Reviews of professor Frederic Sarazin

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Not that great of a prof. Somewhat condescending and schedules test at Friday at 7pm. Like someone else said you'll learn more from reading the book.

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
It's always a pleasure taking a non-mechanical engineering course and seeing the inarguable difference in quality between the professors. Professor Sarazin was a true pleasure to have as an instructor. He's passionate about the material, knowledgeable, well prepared, and makes you apply what you've learned to practical problems.

Professor Sarazin has been by far the worst professor at Mines. He is difficult to understand and does not explain concepts clearly. He thinks that the students should know previous information that should really be taught in class. He tries to trick you on his tests and the test results are the worst averages I have seen at Mines.

Good prof fun and helpful

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Sarazin is passionate about some of his material (like nuclear physics) but his lectures are mostly useless, as he just recites what is on his slides and does exercises that can be found online. When going into office hours he can be helpful but is very condescending and rude at times. The grading scale is extremely unclear as well.
