Reviews of professor Saharnaz Baghdadchi

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
She is awesome and a great professor but you will have to put a lot of effort to do well. Her midterms and finals are very hard.

You are lucky you have Prof Baghdadchi. She really encourages you and care about you actually learn from her class. Real gem of UCSD ECE, better enjoy your time with her and work hard : D

Sahar is a great professor for ECE100, has learned a lot from her!

Her lecture is great, and she has a lot of office hours to answer your questions. If you spend a lot of time on the studying material, you will get a good grade.

One of the best teaching professors in UCSD's ECE department. She cares a lot about students learning and creates an interactive classroom. I recommend you take her for any courses you can.

She's just a real must-take. Here we are at the pandemic and rioting times, she really showed concerns and cares for all of us. Crazy generous grading options and extensions. She's just AMAZING, the best professor I've met so far.

Professor is very kind and helpful. She also explains things really well, and has very clear lectures that are flipped-classroom. However, she does talk fast, so you might need to re-watch the lectures that are recorded. But, exam problems are much harder than discussions and lectures, so simply following lecture and discussion is not enough.

Sahar made ECE 101 a very fun class. The classroom was flipped, which meant that we focused on solving practice problems during lecture (which prepared us well for exams). Lectures were very interactive. We also had fun alternative assessment choices - such as oral assessments and group discussion videos.

No homework, weekly labs and lab reports. Mandatory attendance. Tuff exams. Also, she loves grade inflation...A's for everyone :)

Adding to the other reviews, don't be shy! She learns the class's names beforehand using the canvas roster. She tries her best. 100 lecture was alot more concept heavy, compared to 65 was more office hours with her flipped classroom. Lecture attendance isn't required, but very helpful for the labs (doom). Final wasn't as PTSD inducing as 65/101.

Sahar was an excellent professor to have, one of the best I've had in ECE so far. She really made an excellent effort to get to know students and truly cared about each student's success in her class. Although there was a lot to learn, she made it worthwhile. I hope I can have her as a professor again in the future, it's obvious she really cares.

Mom vibes. Very caring. Just smile and wave back if you don't like small talk. Exams were reused from last quarters, so just do all of them (yes all 10) and you should be able to get an A. Our class averages were quite low so I predict she felt bad for the runts.
