Comment:

Throughout this course, I have had somewhat mixed feelings. Most of the required reading (textbook and scholarly articles) has been informative and rather interesting. However, this professors organization and attention to detail is greatly lacking. Assignment instructions and professor lecture notes are often filled with grammatical errors.

Comment:

He does talk really fast sometimes, but he's happy to slow down and answer questions. He changed his plan for the last couple of weeks to ensure that everyone understood the material. Encouraged students to stop by and ask questions one-on-one. He seems to try really hard to be helpful. He also let us know what he expected before every assignment.

Comment:

Bad professor, does not teach at all. Responsiveness to email is only positive quality. Exams are based on book's test bank and he has the exact same syllabus as other professors for this class, that reeks of laziness to me. You can just buy the book and test bank online, teach yourself, and learn the exact same amount as you will from this class.

If you email him, he will be nice about the responses. There are no evil surprises. I thought he was one of the better ones in the online MBA. I recommend this class, if it's required for you core!

Comment:

I recently took this class and it was the worst class I have taken during my program. There is little direction or clarity with regard to assignments. Instructor values quantity over quality. The group project is time consuming and requires a lot of content which ends up being 25-30 pages. Questions are rarely answered and he gives little feedback.

Amjad is a great guy and willing to grant extensions and make up work. Write him a lot of emails and stop by his office as much as possible. Ask for the extra credit.

Comment:

One of the worst classes I have taken (I have A in all eight class I took so far, except this class). Very poor communication, not clear on requirement, and very hard grader. I never enjoyed his class, and in fact, I can gain better knowledge reading a book on my own. My advice, select other classes instead if possible.

Comment:

Confusing as hell. No direction, questions on the test did not originate from the book or lectures or power points. If u have to take this guy take test with a group, get a group that is good for the project. Type in questions in Google to search for answers. He's horrible do not take him.

Comment:

Everyone is doing horrible in this class-He assigned us a 100 question and only 10% of the chapters that we were assigned to read and study were on that test. He didn't even check to see if the questions were associated with what we had to study. If u want a professor who does not care about his students and will fail u-then he is the one.

Comment:

This guys is terrible, five very long reports with no direction-a 150 questions test that surprised all students because nothing that we were forced to read was on test (average test score 60%) Group are frusterated with each other because they don't know what to do and don't quite understand what part of the group wants to do-Jut don't take him.

Not good at teaching. I recommend taking this course somewhere else and transferring the credit, especially if you are interested in course subject or want to actually learn something.
