Reviews of professor Sanjai Tripathi

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Sanjai seems like a funny and easygoing guy in lectures, but I met with him outside of class once to ask a question about an assignment and he was unbelievably rude to me and implied that I was attempting to cheat on the assignment. This was the only time I seriously thought about making some kind of formal complaint about an instructor.

Was fine at lecturing, but an extremely hard grader and gave me no feedback whatsoever. Waited until the end of the term to grade anything so you couldnt adjust to his style of grading. I normally perform well, but I prefer calc over this ridiculousness.

This was a much better experience than BA 260. Clearly he has a passion for this course. The material was much more engaging, and felt like it had more bearing on my future career. Sanjai was great, I had to go to him for help a couple of times, and I found him extremely helpful, and his guidance on the group project invaluable.

There aren't any lectures or PowerPoints to teach/learn the lessons.  It's very much 'read the text book and multiple articles, good luck'.  There are study guides, but the study guides don't really align with the questions on the quizzes or midterms. I can tell the professor is knowledgeable based on little feedback received.

Overall approachable and understanding professor. Gave us online readings instead of a textbook. A little bit of a hard grader on presentations and such, but it wasn't bad for a 4 credit class. It is heavily based on group work, but if you put in the work you'll do well.

This is my second time taking a course with Sanjai online and he is by far my favorite professor. This class was surprisingly easy for being a capstone course. The group project was relatively easy, the solo project was a little difficult and long, but the final was made optional. Grading was very fair and he had very quick responses to questions.
