Comment:

His notes are everywhere, they are not helpful, and you would probably be better off just reading the textbook page to page, all tests are online but take a good chunk of time to do them. Don't take a second class with him in 1 semester because you will be taking 2 online tests the same day, in the same amount as1.Would not recommend taking a class

Comment:

Probably one of the hardest courses I've taken for my CSIT degree. His notes were all over and didn't always make sense. Asking questions is the only way you'll be able to comprehend what he's saying. Wouldn't recommend this course to anyone.

Comment:

CSIT 351 with him is one of the hardest classes I've ever taken. He definitely didn't make it easy or anywhere close to easy. Pay attention in class. He does repeat questions between assignments and his 251 class so keep all your previous work. The final took me about 13 hours to complete and the other tests were around there as well.

Comment:

He requires you to do a lot of hard work, but honestly- the work he makes you do is beneficial to you & only you. It's not some B.S. class where you do a little work and squeeze by. You will truly learn things in this class, and completing the work on time makes him love you! I definitely recommend him, fantastic professor.

For your mental health, stay away from his classes. If you do get stuck in them, keep all your old work, he copies questions between classes.

Comment:

I took his online 251 class. It was a lot of work (but what jterm class isnt) and very challenging but Dr. Siddiqui is a very nice man and if you try hard he will give you a fair grade. He was also put up with my 5 emails a day so he's very patient

Always helpful in advising and explaining material. Although he has a accent it is understandable. A good experience and I will look to take another course with him in the future.

Comment:

I took an online class with him, and I think it's easier to handle than an actual lecture because I have a tough time understanding accents and his is rather strong. But he does encourage students to do well, even if he is a bit intimidating to me because he's the head of the department. He really means well, ask him for help and youll be surprised

Comment:

Intro to Comp. Sci. Accent is very hard to understand. If math is not your strong point, recommend you find another class to take. Course is based on outdated information (think EARLY computer science). Was not very helpful to struggling students (myself and others included).

Comment:

Twas an online course, and the assignments were confusing. IO asked another Comp. Sci. Professor what Prof. Siddiqui wanted from some questions, and they were baffled, too. Professor Siddiqui consistently failed to respond to my emails. Therefore, he didn't answer my questions, or respond to my inquiries about when I could see him in his office.

Very difficult course, to make matters worse it was online course. Khalid was not even in the country, so it was very difficult to get answers or help. Dr. Ehrlich however volunteered to teah the course locally (classroom) (her specialty is AI) but was t

Course would have been a cinch if not for a proffessor who barely speaks the english language. This guy should be programming for a computer company, not teaching at a college.

Very difficult to understand. Relys on books too much. Talks to the chalkboard. Concerned more with departmental politics as opposed to teaching. Got almost nothing out of the classes he taught despite what I put into them.
