<p>^ Wow, story of last semester. A new professor was teaching and no one had any idea about his exam patterns. The guy went crazy and assigned us problems he came across in his career. Imagine what kinda of exam a phd with 35 years of circuit design experience will make. It was a bad course for me( in terms of grade) although I did learn a lot. </p>
<p>This semester, the first midterm had an average of 61 compared to 23 when I was taking it! Why? because most of his material is now spread around and the new students have a better idea of what to expect. Those who failed the first time are retaking the class this semester and they too are helping by sharing their previous quizzes/homeworks. I dont know if the system of education is to blame or the department/professor. Any changes now won’t matter anyway, I’m not getting a better grade.</p>
