This class/lab was a joke. As long as you had all of the required sections in the reports, the content didn't seem to matter much. Just include all the right sections and throw a few plots in every report just for good measure.

Lectures pointless and very unhelpful. Never responds to emails and doesn't teach anything that has anything to do with the homework. Never goes over the homework. Big awful waste of time!

What you learn while taking the class is cool (using Pro/E)...the class itself is not hard at all. But, as for Raquet, he is too wrapped up in some tool company he is trying to design stuff for to bother with his teaching duties. He never responds to e-mails and his door is always shut during his office hours, only because he sleeps during them

Awful professor. Never responds to emails, offers a half hour of office hours right before class. cannot understand anything he writes on the board. If you ask a ? he gives you one of those arrogant smirks and barely answers your ? gives 1 easy ex. and explanation in class then assigns hard homework that is nothing like what he went over. he suxs

This is the worst professor I have ever came across in my 3 years at UNCC. you'll never learn anything from him,he spends the whole time solving just 1 problem. You are expected to teach yourself in such a HARD class. just KILL to sign up with someone else, like Sharpe. And oh, he failed 3/4, no curve at all,he wouldnt mind failing the whole class

Rarely responds to e-mail. Absolutely no extra credit. No curve, no sympathy. Arrogant. Expect difficult tests and homework problems. Quizzes are extremely easy compared to tests and homework but count very little. Class could have been made much clearer given better examples and explanation.

Wanted students to learn, just gets a little disorganized getting his points across. Tests, homework, quizzes were easy, gives entirely too short of time on quizzes though. Final was also ramped up compared to the tests/homework/quizzes.

Never returned a single email. Wasn't really a good teacher (more of a show-er). Somewhat helpful in labs, but spends most of the time talking about stuff that has nothing to do with what's going on.

The course is easy! Waaay easier than ENGR 1201! HW are 60% of the course, so never think of missing a single one. Don't try to email him, because he won't respond at all! If you need anything, see him in his office! Though, he is a very knowledgeable professor.

The lecture is pointless, do the homework assignment, go to the lab. The class is easy, professor is horrible with posting assignments

If you need clarification or help outside of class, forget it. Dr. Raquet will not answer your emails, office phone calls, or anything else. No office hours posted in syllabus, no email posted in syllabus, absolutely no contact information whatsoever. If you find this info, do not expect a response if you try to contact him.

Dr. Raquet is not the most helpful teacher. He does not stay up to date with grades on moodle. He waited to the last week to put the majority of grades up so I had no idea what my average was until finals. I guarantee he won't respond to emails. You'll learn a lot when it comes to CAD. Dr. Raquet is a nice guy and descent teacher

If there were 9 things in my life I could cut out completely taking this class would be one of them. I took this as a summer class. He doesn't slow to explain anything. I made many zeros unrightfully that I've had to fight to be changed the whole course. He never answers important emails or any to that extent. Don't expect grades on time.

If you don't fall asleep during class then I applaud you, because the classes are long, boring, and pointless. You have to go though because he keeps attendance, and you have to turn homework in. He rambles on a lot about irrelevant stuff. He teaches a crap ton of students, so it can be hard to reach him for help, but if you do he will help you

Decent teacher, but doesn't explain assignments nor does he grade them. You won't know if you're doing the work right until its too late

Takes forever to get grades back to you and when they finally come back, you have no idea how they calculated it, even with the comments that are left

He started out to be an okay professor. However, he just goes at his own pace and expects everyone to be on the same page. Too much homework, and doesn't even make comments on what you could do to improve when doing assignments. His style of teaching really turns me off. It should be an easy class but he puts extra stuff for you to do.

It takes him months to get grades in and then he doesnt leave any feedback for you to see what you got wrong. His lab is also very fast paced and if you miss one of his steps, youll be lost for the rest of the class.

If you don't know what you're doing after the lab, good luck. Your best bet is to talk to the TA's because he is absolutely terrible at responding to emails. In regards to assignments, you won't get a grade back for a couple weeks at best and if you mess something up you won't know what it is you did wrong.

His grading policy is borderline unprofessional. It takes 2-3 weeks to receive grade back but with NO FEEDBACK. He has close to 0 communication with the class and takes days to respond to important emails. This class could very well be taken without a professor since all he says is to read and do the LMS lessons that take 3-4 hours to go through.

Professor Raquet is an okay professor. Assigns a lot of work and will not accept the HW drawings even if it is 1 minute late (have to hand it in). He was mediocre at best. Most of the instruction of how to use creo I learned from friends and classmates. During class, he would FLY by how to do something and wouldn't slow down for anyone.

Dr. Raquet is an okay professor. He doesn't give feedback on assignments other than the drawing assignments. Homeworks are basically how well you can copy his diagram/engineering drawing. If it isn't exactly his then you get lots of points taken off. He responds to email within a decent time but isn't professional with them.

Gives zero feedback when it comes to assignments. He entered lots of zeros for assignments that should be gotten at least 80s. Grading is RNG.

Professor Raquet as a person is a nice guy. However, I have never been so stressed out about a class. I got a 32 on an assignment with absolutely NO FEEDBACK (and all assignments had no feedback). So much homework and none of it is graded in a timely manner. I enjoyed the class content but if I could, I would AVOID this class at all costs.

Everyone else's reviews pretty much sum my experience. GO NINERS!

I learned a lot in ENGR 1202, however, most of that knowledge was gained from online resources given to us, NOT Dr. Raquet's teaching. 3-4 large assignments are given per week, which is manageable if you use your time wisely, however, the graders could not keep up with this work. Grading is very harsh, and the criteria are not clearly explained.

Dr. Raquet is smart and I learned a lot in 1202, but it mostly was because of the TA's. The lectures were hard to learn from. There was a good amount of homework but it was manageable. Because of so much homework, the graders had difficulty keeping up.

Professor Raquet was a nice professor and was knowledgeable. However, he did not really have clear grading criteria, I learned more from online resources and TAs than I did from him specifically. He gave a TON of HW and would make it all due on Thursdays. I learned a lot, I just don't think his lectures are the right way of teaching even with lab.

I didn't start seeing grades until the last week of classes because there's only a few TAs and a crazy amount of assignments. He also creates assignments that randomly involve html coding (to make a website) and essays ...for a CAD class. If you know about CAD beforehand, you'll do fine. If not, prepare to spend your entire day in a mosaic lab

easiest class of my life, even with no CAD background the hw only takes aroun one-two hours a week if you go to TA office hours. GO TO TA OFFICE HOURS! It makes life 10x easier. Professor is an interesting character, but if you do bare minimal you can easily get an A.

Lectures were posted on Canvas for extra help if you need to look back on a topic. He takes points off for the smallest things for 3d modeling on creo, so attention to detail really matters. Knowledge of HTML and CAD helps for the final (group) project. Hope you get a good group and you'll be fine.

Dr Raquet himself seems like a nice dude but he instructs his TA's to grade very harshly and with no mercy for the most part. This class should not be a 2 credit hour class. The rubric/grading criteria is super unclear AND stuff gets graded super late so you have no Idea if you've been doing the work right. Still should be a pretty easy B I'd say.
