Reviews of professor Cyrus Aidun

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Dr. Aidun is a decent pick for fluids. The class is hard and he goes over practice that is mostly applicable to the tests, but lectures can tend to get boring. With the proper focus, an A is very doable as the test grading is slightly on the gracious side. I took it in the spring and an A actually ended up being a 91+...

Great lecturer and genuinely wants students to succeed. Class is still really hard though but curves decently

Dr. Aidun is a very kind and caring professor with very helpful office hours. He assigns many homework problems, but the solutions are always available and they are not collected for credit. The class is graded by the average of four exams, with an optional final exam that can only help you. He is a tough grader, but test content is telegraphed.

He's alright. Lectures are really boring, and don't cover anything you can't find in the textbook. If you do the practice problems and understand the homework you'll be prepared for the tests.

Great Professor. Explains everything you need to know to be successful on tests. Be prepared for tests though as the class was graded by four midterms or four midterms and a final, no other grades. Grading was fair and test problems were very similar to practice problems.

He's a really good professor! Class was a little boring but he makes up for that by being a REALLY generous grader. Extra credit offered. The final was optional. Exams based on textbook and homework. Accessible outside of class and really cares about you making a good grade. I would know I started the semester failing lol. Best option for Fluids!

Can't ask questions during exam, only at beginning. No calculators. Explained concepts well in class with plenty of examples and grades generously. Curved the class down(??) Extra credit by computer project that adds 10 points onto final grade, nearly impossible to get all 10. Start early as soon as he releases, it takes more than a week to finish.

Assign 30-40 pages of a term paper, single space, and only give you 1 month. Terrible teaching skills and no care about the student. Always let the student do a presentation without him put in any effort.
