Reviews of professor Cyrus Aryani

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Tough class but his lectures are amazing. You learn a lot and he does an awesome job at explaining everything to make it as easy as possible. He is a conceptual professor. As long as you can learn things conceptually the math is easy. His exams are tough and he is a tough grader but you have lots of homework and lab points to cushion the blow. haha

Do yourself a favor and take anyone else. I barely passed this class in my last semester. Not worth the stress. He doesn't teach a lick. Don't do the assigned hw problems. Do every other problem in the book and you might have a chance. Tough class with an even tougher professor.

no HW, quiz or any other ways to earn grades. Only exams matter but you still have to attend class. I wish there were assigned HW and at least a bi-weekly quiz to see re-assure my understanding of the material

Had him online. Awesome professor, very inspiring, his jokes are great and he was entertaining. His book is the bible for soils, you need it and it's amazingly written. Do every problem in the book and you'll do perfectly. Simple questions but very conceptual. He is passionate and explains things very clearly. Ask questions, participate, engage.

Really great lecturer and a funny guy. The class is based almost entirely on exams and no homework for grades. The averages for exams were pretty low, but you will do fine as long as you keep up with your studying.
