Reviews of professor Ashik Iqbal

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
The only good thing that has come from Iqbal is ending class early. Every class is a lecture and they couldn't be more boring. He throws out the longest formulas for everything and doesn't teach you how to use them. He just expects you to know. He does allow cheat note cards for quizzes and test which is good, but you can't fit all the info on them

Quizzes are timed and it's a sprint to finish.  You either know it or don't.  Do the work, get a good grade.  His lectures expand on the material from the book and class notes.  Study and understand the homeworks and the quizzes and tests should go fine.

All the HW and exams are on connect and are taken on your own time. Lectures are boring but you don't really have to go often. Book is mandatory but only for connect access, you don't need to do the readings.

Prof. Iqbal seems to believe that every person in his class is a Supply Chain major. He acts as if everything is very easy to understand, even if its your first time seeing the material. He has a monotone inflection, and has a sort of unwillingness to understand the student's perspective. He emphasizes how "easy" everything should be. It is not.

Great guy, but a terrible teacher. The whole semester was a mess because of his hard quizzes/exams. Lectures were poor and unorganized. I really did not learn much from him. Some perks however include exam cheat sheets, and he makes accommodations for the class. He also curves grades after the semester is over. Take this class online if possible.

He makes the class as simple as possible which is great since most of us are not supply chain majors. The tests use a lot of questions from the quizzes which is super helpful!! We get to use a cheat sheet and try the homework problems as many times as we want. I would 100% take his class again.

This class was the hardest class I have taken in my last 4 years in BGSU. It's not a difficult subject but he makes it really hard. His lectures are not relevant to his quizzes and tests, his slides have so much content that the students have no idea what is important. Grades are only based on tests, so impossible to recover if you fail tests/quiz.

Ashik is a nice professor that genuinely cares about his students. However, it take him a long time to get through lecture materials and it doesn't reflect the material on the exams. An easy A, but you don't learn a whole lot in the class. Group project oriented, but is unorganized and has no clear objectives or rubric.
