Reviews of professor Amir Gandomi Sereshki

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Prof. Gandomi is my favorite professor at Hofstra! I took him for BAN122 as well as IT14, and I came out of both classes learning so much about excel and statistics. His homeworks are MUCH harder than the exams, but the exams are a joke in comparison. Do yourself a favor and go to his office hours, they help more than you think! Amir is the GOAT!

First Impressions were amazing has he had intentions to teach the whole class. However, his style of teaching was too stubborn, making it hard for many to pass. He's not very supportive when it comes to preparing his students for tests. However, his class may help you learn some data mining languages.

Gandomi can't teach. He relies on lectures which essentially involve him reading slides. His tests are outrageously difficult and he is a very harsh grader. It would be a good idea to avoid him.

Tough course but amazing professor. He thoroughly goes through the material. The practice questions and homeworks are very helpful to understand the material. I also have a better understanding of how to use Excel.

Great choice as a professor, lucked upon him by total accident. Does a wonderful job lecturing, writes down everything he says on the board, and his tests are based on his lectures and nothing else. They should name a country after him Sereshkiland.

Class def requires effort, but at the end of the day it is stats. He makes the class as easy as possible and teaches it on excel, which makes it easier. 3 pages of cheat sheets on exams and can use excel. No better professor to take. Make sure you understand the HW, they will help on the exams.

Dr. Amir is an amazing professor. BAN101 is a tough course, but the knowledge gained is worth the effort.
