Reviews of professor Sogol Jahanbekam

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Pretty awesome professor. She knows what she is talking about and is always willing to give more examples and explain in depth. There are assignments every other week and three midterms and the lowest score is dropped.

She's a strong communicator and is really responsive to the needs of the class. Homeworks are similar to exams, gives practice exams which prepare you well for actual exams. The class was lecture-heavy, but she lets you skip the final if you score >95% on all three exams, so it's a worthwhile tradeoff to avoid an extra headache come finals.

She is a tough grader. She expects beyond what she teaches in her lectures for her homework solutions. I had to always clarify homework questions with her since she can be confusing on how she wants her answers.

I had my MATH179 and 177 with Prof. Jahan. She is awesome. She does examples step by step during lectures, with clear handwriting and good explanation. Don't miss class, if u do, ask classmates for notes, her every single class is solid and you will learn new stuff. If u study well and listen to the lecture this class should be an easy A.
