This is her first semester and people need to cut her some slack. I think she overestimated the ability of people and wanted to get to more interesting topics. Following all the whining she made everything dead easy. She's extremely competent on a whiteboard, and fun when engaging the class, but not especially engaging when just reading slides.

Dr. Mehra is an amazing professor. She make sure that every one in her class understand the material by going around and check each and every student one by one. Only two easy exams (Midterm and Final), and around 5-6 HW. I highly recommend Dr. Mehra.

This class is an easy A. Don't skip class, take good notes, and you should get A with no Problem. There are some pop quizzes, but there are based on the material. recommended.

Super easy. Take Dr. Mehra. You are going to learn a lot. It's an easy A.

Excellent professor and clarifies any questions about assignment and provide helpful example to clarify doubts. The assignment were interesting.

Dr. Mehra was always available to help with any question or problem. She is very interactive and helps you understand the material. If you are struggling with something just go to her office hours.

I learned a lot. Quizes and project was hard. Sometimes not easy to understand her lectures, need to read the book to learn the material, cannot just depend on the lectures. Curves at the end of the semester.

Although the class was a little rough at first, Mehra is still a new professor and is trying to shape her curriculum based on students she has each semester. She's really helpful if you visit her during office hours. Much of it was review, but I still learned a lot. Others will barely show up and not do well because they miss important information.

Best Professor for this subject. I learned alot. covers lots of topics with time and provides good depth in each topic.

Such a great professor I really like her teaching style , she asks students many times and explain until doubt is clarified She expects student to do homework on own but gives hints if someone is stuck at some point She lectures about 30 to 40 min and then let us practice for 15 mins so she can answer our questions

Take this class with a friend who doesn't mind hard work. There's a group project for 50% of your grade! Very interesting lectures, lots of good feedbacks. Tests aren't easy, but not killer. Project is LOTS of work.

She has gotten better as the semester has gone on. Very helpful and always available. For the project we had a discussion board on blackboard where she answered questions in just a few hours, which helped me get thru it. She explains things well now and clearly goes over the topics. I give her a jalapeno as well.

Jalapeno for sure. Lectures are good, not boring. Drops the lowest 3 homework assignments. Tests are multiple choice, kinda hard. Need to study from the online multiple choice test she links you to.

She's actually wonderful! Very helpful during office hours. Project is not too bad. Homework is okay. Exams are hard but practicing from multiple choice test bank is pretty helpful.

Still a pretty new professor, so the class is pretty unorganized. For example, she changed the criteria for the project on the day it was due. She's nice though, if you talk to her about giving you some leeway she'll most likely give it to you. Quizzes are awful, 10 minutes to solve 10 questions, way too short. Nothing special really.

This was the best class I had at UTD so far. Professor Mehra's explanations are very clear when you participate and ask questions. She's very helpful and her tests contain tricky questions. I went through many problems and group study to achieve good grades. Assignments were difficult but helped for test preparations.

She is a really nice professor. She is hard to understand sometime. Her tests are a little tricky if you don't pay attention to the question.

Such a great professor, Few things which I appreciate. Her teaching method, she asks students many times and tries best to explain until doubt is clarified. She expects student to do hw on own but gives hints if someone is stuck at some point. She always provides time for any doubts at office hours.

If you listen to lectures closely, you'll do pretty well in exams as well. If you do not attend classes, you'll probably need to remember the whole multiple choice problems of the book as the content of exam can be any of those. Need to start early on the assignments if you do not know the language as the assignments can be tough

She's been an amazing professor. Very clear on the topics and approach. Pay attention in class and you wouldn't have to put an extra effort for the exams. Very knowledgable and well experienced with the subject.

The course was fine. I wouldn't describe it as easy. There is work to be done however it was straightforward and clearly defined. Pay attention to the Syllabus. If one is willing to put in effort, they will do fine.

Good teacher overall. The lectures are boring, but very informative and helpful. She always discuss the subject definition then gives a couple examples.

she cool she cool

She may seem strict inside of class, but she's really nice when you go to her office for help. She is definitely accessible outside of class if you need assistance or if something is bothering you. Exams are open book and open notes.

Mehra is an excellent lecturer and often tells you famous interview questions. She has an accent but she is not difficult to understand in the slightest. She takes attendance and you're only allowed two free absences so I recommend saving those for when you're sick. I made the mistake of skipping class to sleep and had to come in sick twice.

Class lectures may be slightly boring but she truly cares if you go to her office hours. As a freshman I was scared of my professors but she's one of the ones that made me feel better. She also takes feedback well. A lot of the other people complaining here about attendance don't realize that she's enforcing UTD policy.

Professor Mehra cares deeply about her students. Although it can be hard to understand some topics in lectures, you can go to her office hours and she helps incredibly. She devotes so much time to her students and is always willing to provide help with homework and the project at the end of the year. Would definitely recommend!

Sounds genuinely interested in teaching which made lectures engaging. Weekly quizzes can be tough at first but once you understand the material they become easier. Programming section on the final exam was the hardest part of the course, but the extra credit on the final project makes up for part of it. Homework is doable if you don't procrastinate

Her class is super lecture heavy, if you don't pay attention you have to spend a lot of time learning things. If you miss things then you can definitely go to her office hours, she may seem very strict in class but is very helpful in her office hours. Another thing is that her class has very strict attendance policy so beware of that.

Very helpful professor, went to her office for advice not just on the class, but to talk about advice for computer science. She's very caring and wants you to pass. Her weekly quizzes aren't hard if you know how to study. The final exam coding question was a piece of cake. Final project was time consuming, but easy.

This is a pretty standard class. The project was pretty easy but helps you get a good grasp of object oriented programming. The exam was not that hard if you learn from the quizzes and learn from the coding assignments.

Professor Borazjany is one of the best for CS/CE classes. Her lectures are straight forward and the weekly assignments really help you learn the topics. She's also very responsive to her students and is always answering questions to make sure the entire class is on track. 10/10 overall

Professor Borazjany was a great professor in my CS 2336 class. Her class is very well structured and organized so there should not be many issues with that. However, I do wish she assigned more projects. Additionally, there is not one category in your grade that will make or break your grade, so you always have a chance to redeem yourself.

professor borazjany is a solid choice for data structures. Her lectures are pretty easy to understand, but they do follow mostly what is on her slides. There are a lot of assignments in this class everything from quizzes to activities to homework to uml diagrams to a project to tests. She does give extra credit though. Start all assignments early.

Professor Borazjany's lectures were ok, and the grading (at least for my grader) was pretty fair/easy. There is a lot of extra credit, and participation does matter (but it's not hard). Also, instead of a midterm there were quizzes. There is a lot of hw though, and a project, but the project wasn't too bad and was a good learning experience.

If you have taken AP CS classes in high school, you should be fine. Would recommend knowing basic Data structures (just know how they work not coding) The course itself is fast-paced personally, so if you know nothing about OOP, you probably have a lot to catch up quickly. She expects you to know basic programming stuff. great professor!

Professor Borazjany was a great professor. There were exercises, quizzes and homework assignments that included coding throughout the semester and a final. She did not just explain testing at an abstract level but had exercises and coding assignments that reinforced our understanding of the lectures. She wants everyone to succeed in her class.

Homework isnt bad except when very time consuming. Quizzes can be a pain bcs theyre usually 5 question 5-7 min. Extra pts for participation which is nice. The project was a bit tough ime but good learning experience. She also randomly calls people out during lecture to make sure youre paying attention. Would give 3.5 stars but round up 4 will do

Honestly a joke of a class in terms of difficulty. The tradeoff for how easy it is is that there is a ton of homework. 4-5 coding questions + quiz + coding activities per week usually. All are medium difficulty, nothing too hard though. Course project is ridiculously easy, it took me 3 days to complete. Easy A/A+, check UTDGrades for the proof!

It is more of a Software Engineering class. A lot of work needs to be put for the project. Possible to score well in this course, if you are able to do well in project. Project is mainly about the process involved in building it, rather than the project itself. Find good partners for the project. Not an easy A class.

Professor Borazjany is very nice and cares about her students. There are weekly course modules with assignments and one group project. There is also one final exam. Great professor and course!

Took her for first semester of emse. Good lectures. Good homeworks and projects. Alot of group work. Exams are good and they are from the material she teaches. Just participate in class, read lectures and do your homework you should be good. You actually learn in this class without stressing about grading.

Professor Mehra is an amazing professor. Her lectures are actually entertaining and don't put you to sleep. Her assignments are all fair and she gives plenty of time to do them. Waiting till the last minute will make them difficult. Also easily the kindest professor in the whole CS program. She is very understanding and easy to talk to

Good professor that actually will teach and is willing to answer all questions. The class did make me feel like i was back in hs because she would just call people out but it was lowkey funny. Just make sure you study because you need a 70% exam average to pass the class, might seem dumb but it makes sense because cs does needs filtering.

If u put effort you'll get an A. People dont care about this class so half of the class had to retake midterm. Midterm - hard. Finals - super ez. pick good teammates cuz they might putoff all work on u. everyone underestimated midterms and failed. not an ez A. grading not harsh.
