HARD HARD HARD do not recommend, hard to understand, says dumb things, tests are murder, not helpful what so ever

This teacher was horrible. He asks students to use correct grammar, and he didn't. This was an online class, and the only way to get in contact with him was through e-mail, and he responds a few days AFTER you need his help. The Excel assignment was WAY too much work which was not explained well. His communication is lacking and seems uncaring.

DONT DO IT! HE'S WHACK! too meticulous when grading discussions and case studies. 2nd yr at KSU, never made less than a B. My case studies & discussions were well written and exhibited evidence of original thought. he gave me a C for both. He does not clearly define what he's looking for and punishes u severly for not giving the answer he wants.

took him online bism 3100... 1. he took too long to grade assignments. 2. will drop you a whole letter grade on case studies and excel assignments for not giving the answer he wants, even if you have evidence to back up your point. 3. no xtra crdt/no makeup for anything. If you have a life outside of school, TRUST ME, DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS!!!!!

Dr. Ali is unclear in instructions. Has grading rubric and does not follow it. Won't work w/ you. Approved our idea for term project-then took 25 pts off-said didn't meet requirements.Report was correct per text-25 pts gone for "used enter key for page breaks.We met every specified criteria ,got a 75. DO NOT take class with this professor!

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS! This professor is so unclear about his expectations, doesnt understand the questions posted by students, and gives you assignments with hardly anything to go off of. HORRIBLE!

Dr. Ali is a nice person overall, but honestly, an awful professor. I still do not have any idea what I am making in the class because his grading system is so confusing. He takes a long time to post grades and an even longer time to email you back to dispute his unreasonably harsh grading. I do not recommend taking him.

First time I've ever had to drop a class. Just a bad professor all around unclear with the highest work load I've ever seen in a class. Has weekly quizzes, reading and a project about every other week (not exaggerating) not to mention the discussion assignments that i firmly believe he doesn't read a word of. 210 would not take

Hard to get him to reply to emails which is strange considering he teaches an online class you think that would be the one thing he would be good at. Which wouldn't be that bad but his directions for assignments are so ambiguous you'll have to email him for with questions at least once. Would not take again

This is by far the worst professor I've ever had, he never made anything clear, you have to pry information out of him just for him to give you the bare minimum, and he doesn't update you on when assignments are due so you have to keep checking for specific due dates. I would not recommend this class.

His assignments are easy to do, however he grades ridiculously. He'll mark off for random things that were NEVER said to be required on the papers. There are time consuming discussion posts every two weeks or so. This is a "100%" online class but he'll attempt to make you take your test IN CLASS. This class is more stressful than it needs to be.

Assignment documents flat out do not ask you for what he wants. He does not meaningfully explain what he wants when asked. Assignments are irrelevant to the course curriculum (more appropriate for accounting). The biggest irony is that for a course 50% devoted to "business communication" he doesn't even write proper sentences.

HE IS A HORRIBLE TEACHER I didn't learn anything from him. He would start going over each chapter and then we would start having pointless discussions. And we have quizzes on each chapter. As far as I know everyone uses quizlet for those quizzes to pass. He's unclear about the assignments and our grades suffer because of that. STAY AWAY

Currently taking him and I must say he's not a good teacher at all. He's a tough grader but doesn't go over any of the material or assignments. So you don't know what he wants from you until he grades your assignments. He responds to your email only when he feels like it. Overall, a really bad professor that shouldn't be teaching.

Very tough grader. The assignments themselves are not very complicated, but he looks for small details that he can count off for. Does not offer the full instructions, but requires you to ask questions in the discussion board to even get some of the things he is looking for in the assignment. Lacks heavily on his communication skills

ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE. You will regret taking him. Assignments are fairly easy but you will not get the grade you deserve. Even if you follow the rubric he finds stuff to count off for. You will never get an A on an assignment, it is like its against his morals. Dont even try to ask questions or express concerns about your grade, he doesnt care.

STEER CLEAR! He intentionally gives vague instructions for assignments so that students will ask questions, however, he rarely ever answers questions clearly. The worst part is that he'll then deducts points for "not following directions." Luckily I passed this course with an A, but tons of guesswork was involved.

I don't recommend taking his online. He preaches communication yet is below average at doing so, and considering the class is online I would say it's imperative to be as concise as possible. I spent more time trying to figure out instructions and grading criteria than I did actually trying to retain the material. Glad I'm through with this class.

Just avoid Radwan. He makes this class far more difficult than it should be, primarily regarding the group project. In grading that project, he is hypercritical and it will affect your final grade. Other than that, the class is not interesting whatsoever. Find a better professor for IS2200.

This is easily the worst class I have ever taken, strictly because of the professor. Throughout the entire semester, all assignment instructions have been vague, only to be met with harsh grading. Several students asked for clarification on assignments, his motto is "I provide vague instructions to see what you are capable of". DO NOT TAKE WITH HIM

Dr. Ali is the worst educator I have ever had the experience of dealing with. He's overly critical, vague in his instructions, and just plain rude to his students. I spent more time on this class than I did in all my other classes combined. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

The worst professor I've ever had. It genuinely upsets me that my education that I work hard and pay for is represented by people like him. He DOES NOT want to see you succeed, he provides little detail for each assignment, counts you off for pointless things and then won't tell you what you did wrong. Poor excuse of a teacher and just plain mean.

Worst professor I've had so far at Kennesaw. His instructions on assignments are vague on purpose, so you have to ask questions on the discussion board yourself. He deducts points on very pointless things and is really unresponsive when you ask what you could have improved on. AVOID IF YOU CAN

Horrible, do not take him unless you have to. He makes a general ed class so difficult to pass our class average was less than 75 on test. Hes not clear and treats this class like a masters course. Offers no extra credit and test are had. His quizzes that you should study from have the wrong answers and he has not fixed that.

HARD. he is so unclear. he is so mean when you try to talk to him and ask questions. he will literally go "try again". so much work for no reason. he just needs to explain assignments better. give more clear instructions. i guess actually teach.

I do not recommend him at all take anyone else if you can. His assignments directions in general are very unclear and his very vague if you ask him to explain the instructions on a college level not masters degree level. He does not offer extra credit or make up assignments. Also there is a group project heavily weighted. Good luck

hard grader and has projects that have that aren't related to the class. Do not take!!

I would not recommend this teacher. He would purposefully not give all the directions just so u could ask him. There are a few group projects and if your group members don't help he doesn't care. I was one one point away from a letter grade and he did not bump me. also if u miss one part of an assignment he will fail you and won't let u re due it

I had technical issues with the 100 question final resulting in not all my answers being saved so I got a 15. I have to appeal the grade in the course and the professor has failed to reply to me to fix the situation since I lasted emailed him on December 15, its january 8th today. The final group project is peer graded. Whos idiot idea was that

Do not touch this man with a 10ft pole. Absolutely the worst professor I have ever taken. Grades are unnecessarily harsh. He wastes class time so nothing ever gets done. Every other student in the class agrees, this is the worst option you can take. Rubrics are so vague and he then ends grading on things that weren't originally included. BEWARE

I do not believe this professor should be allowed to be a teacher. He was never specific on his rubrics because he just expected you to know what he wants, he counts off points for things you didn't say, and after my entire class went to him complaining that we all failed for something that wasnt on the rubric, he said we didnt deserve the points.

Professor Ali was a nightmare. Rudest professor ive encountered. Could never be pleased. Graded wrong multiple times (counting points off for things i never said). Belittled students. DONT TAKE HIM.

In this class there are two tests, the midterm and the final. I can say confidently that only 5-10% of what he says in class is even related to the material on the test. The textbook helps to understand concepts but even then the tests will ask questions that make you apply these concepts and the professor does not teach you how to apply anything.

No communication, unclear assignments and rubrics, vague in responses, and short/rude in emails. I would not recommend his class. Not sure if the people giving him high ratings had the same professor because this was my worst experience at Kennesaw. I never missed an assignment and worked hard. I wish I could type more, so much to say. BRUTAL.

He is one of the absolute worst when it comes to caring about students success. Majority of my class have been left confused, misinformed and ignored when we needed help with his tasks. He is a careless teacher and if you care about your mental health and grade I advise you to stay away. This is the nicest feedback I can possibly give about him.

DO NOT TAKE HIM. he refuses to help his students with assignments and won't answer any questions unless it's posted on the Discussion Board. very condescending. assignments are difficult and instructions arent clear. going to class doesn't help because he won't answer questions about assignments. doesn't look at averages so don't count on a curve

I took Dr. Ali this past semester and he has been the worst professor I have had at KSU so far. Going to class does not matter as he does not teach anything, instead opting to show clips from comedies. Incredibly vague on every assignment in the class, and creates more confusion when answering questions. Very difficult exams, and a paper. Avoid.

Worst professor ever. You ask him to clarify the assignments and gets mad instead of helping us understand.

Posts very unclear instructions to follow, then grades people very harshly even though he posted terrible instructions. Never ask questions because he does not answer them. Professor has some kind of grudge against students passing his class. If you want to maintain a good GPA then pass on this ridiculous professor.

Ali is one of the worst professor I have had the displeasure of taking. Instructions on all assignments are unclear and there is ONLY busy work for his class. Roughly 20 percent of your grade depends on a group assignment that he grades as though it were a doctoral thesis and gives little to no direction on. Avoid like the plague.

In the grand scheme of things it wasnt THAT hard but the unclear criteria and the fact ALL questions would have to go through discussions posts or else he wouldnt answer them, I would just find another professor. The grading is HARSH. You WILL fail if you wait until last minute due to all the technical difficulties the class experienced. Be warned.

Too many assignments, overlapping deadlines, discussions posts, and a group project with the scope of a thesis. I think Dr. Ali thinks assigning lots of homework make him a better a professor.

It's not that hard but there LOTS of online assignments, beware for them not to work if you have a MacBook!! Only communication is through discussion posts, not announcements. Really picky grader overall, especially for discussion posts and final project. I would recommend anyone else sadly.

I think he is completely oblivious to the fact that students work and have lives. He requires four discussion posts from each student every week. I understand when a professor wants to challenge you to learn, but this feels like busy work and shows a lack of respect for people's time.

One of the worst professors I've had. Grading is inconsistent and extremely harsh. No clear feedback. Felt like guessing every week. This is an internship class, not a research paper. The professor made it harder than most of my major courses. Avoid if you can.

Don't take him unless it's your last choice. The other reviews are pretty accurate imo, but my biggest issue with him is how tough he is on grading while also being so vague with instructions. It's like he does it on purpose to force us to reach out to him for guidance. Every assignment feels like a guessing game and hoping you completed it enough

Awful. Harshest grader you can imagine and every assignment is a guessing game. Vague instructions vague communication. Please don't take this guy

This professor does not care about the well-being of his students. I've never written a review on here, but I feel like I had to. I've never had a professor who I felt genuinely did not care about me or my education. The absolute worst professor I have ever had, coming from someone who's attended 3 schools.

First time posting. Genuinely the worst professor I have had in college. Unorganized and impossible to work with. Will put grades in for assignments that aren't even due. Do not take.

Worst professor I have ever had. No matter how much effort you put into an assignment, he will find a way to deduct points. His McGraw-Hill assignments are due 5-6 at a time, and they take hours to complete. Whoever the other option is for this class, register with them.

Be warned: If you're looking to take this class to fill your electives, it won't be easy. The work isn't hard at all, but the professor was a headache to deal with. He will be the most miserable thing you would deal with, in any course. If you take any of his courses, I can GUARANTEE that he will be the worst professor of your collegiate career.

Nope, this isn't just some easy class that's a free 3 credits. He will make it as difficult as possible and try his best to add unnecessary stress to your life. Even if he's the only one who teaches the course, DON'T TAKE HIM. You're way better off doing a different business elective, rather than trying to decipher this guy's vague instructions.

He is the worst professor in my life. There is too much work to do, and he grades them very harshly. I am not taking this professor again, and I say everyone not to take him.

Terrible professor, terrible human. No respect for students or their time. The school gave him what should be a straight-forward course and he still managed to make it unbearable and complicated. You could send him an email one minute after he responds to you, and he'd still take at least 24 hours to get back. The Grinch of professors. AVOID!!

The worst professor I've ever had. Assignments look straightforward at first until you realize the instructions aren't even updated and there's secret criteria that nobody even knew about. Absurd amount of busy work some weeks, and some assignments aren't even accessible. He will find ANY reason to take as many points off as he can.
