Reviews of professor Eduardo Castro

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
This is the first class I have failed since I have joined NJIT and this isn't even the hardest. After taking the same course with another professor, I can confidently tell you that he is by far the worst professor in NJIT. Insanely difficult exams, terrible teaching, and a narcissistic personality. Avoid at all costs.

I've never had a worse professor. He tries to teach in a manner that's straight forward and simple but forgets to mention key points and details. His exams are nothing like the homework and review problems and he is aggressive in his grading. Do not take him if you want to learn and pass.

Professor Castro is really good at teaching. I took the 6-9 so it was really long and boring, BUT he teaches at a slow pace for the sake of your understanding which definitely was necessary. I always heard this class was really hard, and it was a little challenging, but thanks to Castro, I got an A!

The main allure to taking Prof Castro's class is being hybrid so you don't have to show up for many lectures. When watching the videos, just skip right to the examples and save yourself the trouble. His exams are essentially the same as the homework/examples, but he will add one question to test if you know your V&M diagrams, so beware.

Cares about his students but hes pretty boring and lectures for the entire class time so I had a hard time focusing.The class itself is fairly easy, I got a B and I didnt do any of the extra problems so if you pay attention, do the HW and do some of the extra problems and youll be fine. I recommend taking this class split up to 80 minutes per class

Difficult class but if you pay attention you can do it Exams and work are tough but fair , professor teaches material very well and clearly Class resources and lecture recordings were always fully accessible on canvas which was extremely helpful

Hybrid class Records a video and makes mistakes. still post it with the mistakes just to waste your time and makes you feel stupid. This person should not be allowed teach, the reason i got a good grade is that i did not watch any of his videos and spent class time watching other-QUALIFIED TEACHERS- teaching the same class. Dont take him.

Good professor. If you pay attention and do your homework, you'll pass no doubt. The exams are like the homework, gives about 4 homework problems a week. He's a little rude. Ask questions and he'll help.

He honestly is fine, class can be boring but he gets the job done. He even posts practice problems and videos of all lectures. You will learn the most by doing the homework (which can be tough but he doesn't assign too much). Tests don't go beyond what you see on the homework. Lab requires too much effort for only being 10% of final grade.
