This class was hard. I remember how fucked I felt seeing the 1st homework after not taking circuits for more than a year. The homeworks were challenging and many of the questions came from a very ancient textbook.
The midterm was fair and used the concepts covered in lecture and the homework. However, the final was hard, which sucks since it's 55% of the grade. It covers roughly everything, albeit more emphasized with the newer material after the midterm (even though he said it wasn't lol).
Make sure you attend his 8am lectures. He is a great lecturer, but often times I get lost in the sauce and end up losing him halfway through (would be nice if it was Bruincasted). Even the smallest things he covers will end up being useful in the exams and homework. So take those notes seriously!!!
I went to his office hours a few times, but it was always so damn crowded. Utilize your TA's office hours, especially for the homeworks. They are less crowded and TAs are more sympathetic to your situation haha.
Lastly, apparently he doesn't curve. And if he does, it is not a lot. So take this class as if you were being graded on an absolute scale. You can probably tell from the other reviews in his other classes that he is not the most generous grader.
Good luck to any upcoming students taking him for circuits. It's gonna be a really stressful 10 weeks of nonstop studying, homework, and studying. And did I mention homework?

Moloudi is a very good and clear lecturer. The class is at 8 am and lectures are not recorded + notes are not uploaded. Even though the class is early, it is definitely worth it to attend lecture, especially since his explanations of concepts are often very well done and he makes pretty good analogies. The homeworks are difficult, but doable as long as you put time into them. There are about 6 homeworks + 1 quiz on SPICE(10% of your grade), 1 midterm (35% of your grade), and final (55% of grade). The midterms are pretty tough, with the average being around a 66% and he doesn't curve the class. While the class was really difficult, I think I got a lot out of it and I would definitely recommend taking this class with Moloudi.

Moloudi is easily one of my least favorite professors that I've had at UCLA. His lectures sway back and forth from covering essential material to absolutely pointless, nonsense. He will tell the strangest analogies that do not have any relevance to the class whatsoever. He would constantly walk into class 5 or 6 minutes late and then get made at people who came in right after he did. Would not recommend.

Moloudi is a strict, no BS kinda guy. He's the type to call out people he thinks aren't paying attention or those he knows the names of. He's a good lecturer and has helpful analogies to explain difficult concepts. His homework is KILLER though. (at least I found it to be lol) The exams have some similarities to his previous exams, but they're still difficult. Honestly don't really know how I clutched an A- in this class, but bless the curve I guess? I would definitely recommend creating study groups and keeping up with the material because it's HARD.

* Moloudi is a very clear and straightforward lecturer. His lecturing style involving calling on random students to answer questions. Don't be too alarmed! He tries to help students if they don't know the answer to his question. He has a very...dry way of talking, so he can come off like an asshole, but I don't think it's that deep.
* Tests are fair, have some old test questions, have some homework questions. Best way to study for exams are old tests, lecture exercises, and homework.
* Homework can be tedious. DO NOT TRUST CHEGG ANSWERS. I don't know how many people I've seen scribble down random Chegg answers, but most of the online solutions to the homework are wrong. Just do the work yourself, and I promise you it isn't too terrible once you find the method to the problems.
tldr; He's a clear, incredibly fast-paced lecturer, and his style/personality are not going to be everyone's cup of tea. TAs will probably be easier to ask questions to rather than him because they're usually more approachable. Tests are challenging but fair.

I think Moloudi is a decent lecturer, but it's sometimes difficult to keep up with him especially when you are scrambling to write everything down in lecture. There is a 10 minute break in which he actually is writing on the board the entire time so it's not really a break. I really wish this class was bruincasted as I think it's sometimes difficult to follow. This would allow students who aren't good at keeping up in class the ability to replay at home.

There was one midterm and the average was 70. I did slightly below average. I thought it was relatively fair. Two questions similar to homework, one a bit more difficult, and the last one was hard.

The final was extremely stressful to study for as Moloudi told us that everything would be covered on the final when in fact it was only post-midterm stuff. Last bit of material was a bit crammed. It seems like Moloudi really wants students to actually use their brains when approaching this class. He is that kind of professor. Kind of a dick sometimes because he really wants everyone to know their shit. He also says there is no curve, but I highly doubt this is the case as too many people would get D's and F's. The final overall was extremely difficult and everyone I was studying with pretty much thought they failed. Still haven't received our grades in this class yet, but I'm expecting around a C+ assuming I do a little below average again.

My advice to you in this class is to start the homework early and go to TA office hours and professor's office hours....there are some problems which can be quite tricky. Also, if you want to ace the class, make sure you go to every lecture and review the notes after every lecture. He really does test from his lectures. There may be a problem or two which takes concepts from lecture.
