A professor that yells at you for falling asleep in class, or pause the lecture and just stare at you when you're even like 2 minutes late.
His teachings are yes, pretty good. I understood more about diodes and transistors than ever. But ohyy when comes to grades, he is the same as Abidi. Very unfair distribution and very stingy with grades. An average student (ranked 50% in the class) should expect around a C- (maybe even a C). Very impossible to get an A.
As others have said, Professor Moloudi is a great professor if not the best I've had at UCLA. He explains concepts very well and he tries to make sure everyone understands a concept before moving on. As a teacher I give him an A.
Now as a test giver he is extremely stingy, barely giving any partial credit. In addition, I do not understand why he does not allow calculator on the exams. For example, the final had some pretty tedious and ugly calculations. However, I believe his exams were for the most part extremely fair. I mean if you went to class, did your homework, and understood all the concepts covered in class then the exams are very straight forward. However, I feel that on the final exam I probably lost a lot of points not because I did not know what I was doing but rather because I did not get the final answer in the sense that I was unable to do the tedious calculations. So if the final was graded anything like the midterm I probably got like 2/30 points even though I was doing all the rights step, I just didn't arrive at the answer he wanted.
This takes me to how he distributed the final grade. I did, in my opinion, pretty decent in his class given that I bombed his midterm. I was ranked near 50 percentile but for some reason he gave me a C-. For any other class this would have been a B or B-. He is very very stingy with grades.
