Comment:

Prof. Ravindran is one of the better profs I have encountered. He teaches concepts in detail, and always asks for class participation. Encourages you to challenge his ideas so you can understand better. His notes are well written and simple, but exam are straight from both notes and textbook. Overall a very good prof.

Comment:

You cant hear him and he refuses to use a mic. If you don't get to class early enough to sit in the front you're gonna have a hard time learning anything and his accent is hard to understand. He starts teaching right at the beginning of the hour and goes the full 2 hours no breaks. I'm a straight 4.33 student but this prof is one of the worst

Comment:

He's really nice, pretty funny, and explains things well. However, he explains some things into the dirt and glosses over others, possibly screwing yourself over on exams. Read the textbook to go with his class. Otherwise, really nice guy. He's teaching all the other professors that teach MTL, so he knows his stuff

Comment:

He is funny though sometimes the material can get really dry. I suggest going to class to be up to date on the assignments and he gives hints for the tests. If you get your hands on past tests then you are set. Also be sure you can do the assigned questions. If you do the homework expect atleast an A-.

Completely useless prof. Content is fairly easy though, so if you do all the assignments (and questions from the textbook similar to those), you can do well on the tests.

Comment:

Ravi is really hard to understand.. and his notes are awful. Hes a really nice guy though and cares about his students (he even brought candy one day) his test and exams are HARD but he always bellcurves. Make sure you study really hard and don't underestimate how hard his tests are, and if you fail remain calm, everyone else probably did too
