Reviews of professor Masoumeh Arabi

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
As long as you understand the homework, you should be completely fine on tests. She lets you have a formula sheet, and the problems are rarely difficult. The only obstacle is her accent (Irani), but it's not nearly as bad as some other professors I've had.

I honestly did not enjoy her lecture as much since she mostly read off of slides that were probably from the textbook publisher. Her exams are relatively easy if you have done the homework but you will have a hard time earning partial credit if you're not 100% sure on where you are going with the problem.

AVOID AT ALL COST! Shes a horrible grader, its either her way or the highway. She throws curveballs in the exams, shes always trying to trick you. You have to read the book, her lectures are not enough at all.

Had Arabi for a lab for a hybrid class. Very knowledgeable on the subject and does a good job at explaining the equations and formulas. Was a great help with questions about the online portion. Does not get angry easily and will help when needed.

It was a great experience having Prof. Arabi as our lab instructor in Physics 37. She is very kind and professional, can help you with any question and spend time with you until you completely understand the topic. Her lectures are helpful, however the best way to study was Canvas materials. Our lab reports were only graded on final

Prof. Arabi is very nice and approachable; pretty reasonable and fair w/ tests (70% of grade), which are based off of practice tests and HW questions (assigned or from OpenStax textbook), so do ALOT of practice questions to do well! Tests are multiple choice w/ very few questions so take your time/read thoroughly. Easy grader w/ everything else.

One of the best Professor that I ever had, She is very helpful knowledgeable, she explains the materials very well and the exams are very straightforward. Physics is a very hard subject and you need to work hard for your grade. A is very do able just do your work and study hard. Overall the Best Professor in the physics department.
