Reviews of professor Jacob Drew

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Pretty much ruins the whole program single handedly. Was really looking forward to the Machine learning class until I took it from him. Basically defers to package documentation as a teaching method. Tough grader with vague rubric, so your basically get screwed every assignment. Should be avoided. University probably needs step in.

Do not expect an A in this class, even if you are passionate, have talent, and work hard for it. He is strict with rubrics and project guidelines. Following the rubric is not enough to get top marks in this class. He is a tough grader. His feedback is thorough and he lets you resubmit for partial credit, but that means additional work.

One of the worst professors I've had. Makes all submission criteria purposefully vague, and then berates the submissions for missing key information when it was not specified, to begin with. Condescending, and overall a bad teacher/ grader. Someone needs to teach him how to run a high-level class in a productive way. Would not recommend at all.
