Reviews of professor Javier Vilcaez

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I would not take this class again. The class is him reading of 70 slides during the time. There is no study guide at all for the tests. The labs are easy but the grading is hard depending on who your TA is. You total grade is your daily points which there is class code at the end that you have to submit, there is 3 tests, and your lab grades.

He reads directly from the slides and doesn't give any other information. The only grades are from attendance, tests, and labs. The lab TAs will give you the answers to the entire lab so you're not learning anything. The tests are made up with the "Sample Exam Questions" from the slides. This class was a waste of time.

Professor Vilcaez was not a great professor. He stuck to his slides and did nothing else. There are 3 midterm exams with no study guides. There is a lab every week worth only 2 points each. Attendance is mandatory and worth points, so go or have a friend give you the code. Almost no cushion if you receive a bad test grade. Thumbs down.

He's impossible to understand, because he mumbles so much and is so unconfident in just about everything he says. Every day you will go through about 40+ slides so be ready to be writing a lot of things down, and also be ready for him to speed through slides. The class itself is easy, but if you have the option, go for a different professor.
