Quarter: Winter 2018
Grade: A+

Professor Darabi doesn't have the most engaging lectures, but he's a nice professor who's willing to help his students as much as possible. Some of the problems from his homework assignment were either long or really hard (though he received feedback on this receptively), so the TAs are your best friends in giving you hints or even sometimes the solution to a problem. These TAs are few of the best I've had so far, so I would suggest going to their office hours religiously.

His midterm was easy compared to the homework (the average was pretty high), and the difficulty of his final was reasonable. However, this means you should double-check to make sure your answers are correct as one small mistake might hurt your grade a lot. The class also involved some concepts from EE 102 (signals class), which isn't a prerequisite for this class, but it will help a lot on some homework problems and maybe even future tests.

Overall for a lower division class, it requires a lot of work and office hours to obtain a good grade, and even then, I feel like I got lucky with the questions presented on the tests. I'm a CSE and I got an A+, yet this class convinced me to switch fully to CS.

EE 10 really is more complicated than it needs to be. The lectures are boring albeit clear. However the professor is scattered and doesn’t really make a clear distinction between topics. The homework’s are way too long for the amount they contribute to the grade. Also the exams are graded way to harshly. The lazy TAs only give credit for a few key points for each question so if you miss those “milestones” you get essentially zero points. They also do if you miss A you miss B-D too even if the methodology is right. The utter lack of effort by the TAs shows fundanmetal flaws and they will make abysmal professors and further degrade the reputation of Ucla Engineering. Overall this class has eroded any sense of liking circuits which is a real shame. Take this class because it’s required. Oh and if you’re CSE take this as a warning to switch to CS. The extra E in your degree isn’t worth the suffering of this class. Only pro is the curve is good.
