i took Linear Algebra with this professor last year. he demands a lot of work. But he is very organized. I managed to turn my incomplete into a decent grade. He is actually caring and fair.

transitioning from high school to college was rough. It is a totally different ball game. Specially in the pandemic. but sitting in this professors lecture was comforting and educating. I did not care for math, but I learned a lot in this class.

In my class he had the biggest section this whole semester and I have to give credit for how well he handled the large amount of students. I never had to wait three years to get our homework and quizzes back unlike other profs here. He gives a lot of homework and quizzed us every week but it helped me understand material much easier.

While the quizzes and homeworks may be a lot, he is really passionate about teaching and really does want to see students succeed. I was not happy at first about taking this class, but he kept my attention with great lectures the whole semester and made it feel worth it.

Shahmohamad will make Discrete Math fun to learn and a class you never forget because of how good it is. He cares a lot for his students, even in an 80-student classroom. Weekly homework and quizzes tend to be heavy but really help when reviewing for exams and finals. He's easy on time for quizzes, just make sure to be ready for them.

Prof. Shahmohamad is legit one of the best and most inspirational professors I've ever had. Even though covid messed up this semester's schedule, he pulled through and taught us everything brilliantly. Lots of free quizzes, hw load is decent; if he teaches any class you need, SIGN UP! He is an absolute legend!

Professor Shahmohamad is a very respectful professor, he is fair as long as you do the work which is required (for this class, a hw and short quiz every week). He does nothing online and all in person so beware of that if that is a problem. Otherwise an overall great professor who makes lectures interesting.

Had his share of 'what the heck' moments. On 'recharge day,' he assigned three EXCESSIVELY long homework sections instead of the usual 1-2 mild sections, and when I say long I mean it took me 6 hours. Also didn't take COVID seriously at all and then got mad when he got reported. BUT, 4 stars because aside from COVID, he was GREAT at teaching.
