Ticknor's lectures were heavy- attending class made all of the difference. He's a great lecturer and his 35+ years of industry experience proves it. He ties in concepts from class to real-world experiences he's had. As solid of a lecturer he is, the slide decks are a complete mess. Exams are multiple choice and challenging but curved significantly.Rate My Professors ↗
I have a 73% in this class and I have an AB. Not sure if he is a bad professor or not because the curve is so absurd in this class.Rate My Professors ↗
I NEVER met such professor like him. He never uploaded correct answers of assignments/exams on canvas. You should never miss every class because he always say things that get you points related to assignments and exams. Even you obtain the right answers if you don't use the method he told in class, you will loss your points. He talks very quickly.Rate My Professors ↗
