Reviews of professor Moe Rabea

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Rabea's lecture is alright. The lecture is boring. Lots of studying needed to do well on exams. However, despite this, he is WAY BETTER than the alternative Davis. Davis is very bad and has a high fail rate, see his RateMyProfessor. Take Okhuysen since he is the best, but he does not teach every semester. Or you have no choice but to take Rabea.

Rabea is pretty chill. He helps you a lot during the labs if you need it. Very chill and nice.

nice professor but lectures were really boring and useless in my opinion. 0 homework which didn't help with quizzes and exams. Quizzes and exams require lots of reading. Provides study guides that aren't clear and hard to follow.

This class is a fun class. Very thorough when explaining what to do during the lab. If you are unsure just ask. No phones allowed which is lame if you want to take pictures/ videos. Only 1 extensive lab report, the rest were just discussions. Write about everything you possibly can.

I took Rabea for the summer term, so a whole 4 months of info crammed into 5 weeks, but he somehow managed to do it pretty well. The lectures were dry but the lab was fun and he definitely is passionate about his field and cares about his students. We had 2 midterms and a final for lecture and a few lab reports, nothing too crazy.

His lectures are always really boring, reading directly from powerpoints and talking in a monotone voice. Tests and can be difficult but reading through the powerpoints again worked for me. Gave 3 quizzes and 3 tests which counted for all of the final grade. Heard he is easiest for lectures. Lab was really good. Very few lab reports after week 4.

Rabea's lab is way better than his lecture.  It's clear that he really enjoys lab and is very nice and helpful. He does sometimes go quick when explaining what to do, so ask questions if you don't know.  Don't be scared and pay attention. He said in all of his time teaching (like 15 years) there has never been one accident so you should be okay.

I took Rabea for lab and lecture, loved the combo. His lectures are a bit boring but make sure you take notes because his exams are pretty tough even though they're multiple choice. His labs are fun and he's right there with you the whole time. If you study the lecture material well, this class shouldn't be too difficult to pass, he's a cool guy!

One of the best professors in the whole IME department. Cares about his students and will always help a student in need. 10/10 recommend..

No real guideline for writing reports and will only tell you what he wants AFTER grading. Had him half online during the COVID-19 pandemic and he was even worse. Makes you go to zoom meetings to watch videos while he's on his phone. The actual labs are fun, but he makes it somewhat bad. He is still somehow better than other professors for this lab.
