Comment:
Materials is a stupid class. But just give him back what he wants and you'll do fine. He really tells you EXACTLY what you should hand in so if you don't do well it's on you. He's accessible and willing to answer questions. His exams are very hard. He has a lot of fun stories. All in all, one of the more memorable professors I've had at MC.

Saukin is a great guy. DO THE HOMEWORK! His exams were very similar to the homework. His final was a little tricky. Take time to actually know the material. He always says that he is testing his students on how much they DON'T know rather than how much they DO know. Your best bet on exams is write down everything you know to receive credit.

Take him for Materials! As long as you got the stuff, you'll be fine ;) Pay attention to when he explains the labs. Might be a bit difficult to hear me. Other than that, always go to ask him questions. Lab reports take time so pace yourself and be ready :)

He is a great professor! Definitely attempt doing the homework before he goes over it! His tests are fair but does throw in some random things in their to trick you! If you want to actually learn then definitely take this professor!

Do the homework you will pass. Lectures are boring, but he does a lot of problems. Tests were not too hard.

Very good instructor. Clear, helpful, and a fair grader. You will learn a lot. If you are struggling, he will do his best to help you out. Also, ignore these comments about "learning nothing and getting a good grade." If you do not put the time and effort into his class, you will not pass.

Comment:
He's a nice guy but he is also the worst teacher I've ever had. He gives out too many handouts that he just mindlessly reads from and tests you on random things from them. If you take him you won't learn a thing but you'll probably get a decent grade.

There's nothing more to say than that he's the absolute best. Take Saukin for any class you can, and your time at MC will be well spent.

What's to say about the guy other than he's the best of the best. The man is a living legend and the most fun you'll have in an engineering class without a doubt. Awesome professor too, he really does make you learn the material inside out.

Saukin in a God. If you go through Manhattan College without taking him, you've missed out on some of the best life lessons you'll ever get.

Comment:
Took him for Environmental I. He is an easy grader and it's very easy to pass his class. The tests are hard! They ask for very specific things that you can find only on one page of one sentence of over 50+ handouts that are half illegible. He curves the tests a good amount but you will invest lots of hours reading and memorizing handouts to study.

Manhattan College runs on Saukin! Best professor ever. If you mind is in engineering during class, you will learn a lot! If not I don't see how He can help you.
