can be a tough grader, but it's all to help you improve. Be sure to pay attention during lectures, or she will call you out.

Despite her tough demeanor, she's guiding you for future classes. Review her lectures & canvas notes, uncollected hw problems, and textbook exercises. Choose a competent lab group to avoid unproductive peers, as the reports can be long and tedious. The initial 2 lab reports are rigorously graded by her, as she has specific report expectations.

Let me tell you something, when I took her class it was extremely hard. Now I am not a type of student who gets straight As but just barely pass by. Taking her class changed the way I thought and changed the way I studied. I graduated with an extremely good job. Just sharing this with all the people who hate her. She does it you for your own good!

Prof. Milano is very knowledgeable of the material, but at times she can come off as snarky if you ask her a seemingly obvious question. However, she is very clear about the assignments and gives opportunities for extra credit. She also provides detailed notes for example problems. The lab is alright, not too difficult.

Milano is the best professor I have taken at njit. She tells you exactly what's going to be on the exam and if you have questions she will go out of her way to answer them. Just email her don't be scared. She comes off as a little brutal but she just wants you to learn the easiest way to do things.

Great professor, I feel like she made the material very clear and was a great help when I had questions. A little blunt, but she truly wants you to learn and you can tell she wants to help everyone pass.

she is very smooth and knowledgeable of the material. she is very clear about the assignments, and quizzes/exams are not challenging at all and gives opportunities for extra credit. She also provides detailed notes for example problem which helps so much with studying.

For MECH234 she is by far the best choice, the only other choice is prof Saadeghvaziri , he is the worst prof at NJIT. she is very very rude, however she is very good at explaining the content. make sure to study all the hw problems, the examples she does in class, and some of the recitation problems she posts online when preparing for exams.

She's a great professor who is sarcastic and might make you feel dumb for asking certain questions. You understand the material she teaches and she gives good practice problems for the exam. Just don't forget to read the syllabus...

Milano is unique. She is a tough grader but wants you to succeed. Keep in mind that if your lab partner plagiarizes, she will send all members to the Dean. She's strict but outside of class, she is very caring and easy to talk to. She has good ref material on canvas. She is a very high quality professor, but you will be challenged

She isn't that bad, you can kind of see the sarcasm but she's pretty chill for the most part. Exams are pretty light just make sure you do her recitation problems and HW problems. Her grading in exams is very good she writes/scribbles what you did wrong she gives a ton of partial points make sure you guys round during exams. I think she's great.
