Professor K is a real nice person and a good teacher. He made everyone very comfortable the first day and I know we all look forward to his class! He teaches in plain language and not math language so it is very easy to understand.
Cant say enough good things him! It takes a certain kind of quality to make a statistics class enjoyable. He's not like most Math professors who are socially akward. He's down to earth, funny, & really cares about his students. He also makes things easy to understand &doesn't over complicate things. So THANKFUL to have him at Blinn here in Bryan!!
Mr. Khorsandravan was by far the best professor to have. If you put in the effort, you will get a good grade. I would definitely take him if you need this class.
Professor Khorsandravan was the best professor I have ever had. He truly cares about his students, and makes sure you understand the material. He is an excellent communicator, and is very easy to talk to. I would 100% recommend that you take his classes.
He is a cool and funny guy. His life stories and jokes makes the class interesting. I usually get bored in a math class but this one I always looked forward to. defenitley recommend
Khorsandravan really is the most genuine professor i had. He was hilarious and didnt even try to be! Do the work and youll pass his class. Dont expect to pass the tests if you dont study. He gives reviews!!!! Study and do the reviews and its just like the rest but with different numbers! Loved that dude and wish i could take him again!
Uncle Shawn is the most entertaining math professor I have ever had. I took him 2 semesters in a row. He will go over something 100 times if someone doesn't understand and he's good with making it as easy as possible for us.
I never rate my Professors but this Professor is totally worth it. He always made the class laugh and the lectures were easy to follow. He made it a point to get back to every single email, and truly showed that he cared about his students. I wish I could take all my Math course with this Professor. HIGHLY recommend him!!
Professor Shawn is an amazing teacher to have. If you need to take any math class i totally recommend having him as your professor. As long as you put the work in you should have the class in the bag. Also dont be afraid to ask questions he loves helping and will help you understand the problems way better! 10/10 a great guy and awesome professor.
I took Calc in high school so this course was easy for me since it was review. If anyone rates him bad, they didnt try enough . He goes over topics quickly so If you dont understand calc you will need to be prepared to teach yourself everything. Exams are just like the hw, extremely easy. If you dont try, expect to fail.
A very simple class given the transition from in person to online. I also took calculus AB in hs so this was pretty simple and easy. If you took a calculus course before youll be fine, if not just make sure you understand the concepts. He used MML for lectures, exam and hw, so no lectures were made by him. Would definitely take him again!
Professor Shawn was the best professor I have ever had. Considering I just had to take the class for my major and cannot stand math, he made it super enjoyable and helped me the entire way. He goes above and beyond to help students to make sure they understand and has really great communication. Definitely take him you wont regret it!!
Truly one of the best professor I have ever had. He truly cares about all his students and does whatever he can to help them out. You do have to do your homework to understand, but if you don't get it he will definitely take the time out to make sure that you get it right. I would 100% recommend on taking him you will not regret it!!
One of the best professors I've ever had. You'd really be missing out if you don't take his class. He helped his classes a lot when COVID-19 hit. He took time out of his schedule to have zoom classes with us! 10/10 you should definitely have him as your professor!
Im really bad at math and having Shawn as a prof is the only reason I passed. Ive taken him for business math and elementary statistics and he was great for both. Hes always ready to help and the most helpful when you have specific questions. He doesnt show favoritism so your grade will be 100% based on how well you know the material.
Took Professor Shawn for back to back semesters and he was nothing short of amazing! Sometimes i even forgot that he was my professor. Just keep up with homework and office hours and everything will be ok. Exam reviews were very helpful too.
The material was covered by videos that you have to watch if you want to get any sort of participation points whatsoever. Reading the textbook might help you understand what you're doing but he doesn't care. Kind of rude and unapproachable by email. Definitely don't take if you don't have to. Not worth it, will mess up your mental health.
Professor Shawn really cares about his students. I really enjoyed his class as he gave us real life examples. He has a great sense of humor and the best part of the course was that there were no surprises. Exams looked just like reviews and he really does goes out of his way to help you. I Definitely recommend him.
I took this class as a Summer I course so in general it was accelerated & lots of content was covered. But, that did not change the fact that Professor Shawn was always very responsive to email, discussion boards, & office hours. He welcomed questions & wanted to make sure we mastered the content. The Test Reviews gave great practice for the tests.
If you have trouble with math TAKE HIM!!! you Will PASS!
Wonderful prof! I had taken stats at TAMU before and dropped, took this class over the covid 2020 summer and actually understand stats and did well!! You can tell he cares for his students and is a great communicator! the material was clearly laid out on MML and if you can do the reviews you will have no problem on the test! 10/10 recommend
Professor Khorsandravan is the most down to earth and caring professor you will take! He dedicates his time to his students, and ensures that you understand the material. I have never received a grade over a C in a math class, EVER, but with his help I was able to earn an A in a summer course! Best professor ever. I would take him for every class!
Let me preface this by saying I dont do well with math, but I pulled an A in this class during summer. Professor Shawn is incredibly helpful and wants you to master the material. Hes accessible by email and office hours, and really explains the material well when you get hung up on concepts. Do the hw and reviews! 10/10 would take again.
Beyond awesome Professor! I really enjoyed the class before covid hit but even after that when it was online, his Zoom office hours were very helpful. Has a talent to speak math in plain language! His sense of humor makes you enjoy the class as well. definitely recommend.
Absolutely Great Professor! 100% would take again, he's very understanding and will dumb things down if needed lol. Participation is a big thing in his class but if you're willing to work for it you can get an A!
Amazing professor, really works with the students and cares about everyone. He went out of his way to make sure we understood the material and was always ready to help on zoom. As long as you put in the effort and study for the exams you will do good in this class.I really recommend taking Professor, Khorsandravan if you need math 1324!!!
This class requires time and hard work. I took this class in 8 weeks so it was really fast paced. Professor Khorsandravan wants to make sure that you understand what he is teaching, but he also expects you to meet him half way. As long as if you work hard, show up to class, and ask questions, you'll do good. I learned a lot in this class.
He is one of the rudest professors that I have ever had. He is very knowledgeable and teaches the class decent but also makes it uncomfortable by his attitude towards students. Hard to want to ask questions in that case! I would rather have picked a different professor for this course and probably would have gotten a better grade.
I did not enjoy the class (and I love math) he skipped most of the PowerPoints and barely taught anything. I felt like I had to teach most of it to myself through YouTube videos and Pearson. He does want his students to succeed but he came off as rude most of the time. Still not a TERRIBLE class. If you have the choice take someone else.
This was my second class with him and it was not like the first time but that wasn't his fault. Because of covid half the class is self study and it makes it more difficult even though he has videos. I wish I had waited and took this class after covid with him so I would get the whole Shawn experience like I did before! Overall a great guy and prof
He was an okay professor but he frequently had a bad attitude. For MATH1414 his lectures are just him doing problems and expecting you to already know the material. There are always homework assignments on MyMathLab that you must complete. His tests are pretty difficult and the reviews do not usually help. I do not recommend him for this course.
Get ready for a lot of hard work. He will be there to help you and he is very nice if he sees you giving it your best effort. However, if you don't do the work he can change attitude very fast! My study buddy was being absent or late all the time and Shawn did not like it and was direct. If you are a hard worker you'll do ok. His reviews are great
I got most of the answers right on the tests if they where hand graded I would have passed this class half of the "correct answers" are wrong! after showing him pictures he misread them and called us all idiots and then he gave in and he gave us all 10 points extra on 1 test! also he is the rudest teacher he insulted students every class.
He is a wonderful Professor and a person. If someone is rating him poorly, then they must have not done the work. He truly cares for his students. I highly recommend taking Professor K.
Overall great guy. He genuinely cares about his students and will put in the extra effort to help you if you ask. With the 8 week class, the work definitely adds up but if you stay on top of it, you'll be fine. I wish I was actually in class in person with him because he seems so genuine and passionate about teaching.
He has been one of my favorite professors by far and has made learning math more enjoyable and not as challenging. He really cares about his students and wants to see everyone succeed. Just don't slack off and you will end up with a good grade.
Really cares about you and wants you to succeed, but expects you to put in effort. Exams & Final are open notes, reviews are same as Exams. He is NOT rude but he can get sassy. He has no problem with people willing to do the work & put in effort. I loved how he explained harder topics & simplified it for us. Tries to be available outside of class.
Tests are just like the reviews. Is really sassy but will help you if you are showing the effort. Not a bad choice.
I took Math 1414 this fall with professor K and as someone who not only struggles with math but hadn't taken one in almost 4 years this class was a a lot easier than it should've been. The lectures are extremely helpful on homework's and if anything Professor Khorsandravan Is responsive when it comes to emails.
He doesnt give extra credit. If you dont talk in class he gets frustrated, but doesnt care if you show up. He is kind of rude on zoom and gets mad at the class when we tell him we cant see anything. He does curve the tests though and as long as you turn everything in you will be fine.
Prof. K is an amazing and caring teacher. He is very professional and very much cares for students.
I was super nervous about taking math, especially online. The class was fairly simple as long as you stayed on top of your assignments. He gave the BEST reviews before exams, and you could use them while taking the test. If you were having any trouble understanding a certain concept, he was more than happy to help with it! Best math prof!!
Professor Khorsandravan is a GREAT teacher. If you do what he asks, which is clearly stated, you will not only pass but at least get a B. I am notoriously awful at math and I actually understood the material because of him . He was always ready to meet with his students and loves to help out. He will make this class fun and easily understandable.
Professor Khorsandravan makes it easy to succeed in a class that many might struggle at. He designs the reviews to be identical to the test with different number which helps you be prepared for the exam. Many professors make reviews that dont help but his definitely helped me a lot. If you follow directions you will easily succeed.
Excellent Professor who really knows his stuff. I learned a lot in his class. Lots of Homework though but nothing unreasonable.
I took this as a zoom online class & he was super rude and got mad when we would ask questions. Not the best at explaining things but it was an easy class for me because I easily understand math. The reviews that he gives are almost exactly like the test, just with different numbers. He offers extra zoom meetings to ask questions about the review.
Shawn is one of the coolest Professors I have ever had. This was an 8 week class and even though the lectures were long, the lectures were easy to follow because of his teaching skills and his sense of humor. His Reviews are great! As long as you do your homework and show up you will be fine.
He is simply an amazing Professor. He really cares about your success but definitely expects you to put in the work.
Terrible at putting in grades. Waited till drop date to put any grades in. Gets off topic during class lectures all the time. If you struggle with math you won't pass if you don't show up to every office hours as well.
Pros: exams are just like the reviews, some easy extra credit and he addresses any questions you have in class Cons: has a lot of other classes and mixed them up, not helpful over email, does not care about you. Watch out for the final it's nothing like the rest of the class. Refuses to accommodate anyone who needs to be on zoom
The class itself is very difficult but this is the best professor to have for it. He made class interactive and fun & helped a lot during office hours. Great professor- participate in all extra credit (flo) and do the hws!!
Great teacher! Love special K! Took him fall 2021
Shawn was a great professor. Calculus was a hard subject for me to learn, but I'm so glad I didn't take this class with any other prof. His class consists of participation 10%, homework 10%, exams 60%, and final exam 20%. He let us use a cheat sheet for our exams and his reviews were exactly like the test just different numbers/order.
Professor K is an awesome teacher! I have never been good at math and made a B. He made everything so easy and made the reviews exactly like the tests. He genuinely cares about his students and wants everyone to succeed. Do your homework and do what he says, you're guaranteed to pass this class. I took him for 1324 and 1325 and LOVE HIS CLASS.
test are easy and makes the reviews exactly like them but screws you on the final. had a 96 all year then the final was nothing like the review and very hard and dropped me to a 86. no extra credit. but i'd still recommend him because the class was lowkey easy but beware the of the final
I took his class in fall of 2021 and it was the best professor I have ever had. I highly recommend taking professor K. and be prepared to do more than just the Bare Minimum (BM). Overall great guy and I definitely miss his class
DONT TAKE HIM! he has good review but very rude and does not prepare you for the test.!The test are just like the review just with different numbers. I come to the test 4 and there are some random question that we have not learned and only some questions where like a review. He is very rude in emails and does not prepare you for the final.
I took calculus with Professor K and I loved every minute of it. Exam reviews look JUST LIKE actual exams but different numbers and order. But the best part of the course were his recorded lecture videos. He dumbs down everything to the point that I felt like calc was easier than when I took Algebra lol. MUST TAKE COURSE!
I took this class in spring and loved every minute of it. He is an amazing Professor who knows how to teach and how to make the class not boring haha. Beware though, you have to work hard.
I had Professor K for 1324 and 1325 last year and he only got better. He does a good job of making his grading system very clear. If you listen to him and pay attention during lectures, you WILL get a good grade. He makes everything very easy to digest. He also skips all the unnecessary stuff so class is usually shorter than what its listed as.
All I can say is that Professor K was nothing short of amazing. There were no extra credits or anything but exams and homework were so reasonable that the only way you wouldn't succeed is if you don't do the work. The exam reviews were very helpful as well.
Took STATS 1342 for 8 weeks and overall the class is fairly straight forward. Tests are written exactly like the reviews that are given. Follow his directions and stay on top of the concepts, it can get confusing!! The final exam is written differently compared to his tests, but as long as you study the final review, you will pass this course.
He is a great professor! Take advantage of the videos for that he provides for HIS lectures. They are much more helpful than the ones on mymathlab. He provides reviews before each test and they help GREATLY be sure to do them. He is easy to talk to and is very understanding, I am glad I took him for business cal!
Best math prof ever. I took his 8 week class and lectures are a little long but he tries to make it fun. Do the reviews and the exams will be extremely easy. (they are almost identical). Homework assignments are on my math lab and they aren't too heavy. I highly recommend taking him!!!
Easy exams which are identical to the test reviews. The final exam was also fairly easy. His lectures are clear and he's pretty funny. HW is done on Pearson and helps a lot with studying. Since the class is "easy" he DOES NOT do curves, extra credit, or any exceptions. Emails back fast but is short w/ his response. I would recommend taking him.
This man is a legend, but he teaches extremely fast and has a strict no late or exceptions policy. He does not put up with anything so if you are looking for a push over nice guy, not him. If you are looking for an old school style of teacher he is the one, fairness across the board no exceptions.
Taking Calculus with Professor K is one of the best experiences I have had at Blinn. He is willing to meet with you on zoom and help you with the material you did not understand when watching the lecture videos. He also has a great sense of humor and a very friendly dude! Given his personality, I can only imagine how much fun his f2f class must be.
Professor Khorsandravan is a professor you need if you want to understand Math. He is straight forward with what he says about grading and assignment along with how tests will go but will give you time to prepare for these things. He wants the students that will put the time in learning his material to build a strong work ethic. Great professor!
He is OK at teaching but he is a very rude person. He is also very unprofessional and if you ever have any questions about anything expect them to not be answered or if he does it's a very rude and unprofessional response that will be no use. He is always late to class and did not show up for 5 classes this semester. Take someone else to avoid bs.
Professor K breaks everything down to the simplest steps. He shows you how to use your calculators to do long problems in a very short amount of time and he is pretty funny too:) You can tell he loves statistics because he relates it to every day problems we can relate too. Exams look JUST like reviews just different numbers. I Highly recommend him
I really enjoyed this professor. He was very straightforward and made stat actually kinda fun to learn. His stories are interesting and his examples help you understand the material. If you study and do as he says, you will be successful in this course. I highly recommend him.
Absolutely do not take this professor at all. There are so many homeworks and no routine for the due date so you constantly have to keep track of the multiple homeworks due each week. He is impossible to work with. Assignments are unclear and so are the outdated lectures with no instructions on how to use the calculator for more difficult problems.
I took prof. K's online class. It wasn't hard, except for the final which covered some stuff he didn't really discuss in lectures. You have unlimited attempts for the homeworks (which there are a lot of) and he provides reviews for his exams that are extremely helpful. If you struggle with math like I do, he makes it very basic and understandable.
This prof basically refused to answer any questions outside of office hours or class time. He doesn't do by maybe one example of a problem in class and doesn't teach it very well in general. The exams are exactly like the exam reviews so just do those. The final is completely different and covers stuff he never taught. Final review doesn't help.
Professor Khorsandravan is a great professor who is clear on what the class will entail. As long as you go to class, do the homework will see that the exams clearly reflect what is taught in class. The final is a little hard, but that is department wide and requires a little more studying. Would definitely retake this class!!!
Professor K was really nice and explained concepts well. I took this class as a 4 week online course so while I had hw almost everyday it was still very manageable. Tests just like review. Just make sure you scan your room well on honor lock so you don't get points taken off. he will work with you as long as you are honest and trying! Great prof!
His lecture videos were great and has clear grading criteria for everything. he is also quick to reply to emails. But be careful. He doesn't make any exceptions. He says it in his announcements, syllabus and emails lol.
The absolute best math professor. He only teaches you the things you need to know. Gives a review just like the test beforehand. Homeworks are online and have a view example and help me solve feature. You can do them as many times as you want to get the grade you want until the due date. Explains everything super well. Makes class so easy 100/10
He is an amazing professor if you don't miss class, do the homework and most importantly do the reviews that are near identical to exams but with different numbers. One warning though. He is not a pushover by any means. He keeps saying that he doesn't make exceptions and my experience was that he 100% meant it.
Overall, I recommend Professor Khorsandravan. I took this course as an online summer class, and honestly, it was a lot of work to get the grade I wanted. It is very important to learn and understand the material so you can fill out the exam reviews to a T since they are just like the exams. He isn't very nice over email, though.
dont take him lol
Khorsandravan made this class very straight forward and easy. He likes to tell stories during his lectures which makes the class way more interesting. You will also always get out of the class early. The reviews he gives you for every test except the final are pretty much exact copies of the tests which different numbers so they are very easy.
Professor K is very strict with his policies but this dude is as cool as the other side of the pillow. You can tell that he is just one of the "guys" and can relate to you. If you are taking a math class, it is a no brainer to take it with him.
One of the worst professors I have ever had, he is unclear with due dates and the final exam was nothing that he ever taught in his class. If you try to email him for help about anything he will just not respond.
He makes the grading criteria very clear the first day. if you do all the hw, pop quizzes, and exam reviews you will succeed in this class. The test and exams are very similar and the lectures are straight to the point. He does not put up with students that do the bare minimum but if you put in the effort he will be very easy going!
A negligent professor to say the least. This being the only course I made below an A this semester, I found professor K to be arrogant and negligent with his duties. Be prepared to do a lot of self-learning due to his lack of assistance and poor teaching methods. Majority of my class expressed the same concerns during study sessions.
This professor was the rudest I have encountered yet. His communication skills need some work! I'm embarrassed for the college to employ someone who is this unprofessional.
This professor is all over the place. He over promises and under delivers. My whole class is super confused on how to complete assignments and on the content because he has barely taught us. He expects us to teach ourselves. I have emailed him multiple times and no response. The class should be easy but the prof makes it so difficult.
Professor K is very good at teaching the course material. He is very good at breaking down difficult problems into easy ones with clear steps. He also provides Exam reviews with solutions that help very much. Just don't miss his lectures as he teaches a lot of short cuts. I highly recommend taking your math class with him.
absolutely horrible. we weren't allowed to take notes because thats "not how you learn" exams were extremely hard. the whole class studied in the library and we were all confused. dropped my grade 35 points the MORNING of the final. randomly passed me with a C in hopes of keeping his job. Should be fired and notified of his horrible teaching style.
If you are planning on taking Professor K's class, just don't miss any classes. He teaches a lot of short cuts and dumb things down lol. I missed one class the entire semester and had to do so much more to learn them on my own.
Great but strict professor. His online lectures are very easy to follow. Just don't fall behind. the class went by fast.
I took this class online and he has recorded lectures that are AMAZING! Watch the videos, as he says check MyLab every day so you wouldn't miss anything and you'll do fine. Just remember that he doesn't make any exceptions for anyone and he is very proud of if so don't push him like one of my classmates tried to haha!
This class mentally and physically exhausted me. Not only was he a rude professor but was not fair at all. Do not take this professor. Worst 8 weeks of my life.
DO NOT TAKE THIS PROF!! If you are able to take another prof do it, and save yourself the stress. Horrible communication, wouldn't respond to emails. Never addressed the class or reached out to communicate anything. Would post "pop" quizzes randomly. Failed me on the last day of the course. If you're taking this class online just don't do it.
Don't take a course with this professor if you can avoid it. He is rude and standoffish in online communications, and he assigns pop quizzes that randomly appear for a day. You have to do your work for tests on a white board, so no checking your work after you've erased, and there's no partial credit for small mistakes on the test questions either.
Worst Prof ever. There is a line in the syllabus that says "Extra credit and rounding is for hard exams and my exams are easy therefor there is no extra credit of any kind". Out of I think the 7 emails I sent him throughout the entire class he responded to one. Maybe in person he is better but I would NOT recommend him for an online course.
Watch professors own videos and youll be good. dont fall behind because he doesnt give extentions
This professor relies on the syllabus. If you don't read it don't bother to email him because it's all in the syllabus. His class is a self taught class if you are online. I respect him because he wasn't difficult, my classmates complained because they didn't want to study. His reviews are carbon copies of the exams. Down to the exact # of q's!
If you are not good at math I would not take him , everything is teaching yourself.
This was an online class; if you take it, be ready to teach yourself everything. He also does not care to help when emailing him and genuinely couldn't care less about us as students. There is also ZERO partial credit for online exams. Stay away from him and find somebody who cares to help you learn the math that is being assigned.
Honestly the best math professor I have ever had. He teaches the subject and explains things very well. On top of that he gives you a review for the exams which not many professors do. It is an 8 week class so stay on top of your work. That being said you need to go to class and pay attention. And if you miss a lecture you're probably cooked.
I joined the class late. There was no mercy from this professor. An automatic zero even though I joined the class after the exam.
As someone who gets A's I wouldn't take this as an 8 week class. The exam are easy since the reviews are the exact same thing but there was no preparation for the final which is nothing compared to the other exams. If you're good at math then you'll be fine but if not then I wouldn't take this class. Good professor but the final humbled me.
This was likely my best experiance with a professor at blinn the class is definitely not easy but he makes it as easy as possible with lectures and also very good homework that helps with tests would definitely recommend
Good professor, for your sake, DO THE TEST REVIEWS THEY ARE EXACTLY LIKE THE TEST just a small amount of things are changed, such a normal. Check my math lab every day since he does give pop quizzes. You also get an extra 5 points if you take the test online Pretty funny and cool as well. Also look at the syllabus before emailing him...
He has great lectures and will explain everything in a way you can understand it. Be ontop of your work because there are pop quizzes. He was pretty good about 504 accommodations and if you play game his way then he's helpful and easy to work with.
I would 100% recommend his class if you stay on top of your homework and check mymathlab daily you will pass. All the exams are identical to the review so if you do your exam you will get a good grade. He also tells us funny stories so the class isn't boring.
hes pretty cool, wack stories but i messed with it. Easy homework, reviews just like exam. Overall just a chill guy.
Take Professor K! Definitely the best math professor I have ever had! Go to all of the classes because you will fall behind if you don't. He gives reviews that are very helpful for the tests so study them! If you stay on top of your work and study you will be fine. Professor K is also extremely funny and has a lot of interesting stories. TAKE HIM!
TAKE HIM!! If you have any college algebra background, this class should be pretty easy. His reviews are JUST like the test which helps so much! All homework and quizzes are online so be sure to be on top of your stuff. Go to his office hours and make a relationship with him! He is very kind if you get to know him.
I saw him as one of the few sharper than me… not just clever but wise in a way that bordered on folly. His reviews reflected the exam well, something that is rare nowadays. And his teaching days went by fast thanks to his goofy interactions.
Honestly this was my favorite class this semester. The lectures go by really quickly so if you've never seen the material before it can be a little overwhelming. The exams are easy since he gives a review that is basically word for word what will be on the exam. He's such a fun guy & tells lots of exciting stories. Would 10/10 recommend his class!
If you are willing to take the class seriously, this professor is worth taking. All the homework is online (Mymathlab) and you are expected to check it daily for “pop quizzes”. The reviews are very similar to the test, which is AMAZING! If math is not your strong suit maybe take someone else as he does not explain in great depth sometimes.
His tests are exactly like the review, and as long as you aren't sleeping in class and doing the hw, you should be good; just make sure you keep an eye out for the pop quizzes online; super easy if you catch them.
The class wasn't hard at all, and the lectures are very informative. The test are exactly like the review, however the final is super hard. There are lots of pop-quizzes/assignments online that are only open for a day so just log in daily to check if theres any.
Super chill professor but follows the syllabus word for word. One thing through is that if you miss a class you will be cooked. He teaches a lot of short cuts and lays out his expectations for the course and exams.
Professor K's class is a mixed bag - stay on top of the work and you'll do well, but be prepared for an uneven teaching style. unstuck AI was a lifesaver for exam prep when the lectures weren't clicking. Overall, a passable course if you put in the effort.
Professor K is an outstanding Professor who really knows his stuff. Don't miss class, do the homework (which sometimes can be much) and you will do good.
Professor Khorsandravan is one of the best Math teachers I've had. A definite must take.
Professor Khorsandravan was the best math professor I have had in my time at school. I have always been awful at math but Prof. K taught it extremely well and made it easier to understand. Reviews were just like the tests so study them. I also took him for 1325 but ended up having to drop because I was just not doing well enough to stay in.
This was the worst online class experience I've ever had. I had at least 3-4 assignments every day when homework's and class participation only count for 10% of your grade. Tests were 80% of the grade. None of his lectures or graded content were original. When I tried asking him about anything he responded days later and passive aggressively.
Pretty awful teacher. Wasn't able to reach out and communication was off.
Cool and chill prof! If you watch his lecture videos and keep up with the due dates which is easy to do, you'll do good.
Professor K is not your typical "math" professor. He is much more personable than even some of my social science professors. Lectures are fun and straight to the point. The only thing that was an issue for me a couple of times is that he does NOT give any extensions whatsoever. Still, If he is an available option, I highly recommend him.
Great professor. He's being honest when he says the final's way harder than the other exams tho. Work is relatively easy, I took it as an 8-week and still wasn't too overwhelmed. He's funny and I like his personality, plus he gave me an A when I ended with an 89 so I don't dislike him at all lol. Class is chill, just study with the Pearson lessons
Nice guy just wish he explained his lectures deeper. Attendance not required but you should definitely attend lectures. I hardly did & it shows. Unlimited attempts on hw assignments and exams are exactly like the review. The final is really difficult though, definitely study. Would recommend overall
Truthful review, Prof K is a genuine professor, he does care for the learning for the students but personally his teaching style was hard to pick up. His lectures, reviews, test, homework, all off of Pearson. His email policy is a little wack and makes you scared to reach out, but just be courageous and do it. But putting in the work is rewarding.
Hey everyone, Attendance was not mandatory but boy oh boy you should not miss a class. His lectures are amazing and straight to the point. He teaches lots of shortcuts and avoids stuff you don't need. I missed only 2 classes the entire semester and when I had to study and learn everything on my own, it was very hard. A++
If you stay on top of the homework, pay attention during lectures, and review regularly, you'll get an A easily. The professor is very responsive and gets straight to the point in lectures, focusing on exactly what you need to know for the tests. The review materials closely match the actual exams. As long as you put in the effort, highly recommend
Professor K changed the requirements several times during our course, inconsistent. difficult to keep up with assignments because he would open, close, and reopen them at random. I tried reaching out to him multiple times throughout the course but never received a response unless he was accusing of cheating on exams with live proctors on Honorlock.
An online course with him was awful. Material is easy but you must get an external web cam to take tests, proctoring is a nightmare and he is SUPER strict. Program he uses gives no leeway for any rounding errors, you can know the material well and still get an 80% because you rounded .0001 off. Also impossible to reach. Use test reviews they help.
I took his summer online course and would not recommend. From the insane amount of homework which didn't benefit at all, he was incredibly disrespectful when he responded to emails and addressed the class, when he even answered. His proctoring method was inconsistent and even took off 20 points of my test grade and accused me of cheating. AVOID
This professor doesn't care about you. His homework is easy, but he never releases it on time. I was more worried about the position of my web cam more than taking the actually exam. He rarely responds to your emails at all. Please look for a professor that actually wants you to learn and pass in you class, than fail you.
Professor K receives a lot of criticism, but I enjoyed his class. I took the online summer course, so i knew I would have to put in the work to do well. I loved his lectures and really learned the material. As long as you are respectful and show that you have put in the time and effort, you are golden and will receive responses from him!
DO NOT TAKE. Worst prof I've experienced. The Blinn math department's policies are unreasonable, and this professor somehow exacerbates the issue. He has a strict "no exceptions" policy which he uses as an excuse to not reply to emails from confused students. He posts the content at the beginning of the semester and you never hear from him again.
He's an alright teacher. He treats you assuming you know the syllabus by heart. If you fall short on the slightest rule/ standard, even if it's so minute it intrinsically doesn't matter, your grade will suffer. The exam proctoring was way too rigorous for how unimportant the class is (the majority taking it are A&M students that have to take it)
Don't recommend! He cares too much about exam proctoring that he makes you buy a whiteboard and webcam. He has a strict no exceptions rule and uses it to his advantage to not answer emails from students. The tests are on Pearson, which marks answers wrong for tiny mistakes like an extra space, and he gives no retakes or extra credit.
Professor K is fantastic at teaching! I took the online class with pre-recorded lecture videos and watching those videos are key to your success as his real life examples help you understand everything better. Beware of pop quizzes and interactive content. If you don't check ALEKS on a daily basis, you may miss some. Highly recommend.
His assignments are simple and not really hard at all. He's strict, but I think he's fair and reasonable with his grading policies.
The lectures are very good and the topic is very interesting. I thoroughly enjoyed his class.
I took this class over the summer online and the video lectures were excellent. If you watch the videos you'll be set. A++
he is an amazing math teacher. If you don't miss his lectures and do the homework assignments it would be impossible not to get an A.
Professor Khorsandravan is a strict yet fantastic and caring person. If you can keep up with the work and are not going to slack then I highly recommend taking his class.
Ultimately, this is a calculus class at a junior college, but the professor stands out as the best math instructor I've had. With consistent attention in lectures and solid preparation for exams, success is very achievable.
Professor K can definitely come off as rough around the edges, but he provides students with everything they need to succeed. His lectures were insightful and straight to the point. He provides exam reviews for all exams, including the final. What you put into this class is what you get out of it! Professor K is awesome and I highly recommend!
first red flag should've been when he pulled up his rate my professor and gave himself a 1 to show us "how little he cared about his rating" (it was way lower then). i was not a fan of this class. maybe if i exerted myself more i would've. no extra time for assignments. prob a good/ funny guy outside of class but not teaching.
A most likely nice man out side of the class room, but taught as if we already knew all the material. Doesn't input grades, pop quizzes online that you will most likely miss and are weighted heavily, no extra credit, does not drop lowest grade, and is late to class every day. The only good thing was the reviews.
Amazing and straight to the point professor. you must log in to aleks everyday or you may miss quizzes. He says stats is his passion and it truly shows. Just not the type you can get by with brown nosing lol.
Professor K breaks down everything really well which is why going to class is worthwhile. I am going to take stats with him too. Just beware of pop quizzes. You need to check for them everyday.
