Reviews of professor Syed Naqvi

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
This was just a freshman seminar class but Dr. Naqvi was such a joy to be around and I genuinely enjoyed the class. He is so passionate about what he speaks about and is genuinely interested when you talk to him. Just make sure you do the few assignments and it should be an easy A.

Naqvi is an amazing professor, and this class remains to be one of my favorite classes Ive ever taken here. There's a mediocre amnt of reading every homework, and only two essays for the whole semester. He grades accurately, so you can't bs this class. Theres group discussions that are useful and you actually learn things that matter in this class.

Nice professor, however a textbook for this class is mandatory as the tests, group projects, and class discussions rely heavily on the book. The only grades you will receive in this class are 5 group projects which he grades hard and 5 tests with 10 questions MC which are slightly difficult. There is no extra credit and he and his TA grade hard.

He is very enthusiastic and made every lectures interesting and fun. Lots of group discussions every day but it's not graded. Awesome lecture slides. Explains well and goes above and beyond. 2 essays and 1 group project. Beware lots of daily reading on a required book and attendance is mandatory. Overall one of the best profs I've ever had.

SUCH AN AMAZING PROFESSOR! Take him if you have the chance, he's so passionate about the subject matter that the lectures are very enjoyable and funny. The class itself is a pretty easy A as long as you complete the assignments, and he's a pretty easy grader. One of the best professors I've had.

This professor is super chill and nice! He gives amazing lectures that create interesting discussions. Although you have to do a discussion question each week, it's bearable, and he lets you discuss it in your own group of your choosing. He isn't a harsh grader as long as you show effort.

BIS 1100 was such a fun class! Professor Naqvi is hilarious, and shares great advice.

Took it thinking it was going to be an easy class, but you have to put some effort if you want an A. 2 quizzes every week based on the reading, they're only 2-5 questions and pretty difficult but he drops the two lowest. There was two essays and group project, he's a little picky on grading the essays so be careful with that.

 One lecture day usually consists of group discussions (which is a grade based on participation) while the other was going through the slides. Overall he's a great proffesor and lecturer, the only down I can say that he is somewhat a tough grader on the weekly reading assignment. Heavy discussion based class.
