Hari was the worst professor I've had at Northeastern. I had genuine discussions with peers about whether he knew the Systems & Signals content. If you ask a question, he loves to give an answer to a unrelated question and fumble his way out of answering your question. He obviously didn't care about my class and put even less time into preparation.5800 2025-01-02 23:52:17 +0000 UTC
If you attend lectures, you will do fine in the class. Class is graded off of mostly homework and tests.GE2361 2021-08-15 23:03:45 +0000 UTC
Dishonest about uploading HWs when he promised - we had 2 short homework assignments the whole semester. Exams worth 85% of grade. Scrolls aimlessly thru handwritten notes for the whole lecture. I heard him talking demeaningly about certain students' intelligence. Unprepared, incapable of answering questions, and rarely accessible by email.5800 2024-12-11 00:23:51 +0000 UTC
The only thing that gets put in the gradebook are three tests or "quizzes" worth 15% each, 5% in class participation and attendance, and a final worth 50%. While he is generous with his grading, he does NOT curve. Only 7 people passed this one quiz with 80%+, the others had 40% or lower, and he did nothing about it.GE2361 2019-12-04 14:32:52 +0000 UTC
