Reviews of professor Omid Ghasemi-Fare

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
We had group projects and the grading was based on the reports. He and TAs were prepared the video lectures to discuss all the experiments.

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Does answer questions but in condescending tone. Exams are WAAAAYYYY harder than homework. Got 100% on all of the hw assignments but was pulling 50% on the exams. Is not very detail heavy or example heavy. DOES NOT SHOW UNITS ON ANYTHING so you gotta figure it out for yourself. unusually difficult for a geomechanics class.

I had Omid for CEE205. Overall the class concepts are pretty simple, but the exams are a lot harder than the in-class assignments/homework. You take 4 exams and the final. Only 4/5 exams are counted towards your final grade. If you do well on the first 4 exams you don't have to take the final. The third exam was ridiculously hard (37%)
