Reviews of professor Thaddeus Black

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
This professor is to be AVOIDED at all costs . He is an extremely tough grader, who will pose questions to mechanical engineers that are difficult for third year electrical engineers to solve. Furthermore, he is unprofessional, rude, condescending, and unaccommodating to extenuating circumstances, he will punish you for things outside your control.

Grading on tests can be unclear. Go to office hours to fight for points back for tests, almost every time you can get at least a point. Must go to class and take notes to understand, but the professor cares about students and presents his notes in a well fashioned manor. I would say he is prepared to teach each class

Prof. Black is really underrated. He gets a bad wrap often because he is very specific about how he wants things presented and likes things a certain way (e.g. he expects graphs on hws to be drafted with a straightedge). However, he's animated & responsive & really cares about his students 'getting' each major concept
