Comment:

Professor Mohammed is a good professor. I had taken this class in the past but still struggled to understand some of his teaching. He also has a very thick accent that can be intimidating at first, but you will eventually get used to it. He also has very good handwriting!

Comment:

Before his class I had never had a class where I felt like I was struggling just because of the professor, but this was the case here. He is very intelligent but is mediocre at best when it comes to getting the lessons across in an understandable way. Along with this, his accent is very thick and he talks into the board so he is difficult to hear.

Comment:

Professor Mohammed tries his best and is clearly a very smart man, but he struggles to transfer this knowledge to students. The class was confusing and I wasn't always sure what was expected of me. There were also many moments in which I was made to feel stupid.

Comment:

didn't give information about the textbook or needing an access code to be able to do work for the course, uses incorrect grammar, didn't give syllabus or due dates until two days into the course and there was a homework assignment due that day. two homework assignments and a quiz a week (you get 36 hours each to do them and no extensions)

Comment:

Genuine individual & he has neat handwriting (which is always plus haha). Also, he only gives 2 larger tests throughout the duration of the semester/doesn't necessarily give "weekly" homework. Tends to be lecture heavy, but he is always willing to help/meet one on one. He does have an accent, but you can understand him completely.

He's a great professor! The homework may seem like a lot sometimes but it is very helpful so do it!! He's very understanding and willing to help when needed. He works through plenty of examples on each topic in class, which we all know is important in math. He is always very clear and precise, and always willing to take questions.

Comment:

This professor was easily one of the worst I have had in 5 years at this University. Class is tough, he is not clear when he teaches, gives few examples, and expects students to know things from classes that are not prerequisites to the one you are in. AVOID!

Comment:

Take calc3 before this class. Content is not too hard. Do the homework and study it. The text book sucks. Recommend the solution manual. If he gives a study guide, the test is very similar, sometimes with the same problems. He is a genuine, nice professor. I had him for MATH 311 as well. Sometimes offers extra credit. Class is already curved.

Comment:

Mohammed was a very straight forward teacher. Many of his lectures are tough to sit through, but it makes them interesting sometimes with his humor. Make sure you attend class though because 80 out of the 400 points are for attendence. You can skip 3, but after that you lose 8 points every time. Lots of homework but its worth a grade. Good class!

Dr. Mohammed is a great teacher. His lectures are well organized and has the best handwriting I have ever seen. I would take more classes from him. Class attendance is a must, and quizzes are a little difficult. Don't miss classes.

Comment:

He is one of the best professors I have ever been taught by. Though he is tough in grading, its easy to get good grade just by following his class lectures and doing the homeworks. He is very friendly and helpful. His lectures are sophisticated. 100% prepared all the time. I have never seen him to make any kind of mistake and very confident

Comment:

This guy is aggravating! UNREASONABLY strict with attendance and behavior, writes so much on the board and goes so fast that you can't tell what is/is not important. Midterm and final are okay. Calls on you if he thinks you're not listening or if you look at him. Gives short MC quizzes that are hard to do well and no partial credit! I'd avoid!

Comment:

Great guy! Indian accent is easy to understand. Grade came from 8 hmwks, a midterm, and a final. Hmwk is difficult and tests are a little easier. Has incredibly neat and organized boardwork! However, attendance IS mandatory, and he doesn't like it when you leave in the middle of class at all or come in late! Helpful and pleasant beyond class!

Dr. Mohammed is an incredibly great professor. I wish all maths professors at Ball State were nearly as good. He provided very clear explanations and I like math better because of him.

he is a good teacher, but he is very hard to understand. he has a HEAVY indian accent and since it's math, it gets very confusing at times. he also goes very fast. in my opinion i would suggest getting a different professor.

He is very good at teaching and provides a lot of examples. He can get really boring sometimes because he repeats himself, but it makes it easy to remember the material for tests. The tests are usually pretty easy if you study.

Dr Mohammed is a gifted teacher. His board work is well organized and his lectured are carefully prepared. He starts each class with a brief summary of the previous lesson. His tests could be difficult but gives practice problems. Attendance is mandatory.
