Winter 2016 - This class is a very bad joke that the EE department plays on it's students. 11L is the biggest waste of time per unit, primarily because of the pointlessly long lab reports. Mahmood is worse than a bad TA: heavy accent, unorganized "lectures" and talks at you rather than to you. His quizzes are the most poorly written things I've ever had the displeasure of taking, with typos and vague questions galore. He has the TA's be in charge of lab so I seriously wonder why this man is even getting paid by UCLA. If you do you have the misfortune to take 11L with Mahmood, when it's 4AM the day that lab is due and you're on page 30 of your lab report, just remember that at the end of the day that it's one unit so spend your time on other more important classes.

DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. First of all his examples and problems he does in class are nothing similar to what you see on the midterms and final. To do well in his class you need to understand his material at a level of an electrical engineer. But this is EE for NON-EE majors. It seems easy at first but towards the end he will squeeze in so much material that you will not have time to get comfortable with it before taking the final and then you're $#%!ed. Also really read the book and go to discussion and office hours. DO NOT rely on the lectures alone to teach you the material. He also has an accent. Its not bad but its apparent. do yourself a favor and avoid him in the future.
