ECE 230
Quality 5/5Difficulty 2/5
Hate circuits with a passion, but Sarlioglu made it tolerable! Always walking around class wanting to help, I truly believe he wants the best for all of his students! He's also always just like in the best mood, which for me is confusing (again hate circuits), but I appreciate the energy he brings to class.

Professor Sarlioglu is so kind and understanding. He truly wants the best for his students. 230 is one of the hardest classes (a flipped classroom) I've taken but he ended up curving the entire class by a decent amount. You have to attend class and stay really on top of content or it stacks up fast.

Professor Bulent was very knowledgeable about the material and spoke very clearly. Would take a class with this professor again.

Professor Bulent was great he made a great effort teaching the material in lecture and was clearly passionate. The coursework itself was flipped so you had to study before hand a lot but overall pretty achievable.

Quality 4/5Difficulty 2/5
230 is a flipped classroom, but still a solid professor. He is understanding (5 extra minutes on midterms), and describes how to set up circuit problems. The course itself demands a mix of memorization and application, which the professor follows w/ good balance. Occasionally makes mistakes, but nothing more than a sign flip.
