Comment:

If you are good at seeing things in 3D you're fine. If you're not... That sucks. Not available in the labs for help (and will probably make you feel bad about yourself if you dare to ask) or outside of class. Style of class is obviously the main problem here, but the lectures are incredibly useless, especially the solid edge ones.

He's average prof - really smart, but not well-versed in how to get his point across really well

The good thing about this prof is that he draws in class, and this helps you in understanding the process. Is hilarious in his own subtle way.

Comment:

I hated this prof very much. He's probably the most arrogant and unfair prof in first year Engineering. Many years back when I asked him to change the time of my AutoCAD test, he said it would not be fair to your classmates who are facing the same time pressures. He gave me zero on the class assignments multiple times. This prof has no feelings :-(

Comment:

zak has a great accent and is adorable with his jokes. he makes the pretty dull material fun with his jokes. and if you can't draw, then you suck in the labs. but if you can, you get good marks. don't complain, sucky people.
