Reviews of professor Jesse Little

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Dr Little is one of the best AME professors I have had so far. Dont get me wrong, this class is one of the hardest Ive been in, but Dr Little takes the time in class to explain all concepts. Reading the textbook will help reinforce what he is teaching and will give extra practice. I have learned more in this class than any other class at UA.

This was one of the worst classes I ever took. He didn't seem like he cared about his students. He cancels office hours frequently and his exams are hard (but class is curved). Mostly learned from reading the textbook. I would not take a class with him again, mostly because of his extreme lack in enthusiasm.

Very brief overview of all topics in Aerospace engineering that you will see if you continue to pursue Aerospace as a major. Material was all online but the lectures really helped me. One of the easier classes you will take in this major. Also a very interesting class as it takes you through the history of aerospace.

Listen, if it wasn't for the 13% curve he applied to my grade in the end, I would be rating him lower. This class is based off two midterms, a final, and some quizzes. The exams are brutal and the lectures are extremely confusing, but, Jesse does care and want people to succeed in his course, so he applies a massive curve at the end of the year.

Dr. Little rushed through lecture material as fast as possible. I get the sense that he sees undergrads as a barrier to his success in research, or perhaps as a tool for his career advancement. Quizzes were used as a cruel opportunity to push our understanding of topics, rather than as simple quizzes. Grades were based almost entirely on tests.

This class gives you a brief overview of aerodynamics and aircraft performance. It sets you up for AME 320 : Aerodynamics. Two midterms and one final with one quiz every week (10 such quizzes with the lowest dropped). Please do the readings as sometimes quiz questions are based on the assigned readings. Prof. Little is good and very knowledgeable.

Professor does not show up to class most of the time, leaves the TA with incorrect information and does not communicate, despite this being a lab class i never got to do a real experiment, only manipulate data. Lectures and quizzes in this class seem totally unrelated.
