Reviews of professor Maxwell White

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Whoever just bombarded him with 5* reviews, please remember that it was infact students experiences that allows them to write an OPINION based review on the professor, rather than you trying to justify him. I studied, did the homework and asked questions but as they said.. the tests and assessment were difficult and very time consuming.

To each their own. I studied 1 or 2 days for each exam including time spent working on the assignment, and came out of it with a nice grade. It's a hard class, but it's manageable and Mr. White is always available for help. Some people are either not good enough or don't try hard enough. No need to trash the professor. Max is great, CS is difficult

He made the mistake of teaching in a college with rampant cheating especially in the CS dept even before distance learning. Prof. White is a solid teacher and a good person. He is always willing to help and is quick with email responses. In person you could tell he enjoyed teaching but rampant cheating has made him work harder to keep intergrity.

Great guy. Grade based on 3 unit assessments (half exam, half assignment) and quizzes per lecture. Dont give in to the negative reviews. Way too many students cheated and they clearly wont make it far by not bothering to understand the material. If you know how to study, this class is easy. Just do the optional hw and email him to review answers

This is a hard class regardless of the professor, but the professor does a good job compared to what people said about the others and is super fair, the exams are tough but just study and do the work and youll do fine, the people below who review bombed him were salty cause they got caught cheating. Dont cheat, work hard and youll be fine

Professor White is a real gem in the CS Department, transitioned very well online. When I had him in 212 in person he was always willing to help. In emails he may come off as rude but he uses the fewest words possible and gets to the point but he is caring. Exams and assessments are fair, lectures are very good.

I never had Max White but I know a handful of classmates that have had him and all of them would sing praises to how good of a professor he was. Professor White single handedly saved 212, a pivotal course to pass before going to data structures. It's a shame that cheaters had to ruin it and the department's inability to keep good profs.

Honestly, Computer science is not an easy major like some people think it is. People think it's an easy road to success hence they think exams were too difficult. Max is one of the best professors queens college has to offer. I had for 111 lab and 220. One of the best classes I had.
