Comment:

Disrespectful and condescending. !!Go to SI EVERY WEEK if you want to pass!! Go to his class too, even though it's worthless; he likes to knock on those who don't come and if you end up needing his help and you haven't been there, he's gonna make you feel bad. I went to every class and he still disrespected me. Good luck if you have to take him.

First review I've ever written... worst math prof I've taken by far. 83.33% of the class (500/600 points) are from tests, where answers are given no partial credit. The material of ad math isn't terrible, but this guy literally gave me no chance to succeed. Half the class dropped it. Don't take Dixit.

Comment:

He is a very good teacher who really understands what he is teaching. He is more than happy to help if you have a question. He can be a bit condescending when you ask him something, but I don't think he realizes it. His tests are very hard (unnecessarily so) and they really require you to think. Overall, he's a nice guy with a passion for physics.

Comment:

Dr. Dixit is very nice and helpful. However, he seems to require students to devote their entire life studying for his class. His tests are extremely difficult but fortunately, he is very willing to provide help outside of class and genuinely cares about his students.

Comment:

Nice fellow in person but not a very good teacher. He tends to rush through the material in class and give confusing examples. At times it is also difficult to understand his accent. Even with diligent studying getting an A is too much trouble than its worth. Go to UMSL for physics and save yourself the trouble.

His class was very difficult. Doing well on tests was near impossible even with a generous curve. He also was way too picky with the grading on projects.

He is a nice teacher in person, but not as much in class. His tests are difficult, but if you do ALL of the practice problems and understand them, you will be fine. Very time consuming

Dr. Dixit is amazingly smart, and he moves a little fast in this course. However, if you are dedicated to doing well and getting an A, you will. Just do every problem he assigns... I know it sounds like a lot, but totally worth the effort.

good teacher, but it is really hard. don't hate on the teacher, just the subject. the rest of those who gave him poor in rating probably failed, so don't listen to them. he is really nice.
