Disappointing class, right? Thought I would learn about hands-on networking, right? Instead, it was rote memorization from slides and the textbook, right?

I thought that I was going to learn something useful in this class, right?, like networking, maybe? But no, didn't learn anything, right?

Comment:

Dr. Najib Saylani is a great teacher, no one can teach like him.. some students think he is boring because they do not concentrate while he is talking and so the information he tries his best to give them become a boring time for them, I personally advise everybody to take him and just try to follow him you won't regret it... He's also a cool guy!

Comment:

A great professor that wants everyone to do well. The guy literally begs people to come see him for help so he can raise your grades. The material isn't always the most exciting but if you're going to take this class I would hope you have some level of interest in this sort of thing. Saylani is the man!

Sucks this semester....... Spends 6 classes discussing how to convert binary to hex as well as a useless intro etc. However he spends one class on TCP/IP and the OSI model! You will have to learn it on your own.

He's always at his office hours. Always available and up for helping the students. He's not a hard grader. He talks(and talks...)trys to get students to learn, step-by-step learning processes which is helpful for beginners.

This guy sucks, though you will probably do fine. He is smart, though has no idea what he is talking about! I don't think he has ever set up a network!
