CMSC388A Expecting an A Anonymous 01/17/2025 |
The class is very unorganized. He has had trouble uploading lecture videos to Panopto, so by the time each exercise or project is released, you often don’t have access to the videos explaining the concepts necessary to complete the coursework. I found myself learning all of the course content from the lecture slides and code examples that were posted in advance each week via git, so I can’t speak to the teaching quality of the videos that were posted. On the bright side, Andrej is very active on Piazza, responsive to students’ questions about project requirements, and quickly communicates technical issues related to the class or project deadline extensions as they occur. If you have prior experience with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (for 388A) or JavaScript, Node.js, and REST API development (for 388B), I recommend taking this class. The content should not be difficult, the slides and code examples are thorough enough to learn everything on your own, and the exercises and projects are very useful/practical with clearly documented requirements. If you don’t have prior experience and want to learn the content from scratch, I recommend taking the classes with a different professor. |

CMSC335 Expecting an A+ Anonymous 06/22/2024 |
This professor is insanely disorganized and very very very bad at teaching. He uses Nelson's material, which is fine but the issue is that he does not prepare at all. It felt like he did not know any web-dev. He is very unprepared during lectures and just reads what's written in the slides. When a student is paying nearly $5000 for one course, the least he can do is read the material before presenting it. DO NOT TAKE CMSC-335 with him. |

Really chill professor, goes over material really well. Open to questions and highly encourages students to participate in class. Projects are chill for the most part, the midterm was pretty hard but the final was much easier. Highly recommend 389N with Andrej. |
