He takes attendance randomly by bringing in the IClicker base random days. Only midterm and final, no other tests. Weekly online HW and also biweekly Matlab HW. Easy to understand him, and he will go through the whole hw problem if you talk to him in his office. Much better than the other matlab teacher. Don't get the textbook.
He was a little rough at the beginning, but that can just be chalked up to newness. Much better than the alternative (Hundley). One of the best CompSci professors I've ever had.
New teacher, but he got the hang of it and was much better toward the end. He actually cares about students learning the MATLAB and is actively trying to make the class better for the future. 2 tests per semester, but do the HW and you'll do fine. Attendance is mandatory so if you don't go, he will FA you, but it doesn't factor into your grade.
Matlab is a hard class. No matter who your professor is. I definitely would rather have him than Hundley, but it still will be extremely difficult. 60% of your grade is the midterm and the final. They are both difficult, but go to his office hours, he gives points back sometimes. Easy to pass, not easy to get an A or B.
He assigned hard homework assignments and fairly simple practice problems on cody coursework. The homework is difficult, but it is doable if you work with others. He gives a midterm and a final which each cost 30% of your grade so you have to do good on these to pass. They were both difficult, and he only bumps up grades if you have an 89, 79, etc
Sardinas is a nice guy and actually really helpful if you go to office hours. Unfortunately, not much is learned in class, and there are a lot of out of class assignments. The Midterm and Final are worth 35% each, and they are made more difficult than the out of class assignments. He also offers a bonus 2% to overall grade for good attendance.
I am terrible with computers, and Mr. Sardinas didn't help too much with that. You have a lot of homework reading, not in the textbook but in Zybooks. Your textbook can be helpful for clarification, but most of your time will be on Zybooks. Tests aren't difficult if you understand coding-but I don't-so they really suck.
He explains the class very well and makes himself very available to get help. If you haven't taken programming before, I would take the lab, it helps a lot. Class isn't that hard, but the midterm and final are 32 MC questions worth 70% of your grade, but he does curve it.
Absolutely awful. Save your life right now and do not take him if you can help it.
Apparently, if you take Hunley it's more work, but you'll get a good grade out of it. If you take Sardinas, you can work a whole lot and not make a good grade because the Midterm and Final (16-17 questions a piece) make up 70% of your grade.
MATLAB in general is a difficult class. He scales the exams (by a lot) and does give bonus points, so even though the midterm and final are worth 70% of the final grade, if you do the homework and try to understand the concepts you should be fine. He's also very helpful if you go to him for office hours.
This was the hardest class I have ever taken. Our class average on the final exam was a 55, and the final is worth 35% of our final grade. The midterm was also worth 35%, and homeworks are the other 30%. This leaves little room for error on tests, and he does not compromise to much.
This man is one of the absolute worst teachers I've ever had. He teaches a beginning programming class like we were all experts and basically your whole grade is based on an impossible midterm and final.
Matlab can be hard to catch onto but Sardinas's lectures don't really help. I strongly suggest taking the 1201 lab, and go to office hours. Midterm and final are each worth 35% of the grade and don't at all compare to the other coursework.
Good lectures. Very approachable and will answer questions you have. If you pay attention in lecture, do all the HW and assignments, and do some outside research/learning you'll do fine. There are 2 exams. Combined they count for a large portion of the grade (60%+). It is crucial to do well on these two exams to pass the class.
There is weekly homework that takes 1-2 hours and then 4 major homeworks that take up a lot of time depending on your skill in matlab. His tests count for a major portion of your grade and are only about 15 questions. He isn't helpful at all in office hours. Only way I got by in this class was reading all 10 chapters of the textbook for the final.
Overall, a good teacher. Two tests count for 35%, homeworks are 20%, pop quizzes are 10%, and the final is 35% of your grade. The homeworks are pretty straightforward and the tests were multiple choice. The only thing I didn't like is that he talks fast and it makes his lectures hard to follow but other than that he is good.
I did not like this professor at all. You will probably have to get a tutor to get help with the homework unless you are already a genius programmer. It doesn't seem too hard at first, but he never really goes over it in class or anything so it can take FOREVER. He also takes weeks to grade assignments or to reply to emails, it's ridiculous.

If you can avoid him I would. His tests are really just testing if you can catch trick questions and understand his half-algorithm, half-code pseudocode. Unfortunately this is not a useful skill outside of the class. I do not know how to C program. I wish I could've taken Hundley at least I would've actually learned.
He's really nice and is willing to help you when you need it. Gives pop quizzes so going to class is pretty important.
By far the worst professor I've had at Auburn. Lectures are choppy and fast, and he barely seems to understand the material himself. The wording on most of his quiz and test questions is incredibly vague, which makes the class way harder than the material itself. Often multiple right answers or no right answers because of typos and poor wording.
He's a nice guy and he genuinely cares about the students, but the class is not structured very well. The grade is based too much on very difficult multiple choice exams, and hardly at all on actually writing code.
Tests weren't too difficult if you just paid attention in class. Homework was rough though. Sardinas spent too much time trying to teach us the concepts of C, that he didn't really bother to show us how to actually code in C.
This is a difficult class but he was a good teacher and really cares. It is just a hard subject that most students just want to get over with. Pay attention in class and do the homework and you will be fine. The homework gets progressively harder and builds off what you have learned. You have to understand the material to make a good grade.
This class was overloaded with assignments. The content of the homework was out of the scope of the classwork and it was unclear as to what we were doing. The grading was easy.
As a person, I like him--as a teacher, I do not. He doesn't give realistic examples and he spends more time explaining why he is explaining than actually explaining. He often misses morning classes and teaches more than necessary in evening classes. If you have previous MATLAB experience, I'm sure he's great--otherwise, just don't.
always tried to make things complicated when the class is actlly easy he gives pops quizzes without fixed dates n so u have to attend all these useless classes that he records anyways the assignments can be challenging and it is beyond the education we learnt he drops the lowest exam thats the only positive thing
Your grade depends on the midterm and final. Lectures do not prepare you for the assignments.
12/10 doctors would not recommend this class for your health. I'm joking, but I'm also serious. Unless you've already had MATLAB before I would not take him. He told me to google my questions, but gave me resourceful sites. There are only two tests (midterm and final) and it's 70% of your grade. Anyway, save yourself a panic attack and just don't.
This class is awful. This was my first programming class, and I largely had to teach myself. Midterm and Final are only 16 multiple choice questions, each question is worth up to 2% of your entire grade. He curves the exams only enough so that the average is a D-.
Avoid at all costs. Terrible professor. Final and Midterm are nearly impossible for newcomers to Matlab.
Two tests are seventy percent of your grade. Zero curve with only twenty-five questions on each test. He teaches at a level for kids who already know computer programming. If this is your first programming class you really have to work for your grade.
Professor Sardinas is not too bad of a teacher. It is more of a combination of a tough class in general and very few grades. The mid-term and final are %70 percent of your grade. The weekly homework is tough at times, but the practice homework is pretty hard compared to what he taught on that topic.
Quite possibly one of the worst teachers I have ever had. Tests are ridiculously hard and if you have never had MATLAB before they are nearly impossible. Try to avoid at all costs.
Midterm and Final worth 70% of your grade. Lectures come from the powerpoints which aren't specific or make any sense. Takes forever to grade anything, despite everything being on scantrons. Homework due every week. Sloppy teaching styles.
Sardinas is an alright teacher. His lectures could be better; the accompanying powerpoints are not that detailed and his examples aren't very useful. There is only a midterm and final each worth 35% of your grade which seems a little unfair. I recommend taking this class as a sophomore so you know more people and can work together on assignments.
Sardinas probably knows what he's doing, but he's not very good at explaining it to you. I learned much more from taking the optional lab that from attending lectures (Zybooks was a life-saver). Irritating to be tested on what you haven't been taught, but if you actually do Zybooks and the homework w/out cheating, it's not too difficult.
Sardinas taught the very basics of matlab, however, I could learn everything he taught in an hour with an online tutorial. He only has midterm and final and they are 100 times harder and more in depth than what he teaches in class. Try really hard on homework. That's what barely got me a B.
STAY AWAY FROM SARDINAS!!! The class was completely optional so it is fine if you skip, but I never did and his lectures were pointless. His tests were super hard and there were only two. The homework was hard but doable, since you could redo it till you get a 100. The tests were not over his lectures and it was terrible. I say get someone else.
This class is very passable but requires a lot of work with little explanation. Coding is definitely not my strongest attribute. I would recommend taking the optional lab.
Took for C Programming and my god this man is a horrible teacher. He only reads off slides from power points but never actually teaches you how to code. His homework are ridiculously hard and so are his tests. He drops the lowest two quiz grades but that doesn't help if you go to class. He only gives three tests worth %70 of your grade.
Took Sardinas for matlab which is going to be hard even with a good teacher. However, Sardinas is far from a good teacher. I actually don't think I would be able to type one line of code if I tried. Both teachers for the curriculum are bad but if you have the choice do not take Sardinas.
Most people don't like Sardinas, but that's because MATLAB is one of the first "major" classes that a lot of engineers takes, and a lot of them will eventually be weeded out. However, if you go to class and pay attention, ask questions when you need to, read the zybooks and do your homework yourself instead of copying it, you will do fine.
(GPA RUINER) I have A's in ALL of my classes except his (I have a 79) & it is the week before thanksgiving break. The homework can be between 4-10 hours a week (I do all of it). Despite all this the average for his last test was a 50 and I got a 78 (he doesn't scale). If you do not have experience in computer programming then don't take this class!
This guy makes videos that you have to watch, the videos are boring and bad, and on top of that, up to an hour or two long. The pop quizzes are stupid hard, the tests are even harder. You have homework nearly every week and sometimes even homework projects. This is the worst teacher Ive ever had and I went to public school. People have cried, man.
The textbook is bad. It takes forever, and it hardly counts for your grade at all. If the ZyBooks chapter is due next Sunday, you'll have a pop quiz on the entire thing on Wednesday that week, so you likely hadn't even learned the content. Coming to class was a waste of time. The projects at the end of the semester were fun, however. Try to avoid.
Overall, Professor Sardinas wasn't too bad, his material was just extremely difficult. But in the end he doesn't want you to fail, but you still need to work and study hard.
The class has gotten monumentally better thanks to zybooks, that's what I owe my passing grade to. Sardinas knows his stuff but he just isn't a good teacher. He gives random pop quizzes, so you have to go to class most of the time. His lectures aren't that helpful since the textbook will tell (and teach) you the same thing.
Sardinas isn't the best lecturer in the CSSE department, but he's not the worst. The cloud class has 3 homework assignments and a semester long project that are tough but not undoable if you pay attention.
Dr. Sardinas was honestly great for this class. I don't find the material very interesting beyond surface-level details, as it deals with how programming languages work and are implemented. He makes it approachable and bearable. His pop quizzes and projects are pretty easy, and his midterm and final are pretty much vocabulary quizzes.
Rodrigo is a very good teacher. His methodology might seem off beat in the beginning but it will all make sense at the end of the class. I took him for a special topics class on Cloud Computing. I felt rewarded with the knowledge at the end of the class.
He Read from powerpoints available on canvas all semester. Basically will teach yourself through zybooks. if you have never taking any coding before, get ready to study. Find friends in that class to help you.
Lectures are boring. If you dont already know how to code then youre going to have a hard time. Lots of graded assignments but the two tests hes gives you are multiple choice and to write a code. The final had no partial credit given so if you couldnt code what he asked, you got a 0. On the final!!! Not a good professor at all. Dont take!!!
Sardinas is a pretty average professor who happens to be easy. Exams were easy, study the quizzes and you'll make an A on both. The programming problems were pretty difficult, but absolutely manageable. His lectures are a snooze, however, so be ready for that. Pretty cool guy individually, but as a professor, he's extremely average.
This class is amazing. The material isn't that interesting but Professor Sardinas is great. Gives clear explanation in his homework and lectures and is a very easy grader. Quizzes and Exams were very straight forward and easy to understand. Highly rate taking this professor for COMP 3220
Great for principles. Gives a few quizzes, a midterm, a final and 4 short projects. Would take again.
One of the best comp professors at Auburn. This is the guy to take. Don't let people tell you otherwise, yes sometimes the projects require some time, but professor sardinas is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. My biggest regret is he doesn't teach more classes.
As long as you study the Zybooks heavily before the midterm and final, you will do fine. The lab helps too.
This is definitely one of the easy A's of the comp courses, however I would say his lectures can be used to fix my sleep schedule. His assignments are weird because it goes from easy to more difficult to I literally type 4 lines. I think his purpose when teaching this course is to simply just inform people, so don't worry 2 much about difficulty.
This professor is the best. He uses Discord for students to ask questions during lectures. He managed to teach a lot of material without making his class too difficult. Take him if you can and don't listen to the other normie engineering majors taking him for Matlab.
Professor Sardinas is a good teacher who cares about his students. He provides all the resources you need to succeed. The class is much better in person than online, as his voice is a little monotonous, but do not confuse this with bad teaching because its not. He even has a class Discord channel.
If you're not a computer science major who understands coding immediately and wants to do it for the rest of your life, just don't take this man's class. It's not worth it. His lectures are useless & the exercises are so frustrating. Maybe it makes me a "normie engineering major" but if you have no coding experience or knowhow like me, don't do it.
Sardinas is a good professor and he cares a lot about Cloud Computing; however, the Openstack project is really hard and you will spend a LOT of time on it. Also, you are assigned groups and if you end up with a bad group like me it will make the projects very irritating. Quizzes and Tests are all easy and help boost your grade
Professor Sardinas is a great guy and really knows cloud computing and openstack. He listens to the students, and does a great job explaining everything. The main project is a little tough but cool. He's a really awesome guy and cares about the students. Many times he stayed late at office hours to help us with problems. Would take again!
Dr. Sardinas cares a lot about his students. He has a class discord which is cool and convenient. The coding assignments aren't as hard as they seem, but vocareum is finnicky and you should start early because you use old programming languages in this class. He makes the exams from the quizzes, which is very nice. You learn a good bit if you try.
He has us submit coding assignments online through Vocareum but it doesn't do partial credit very well at all. I submitted a project that had around a 30 line output and I got every line right except for one and I got a 0 on the project. The materials not very hard at all but if your code isn't 100% perfect your grade will tank.
He explains concepts clearly and organized the content well. He will teach everything but highlights what you will need to know for the exam. It cuts down on the studying you need to do. Simple projects in ruby every 2 wks. Quizzes and exams are straightforward. Start early on the hw because it takes time!
He's a great professor, however the material isn't too interesting. His quizzes aren't too bad and he posts practice quizzes to help you study for the midterm that help a LOT. Homeworks can be a little confusing however I think it is good because it helps you learn new languages. Lectures can be confusing/boring because it is so in depth.
Dr. Sardinas explains all concepts clearly & simply. The class content is difficult, but the grading criteria makes this class much easier. All quizzes and exams are verbatim from the HW and practice quizzes. He explains the projects in detail in class. Also, if you do your HW and projects early you can get bonus points.
Nice guy who got stuck with a horrible, boring class. PPL is somehow the most basic class at times while being the most intense and abstract at others. The class material is generally irrelevant to normal CS majors. Sardinas knows this and bases exams on practice quizzes and gives extra credit for completing coding assignments early. Easy 100+
The material in this class can be really confusing but Professor Sardinas did his best to help us understand the material. He clearly labels what you will be tested on and goes over each of the projects in class. He also gives a lot of extra credit just by turning in your homework before the due date. Really nice professor.
Dr. Sardinas managed to take a somewhat boring and difficult class and make it approachable. His lectures are optional, and any material you need to ace all of the exams is on the powerpoints. That being said, I still went to most lectures, because they were enjoyable. If you have the option, take Sardinas for 3220.
Sardinas is one of the better CS professors at Auburn. He actually takes the time to give quality lectures. His projects are challenging but not too difficult. He gives practice quizzes, which are immensely helpful.
Didn't care for the material too much but Dr. Sardinas is a great professor. He actually engages with the material and his excitement is contagious. Projects can be a little difficult, but tests and quizzes really help to boost your grade.
Pretty solid choice. The man tries to teach you everything you need to know but the material is rather dry. He did get slightly sloppy by forgetting to post quizzes but overall Im glad I took his class. Projects were interesting and exposes you to languages youre not familiar with.
He's a very funny and smart professor. Pay attention in class and you will do fine.
COMP 6970: Platform as a Service. Class is applicable to work. It is basically Sardinas rehashing the textbook. He does a good job so lectures are better than the book, but the book is good if you're short on time. Lots of tedious assignments pulled from the book and exams are same format as PPL. Would recommend taking to further industry knowledge
Dr. Sardinas is great. He drops your lowest quiz grade and the exams aren't too bad if you pay attention. Class isn't mandatory and he posts his lectures online if you can't make it. He explains concepts thoroughly and isn't a tough grader. The programming assignments can be tricky at times, but you have all the resources you need to do well.
60% of your grade is from coding assignments, which is nice if you enjoy coding (I'd hope so). The assignments are more than manageable if you go to class and/or are capable of googling. The midterm and final exam use the same questions as the practice quizzes, so make sure to use those to your advantage.
Most of the grade is based on group projects, which are very difficult - not because the actual work required for them is hard, just because the instructions he provides are godawful. Prepare to google for hours on end. Has a discord but students can't communicate about assignments in it and he won't actually help until after submission deadline.
Mr sardinas's COMP3220 is the easiest computer class I've ever taken,he give us many extra credits on assignments,and the assignments proportion is very high, his exams will not be difficult. If you usually study, then you should at least get a B, and you will definitely not fall to a C, because almost people in the class are almost A or even A+.
Most of your grade is from the semester-long group project, so try to take the class with a good group. If you have that, it's a great way to learn Linux and cloud stuff. His docs are decent and he'll help you a ton in office hours if you don't procrastinate (stuff is due Sunday, but do it by Friday so you can go to office hours).
Fairly difficult class based mostly around learning Linux and networking, but an incredibly rewarding experience. You have a semester-long project, and you work in groups to do the deliverables. Be sure to try to finish assignments early so you can go to office hours with questions when it inevitably breaks.
Pros: You can get an A or B No Attendance Cons: Project Due every week Takes up more time than all your other classes combined No instructions Given (tells you to google everything) For instructions, you need to go to office hours EVERY week Takes 20+ hours a week (literally) Don't take unless you have to, only class I regret taking at Auburn.
Dr sardinas is the easiest professor in all computer major courses, the score is the highest in my all computer courses, because he will give you many extra credits in assignments. If you learn, your assignments score will get over 100, even 120, and this will make your total score get over than 100. And the exams are also very easy.
Principles of Programming Languages with Sardinas is excellent! He makes the abstract material extremely easy to understand and doesn't try to kill you with his assignments. I would not stress about having to take his class!
He was an ok professor. He let his TAs teach. I saw this man once. He took forever to reply. However, he was fair in his grading, which makes up for all that other stuff.
This class was great. I highly recommend taking Mr. Sardinas for any Comp classes you may have.
Took him for python. I went to 2 lectures and 1 lab total, both are useless. Content and assignments are online so I do it all on my own. If you are very math and logic brained, this will be your favorite class--fun and easy content and no expectations from the professor. Quizzes due every Sunday, and one midterm and final. spent 4 hours a week MAX
Cloud Computing was a difficult class, mainly because it is primarily a group project, and Sardinas doesn't have enough resources to give everyone their own server. The grading criteria could be difficult to parse sometimes, but Sardinas is incredibly accessible. I'd recommend any class he teaches, as he is very fair and is a good lecturer.
This is a class about programming languages in the abstract. If it sounds boring, you have no idea. Despite that, Sardinas is a great lecturer and would give us 30 extra credit points on assignments if we used Github Copilot. I was sitting at a 115 for most of the class and would just watch the lectures on zoom after class. Should be an easy A.
All homework is done through Vocareum which is annoying as there is no partial credit. Do get extra credit for using GitHub Co-Pilot. Material is not that tough but if your code is wrong your grade will tank as homework is 60% of your grade. Quizzes are easy and directly influence the exams.
Labs don't make sense unless you are a week ahead which is just unrealistic. Luckily the TA's are helpful. The weekly quizzes are mostly trick questions that don't accurately judge how well you code. Couldn't consistently get more than an 80 on them even with studying. MCQ on midterm/final is just from practice quizzes question banks though.
Mostly graded on a semester long group project. Good news, you can choose your group if you know people and prof is usually a lenient grader. Bad news, if you don't know people or get stuck with a bad group you can easily be screwed. Project is very hard and you will be teaching yourself but if you survive you will be an expert and fear nothing.
Going to the lectures and labs was basically useless. He recited things we had to read on our own time in Zybooks anyway. Everything is done on your own time pretty much. Python itself isn't difficult. There's readings, labs, labs, lab homework, and a quiz due every week. I have been treating this like an online class.
Dr. Sardinas has good lectures and puts in effort to engage and relate to the class. He's also realistic and understanding, so as long as you're communicative and reasonable he will try to help you out. The assignments are tough if you're not used to switching between languages, and they're worth a lot of points, but he's generous with deadlines.
Pretty good lecturer and an empathetic teacher. I missed a project, and while he wanted to be just by not letting me do it late, the amount of extra credit he provided on the other projects made up for it. Class is mostly Vocareum projects with 2 weeks each and unlimited submissions. Lectures are kinda boring but he's decently easy to listen to.
Sardinas is my personal goat for the Computer Science department at Auburn. His Comp3220 class was decently difficult, but that's just the nature of the material. Comp 2710 was excellent, except he would use Bash commands without explaining them sometimes. Great grading policies and breakdown. Great professor overall
"The weekly quizzes are mostly trick questions that don't accurately judge how well you code. Couldn't consistently get more than an 80 on them even with studying. MCQ on midterm/final is just from practice quizzes question banks though." Copy and pasted from another review, pretty accurate. Amount of hw for a 2 credit hr class is ridiculous though
Sardinas makes this abstract course engaging. While homework can be tricky on Vocareum, use of GitHub Copilot helped me ace assignments. Quizzes were easy prep for exams. Unstuck AI was a game-changer for my study routine.
I loved this class, The material was boring at times but Sardinas is VERY clear about assignment details and explaining concepts that will appear on quizzes and test. He also gives a generous amount of extra credit for completing assignments early and completing extra tasks. You are definitely given all of the tools to do well in this class.
Never showed up to class and have almost a perfect 100. Videos and slides from the lecture are posted, but you don't even need them. This class is super easy, there's just a ton of busy work that you have to do each week. Every week there is an online MC quiz. There is a midterm and final but he uses the same exact questions from the quizzes.
Lots of busy work, but nothing too difficult. No attendance, just takes a lot of time to finish all the readings, labs, and homeworks. The quizzes every week weren't terrible if you just study.
This class is very boring, but Sardinas is a good professor.
Sardinas was one of the better CSSE professors I had (which says a lot about the department lol). The class material was a boring slog to get through but all of exams and homeworks were extremely easy. Didn't learn much but still made an easy A. Also, lots and lots of bonus points available on homeworks.
Professor Sardinas' class wasn't challenging. He offered 5-25 extra credit points on all coding assignments, which made up all but one of the assignments. All quizzes and tests were online. Assignments were 60, quizzes were 10%, and tests were 30%.
Very lecture heavy, but always offered an online option, even if you were in the in-person section. Learned many different languages within a short time span.
This is my second year taking Sardinas but when I did take this course I was more than happy. Unlike other classes within this department, Sardinas paces class VERY well. If you even semi regularly attend classes and just review the slides you can do very well. He cares about you getting a good grade and doing well so visit office hours.
When I tell you this class is an insane amount of work, I mean it, especially for a 2-credit class. Attendance was not mandatory, and I did almost all of it on my own; however, it took hours to complete the weekly assignments. Nothing too hard, just LOTS of busy work.
Can't speak for the final, but the midterm was questions pulled directly from the quizzes. Projects are easy enough, and if you miss class just watch the recordings. One of the easier classes you'll get.
never went to class once, just did it all at home. couldn't pick this professor out of a crowd. Coding is hard and he doesn't make it easy. a crap ton of work do at the end of the week and its way to much.
During Comp 1220 I never saw this professor. He was not the person lecturing and his TA did labs and lectures. I would not recognize this man if I saw him. A little odd to say the least.
The class itself was very easy and as long as you don't procrastinate should be an easy A. Study those practice quizzes (wink). The lectures themselves were very boring, and the class itself also was very hard to care about. Wish there was more programming application. Just don't think ill remember any of this in like 3 months.
Boring Class, but cushion A for those who need it. Do the practice quizzes and you are good.
I'm so sorry you have to take this class. The homework and labs are beyond excessive and the quizzes do not test programing knowledge but rather just memorization. Get ready to spend 4 ish hours a week memorizing Python syntax. I feel like I did not learn anything except a newfound hate of programming where I once loved it.
He didn't really do much, don't go to class and just do zyBooks. Pretty easy and smooth going class it's just an average coding class at Auburn EVERYTHING IS ONLINE no point of going in person for anything.
