Reviews of professor Ivan Figueroa

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
The thing about him is that his lectures are extremely monotoned which made it hard to follow through. His exams are pretty difficult, but studying will make sure you at least pass. He gives a LOT of extra credit too. The exams are pretty much your entire grade.

He is a really nice professor. His lectures do go based on the power points but he does go into more detail when he explains. Went on 4 test grades and the quizzes were extra credit. You do need the book because the subject is pretty hard and you will need to read and go over things on your own. Overall good class and I would take again.

Literally the worst and hardest class I have ever taken. He only goes off of 5 exams and 2 projects. I took him during COVID virus and it was really hard to adapt. His tests were timed and were at a specific time, so you had to take it in that allotted time and wouldn't open it back up if anything happened. Only thing good was extra credit.

Test questions where rephrased from the original format giving it a different meaning. It came across superfluous, sounding like an introduction from Neil deGrasse Tyson. Although, he does give a lot of extra credit since the class average for every exam is about 60%. Extra credit is going out there to a donor center he approves and donating blood

HORRIBLE! You dont know whats going on because he never really says whats due. One time he said a assignment was due Friday and ended up saying he never said that and it was due the day of. He gives you study guides for the test literally hours before when he said he would do it in the beginning of the week. If you email him hell never reply.

I won't take him unless he was the only one available. Heavy readings and involves his personal life during class too much. Not to mention, he's a tough grader.

I honestly Im surprised at how I managed to get a B in this tough class. He gave a lot of extra credit, if it wasnt for the extra credit. I possibly would end up getting a D on the class. Side Note: He rewords the exams, so the answers or questions dont appear on the internet. Be aware of that other than that he uses TopHat for the exams.

Quite literally the worst professor I have ever taken. His exams are worth so much and are extremely hard. He gives 10+ extra credit points on test grades. Without the points everyone would probably fail. The final is worth so many points and he is not even clear on what we should study. This class is hard as it is, and he makes it worse.

this guy is literally so chill and his classes are not as hard as the ratings make it seem. His classes are very easy to manage, there's no homework but they are exam heavy. Basically, the only time you'd spend doing anything for this class is when you're studying for the exams. The exams are only hard if you don't study.
