Reviews of professor Shailly Nigam

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
She left for a month due to car accident. All 3 classes had a class average of 40. She hasn't tried to make things easier for us. She gave us 5 quizzes to help but it did the opposite.We followed the textbook that we paid over $100 for & she told us that the info in the book was all wrong & we had to come to class & hear her lectures to do well.

You would curse her if you are lazy bones. Attend her lectures, participate in tutorials, go through review videos, solve sample questions (hopefully, she gives them from the beginning next) and you would score great. Teaches brilliantly, understands personal issues of students, helps always,very considerate. Certainly not a people pleaser though.

Chose 2 best of 3 for those who opted for 3rd quiz; contribution, not participation was marked on the basis of declaration made well in initial lectures. Lectures are interesting and she cares for your grades. Being new, may be she wasnt aware of giving sample qs until Mid 2. Gave for final, tested from them and tutorials only. Shes awesome!

Extremely difficult to understand, constantly degrades students (asks for suggestions just to shut them down and pull up their e-mails in class to make fun of them), easily angered, impatient, and difficult marker. Avoid at all costs! Run.

Not very good at instructing material in class, ambiguous on what she is testing you on. Her lectures are extremely boring and she is terrible at giving quizzes (she gives you 4 hours on a random night to do them, one of which was on a Friday.)

She seems rather tough at first but she's all in all a good prof. She's remarkably clear on the concepts that she teaches and is very lenient about quizzes when you have other midterms or assignments due near it. She always responds to emails quickly and knows when the students need a break. Tests can be slightly tricky, but you can still do well.

Great Prof. Just wrote the final. The entire paper was from tutorials and the practice questions! I would love to take her again! And that smile of hers, that says, dont worry, I am there for you always! She is awesome!
