Reviews of professor Gity Karami

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Karami was very nice. This class had group assignments and some group quizzes, but overall was on the easier side.

Where does UTD find these professors? I have never met a person who refuses to read what is in front of their eyes. She can't even copy what the textbook says! Also, who teaches the same lecture over and over again?? Please run away, or you will cry. I don't even know if the curve is worth it anymore (if there is one).

Pros: Her exams are open notes and the questions are from the review. She posts video lectures that are good. Cons: In-class quizzes randomly. Her in-class lectures are not good since she writes down everything on a notepad. Her TA started grading really hard after the midterm. There is no consistency and clarity in the grading sometimes.

key takeaway is that this prof allows you to work with 1 grouopmate for all assignments. the TA grades very harshly but tests are open-note and are all questions you've seen before on prev reviews/hw/quizzes, so print every one of those out. be aware she is the final boss for ADHD students. she teaches very slowly and is very monotonous.

Dr Karami had a super poor course structure. Nothing was outlined properly and she never could answer student questions because she did not know the answers. She changed how things would work after you had already done them because she felt like it, even did it during the class final. I would avoid this teacher at all costs.

I hate how this professor copies everything from the textbook while we copy what she writes down from the textbook. There is not much teaching that goes on rather you have to analyze and try to learn yourself because the professor doesn't explain what she is writing down as she copies from the textbook.

Professor Karami does not reply to emails and neither does she upload her notes in a timely manner. I will never take her again!

By far the best professor for CS 2340 (Computer Architecture). She posts all her lectures to e-learning which makes it really easy to catch up if you miss class.

Horrible class. Bad at teaching, bad at communicating, homework is long and tedious, grading takes over a month, in-person quizzes every class, the list goes on. Exams are literally off the homework, and the homework is off the textbook. You can look up the textbook solution PDF lol. Easy class but still horrible, nonetheless.

Prof Karami provided good lectures. Exams are difficult but open notes. Lecture slides have many examples and are helpful for exams. HW was extremely long and tedious, but she does provide plenty of time for it
