Reviews of professor Ahmed El-Gendy

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
"attendance is mandatory" but he takes attendance by little quizzes he does in the middle of class which also get used as bonus points on the exams so?? just show up. The exams are a mix of his review& hw, so if you know how to solve the hw then you should be good in the exam, he does curve a bit. Final exam is a mix of review, previous exams & hw

I am an education major and i was scared about this class. It is not as hard as I thought. Professor El-gendy is very knowledgeable about the topic. Class is interesting and very applied. Over all a good class.

Dr. El-Gendy is an amazing professor! I had the chance to take his class in the spring (it was online), and I was going through a rough time since I lost a loved one. He understood and told me to take a break if needed. If you are going through a rough time, just email him and he will work for you. He cares about his students.

If you are considering to go in his laboratory for a research opportunity, better think twice.
He does not know what the hell he is doing. Has zero knowledge on how the experiments are performed. His attitude causes conflict with every single student that has worked for him.


Get ready to be overworked, underpaid and abused.

I went to him to gain some experience in research as an undegrad and all I can tell you is run for your life. The graduate students are all over the place assisting and training undergrads because of his poor organization. I did not learn anything and he never showed up to the lab.

He gives extra credit, but you don't know your grade till mid-semester.

Do not recommend. Grading was not fair. Attendance is basically not mandatory because he gives credit to students who do not show up because he doesn't keep CORRECT track. Also only knows a bit(when you ask questions he becomes confused about his own work). If you care about your GPA don't take this class, because you wont be graded fairly.

Dr. elgendy delivered his lectures in a clear way. This class was applied and dr elgendy made the class easy to understand. I am not very good at math or physics and I was glad this class was not very numerical.
