Comment:
There's hw, project, tests and lots of extra credit. DO the extra credit. I definitely think his final was the easiest exam. His lectures don't cover all types of hw problems. Do the hw in advance to ask him how to set up the problems. Be sure to constantly rewatch his lectures. You'll be okay!

I am surprised he has low ratings! This is class is difficult and you have to do your part in passing. Every exam only covers two chapters. ATTEND LECTURE that is your time to ask anything! he will gladly go over any step! if you want to pass his class DO YOUR PART. He has great templates and lets you know EXACTLY what to expect on the exam!!

361B Analytical skills for success, choose wisely! Gupta only lectures half way through topics. HW is harder than lectures. Exams are very difficult, you will be blind sided because he doesn't review what assigns. Extremely low class AVG, gives EC. knows his stuff, lacks passion to teach. Not your mentor! study BEFORE lecture, come with questions!

Comment:
Do not take this professor. He is not helpful and homework/lectures do not match the exam. Does not give a study guide before exams. Very unorganized, rude and vague when responding. Makes students feel like they should already know the subject and sounds annoyed when you ask questions. Do not take the course with this professor.

Comment:
One of the most boring classes I have ever taken. This professor gives dry lectures and is hard to understand. Show up to class for extra credit pop quizzes. Homework is ridiculous because there are limited attempts. How are we supposed to learn if we are under pressure of trying to get the right answer? Anyways, I don't recommend.

Comment:
His lectures are very dull and he seems so uninterested. No clarity on exams, and no study guides. 1 Page cheat sheet and allows ppts to be used during exams. His lectures do not seem to be similar to the exams or even the hw. Super dry professor. Takes a long time to give grades. 2 midterm, final, project, and hw/ quiz points on cengage

Comment:
Gupta teaches a very dry lecture and is not helpful at all. I, by no circumstance would not recommend taking his course. It is very obvious that he doesn't care and give the least amount of effort in his course. You essentially need to teach yourself the course. DO NOT TAKE GUPTA

The only reason I'm giving him two stars instead of one is because it was en easy class with extra credit. Otherwise, I did not like his teaching style or mannerisms. He was hard to understand and didn't care to explain problems we were struggling with. He didn't really care if we got it or not - he just wanted to get through the semester.

DO NOT TAKE HIM. He does not explain problems, and cannot fathom that students need explanations. NOT approachable either. Our class had to basically mutiny on him to get him to explain a problem. AWFUL professor.

Comment:
TERRIBLE! Do not take him. He has such a heavy accent its nearly impossible to understand a word he is saying. He goes over 1 problem and expects you to understand it the first time. Gets angry when you ask questions and is not approachable at all. 3 exams, 1 group project, hw, and pop quizzes. Class is hard and makes it even harder with his accent

Comment:
Hard to understand because he can be a bit quiet and has a heavy accent, but goes very slow and explains questions well. If you show up, pay attention, take good notes, the class should be an easy B. Grade based on two exams and a final. Gives plenty of practice problems, but no comprehensive study guide.

HORRIBLE. Lectures are super slow. He doesn't care about his students. If you go to his office hrs GOOD LUCK! During lectures there were times the STUDENTS had to show him how to do excel. DON'T TAKE HIM unless you're already good at this stuff. You will have to teach yourself otherwise.

I liked Prem, I loved Excel. His lectures were strictly reading off the Powerpoint. Class was easy as long as you learn how to use the templates he teaches in class. It is rather challenging if you miss class I'd say because you'd have to teach yourself the steps. 5 or 6 extra credit pop quizzes, Powerpoints usage ALLOWED on exam! I know, right?!?!

Easy B if you just show up some days and do nothing but passively participate. Easy A if you show up most days and actively participate. Common sense, no nonsense type of teaching. So use your brain wisely. But realistic and practical enough to prepare you for a future job in the tech sector after graduation.

Do not take him. He is the worse professor! He says he'll give you extra credit then come sup with some stupid excuse not to give it to you! I took an option personal based survey and then he says my answers are not valid so he didn't give me my points. He can't not teach and he gave a hand full of students dirty looks for no reason He doesn't help

If you're decent in working with Microsoft Excel, you should pass this class easily. Go to all classes even though attendance is not mandatory. Follow along with all the in-class excel examples, and save them to review later for exams. You will pass this class by putting in almost no effort at all. Gives quizzes, but they count only as extra credit

This class is already difficult and having this professor will make it even more difficult. He gives extra credit quizzes in class but you don't get the extra credit (2%) unless you get a total of certain amount of points at the end of the semester. 3 exams non-cummaltive. Going to class is important and he gets mad when you ask questions.

There are 2 midterms and 1 final. He did curve one of the midterms because the class did pretty badly. He also offers 3% extra credit. His explanations were a bit unclear, but as long as you follow his steps and practice before the exams, you should be good. Attendance is not mandatory, however I would HIGHLY recommend going to class for examples.

Hardest class of my college career. I barely passed with a 70%. Fortunately, + and - do not count. Don't take him. Take anybody else you can. He is the worst ever. Attend class otherwise you won't know how to solve the problems. Definitely buy the book and make extra good cheat sheets.
