Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Nice professor but very hard midterm and final exam. Need to memorize more than 300 questions for exam. Got D even struggling a lot in class.

Very hard to follow . He post the hw on powerpoints and it takes more than hour to find the hw which and where they are located. Very unprofessional and unorganized professor and did not learn anything in this class.

Theres an open-note quiz every other class and if you do the review you will definitely get 100% every quiz. Make sure you follow the syllabus so you don't miss anything and right after you take the quizzes(which last 5-10 minutes) you can leave. Easiest class ever and most lenient and respected professor.

Great professor. Super easy class. Anyone who says otherwise did not even put an ounce of effort to try.

The quizzes are easy! You can search the answers online so that quizzes are no problem! For the middle and final test, you need to study all the question that the professor will give you. Easy A if you practice for those tests. The classes are really boring just powerpoint, but he cares about you and if you understand.

Please avoid this professor. He don't know anything about java. he only gives quiz, midterm and final. The lab questions are really hard because he copy all the questions from the google and for sure all answers can be found in chegg. Lazy,worst, unorganized, professor i have ever seen in nova. Did not learn anything in his class.

The other people here scared the crap out of me. Sheehan is a fine professor, allows re-submissions (for honest tries). Literally gives study guides (yes- they are overly long, but its a luxury after taking net sec with out them at any length) attendance not mandatory, but its a trap not to go. Go, do the work, and get your credits. All's fair.

Sheehan was the only professor i've had at NOVA that would actually let students make up for missing a quiz or two and even the FINAL. His consideration to let students use open notes during quizzes and do extra credit is something i'll always appreciate. Make sure you're in class and you will pass because he goes over the questions for the final!

He is the easiest professor. He is very kind and caring. 80% of the grade is the midterm and final, which are the easiest tests ever. We have quizzes each class which are open book/comp and a guranteed 10/10. He is the funniest teacher I have ever had. He also curves the grades, which is unfair to students who actually earned an A but whatever

Donot take this professor, you dont learn anything . Only read the slides. Waste of time and money. I only went to class for only 2 days in the whole 16 weeks semester.
