Reviews of professor Maryam Abhari

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Assignments and tests from the textbook are fairly easy as long as you read. Her lectures are painfully boring, but you must watch them to pass the mc tests. Lots of questions in mc tests are ridiculously specific or have metaphors/examples that are confusing. If mc exams weren't 30% of the grade, I would've actually liked this class.

There are really not that many assignments. The problem was she barely gave us instructions to do excel assignments. We had to figure it out ourselves which made be purchase Chegg. That was the only thing that helped me get through this course. Very good responder and understandable.

Excellent professor. She is engaged with students in terms of them needing help and her tests are what you learned in the lectures. I think her reading from the slides is due to her being a new professor but I can't and wont knock her for that. Do take her!

This class is pretty chill for an upper division course. You will learn a lot about HTML. You need to watch her posted lectures when you are stuck an assignment. Don't have to go to class at a scheduled time because lectures are posted online. Somewhat lenient on late work if you give a respectable excuse.

She deeply cares for the students and makes sure that each student is able to apply the course concepts to the class projects which directly help me get an internship. Her class was one of the most valuable courses I have taken at SDSU.

I didn't know what to expect going into this class, but I left actually learning a lot. She is super sweet and really cares about her students.

I am a pretty reasonable person, just a normal student looking for classes and professors that will not make my life miserable and here is my take. Her lectures are fine, they are just boring but aren't the worst thing because it is kind of on the test. The problem for me is that you are 100% on your own for the assignments with little to no help.

mixed feelings about this class. wasn't super interesting so lectures were painful. but abhari is very attentive to her students and answers emails super fast! she teaches this class a lot easier than some of the other MIS professors do. pulling off an A/B is realistic if you do all the assignments on time and review lecture notes before the test

Getting an A/B in her class is relatively easy due to her curves for the excel exams. However, going to lecture was honestly painful, she would read the slides word for word in a monotone voice. I did not learn anything from the lectures, but the assignments taught me a lot.

She doesn't teach at all so tests feel totally random.
