Reviews of professor Firat Sayin

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
To be fair, he is a very tough marker and doesn't provide you with the clearest feedback. You can put in time and effort x10 in any given task and still end up with an 80%. He is not a rude guy but will you make work so hard and your work won't feel as appreciated as you deserve. If you can find someone else... do so.

I really liked Firat, I heard about his bad midterm average last semester but it really improved this semester. He knows the material well and he really cares about students and listens to our feedback, like we asked for more kahoots and more exam preparation help and gave it to us, great prof.

I enjoyed the lectures, Firat gives examples for everything. The group project was frustrating at times but I thought he was really generous grading for that. The midterm and exam require you to study the textbook in it's entirety- I found them reasonable, and not overly challenging if you study well. Genuinely want students to do well!

He seems like a nice guy outside the classroom, but overall, he is a hard marker and makes the course hard for no reason. If you can avoid him, it will be better for your mental health.

Awful. Makes his students feel stupid and is really bad at answering questions and explaining what he expects. Makes an easy class difficult.

Gives you a group project worth 35% and will not dock group members if they do not contribute. Make sure you pick good members! Lectures were okay, midterm was completely different from what he had told us. Had five days throughout the year that were mandatory to attend they were a full percentage that you were given if you showed up.

marks midterm incredibly hard, the class average was a 46%. his lectures are boring but he plays kahoot which makes it bearable.

I didn't go to every class but studied hard and did well. Creates good practice midterms and finals, but be aware of "unimportant" topics as they appear in short answer questions. Good guy, grades harsher than your average business professor, and has a few mandatory classes for participation points.
