    "comment": "Marko was not a great instructor and made the material overly complicated. Exams required quite a stretch of your knowledge with weird word problems and prompts. Exams were hard to study for because lectures were not organized and the review problems he provided never came with solutions. Too many exams for amount of material covered.",

I completely understood the topics that he taught and said that would be on the tests, but then he just twists it and makes the tests literally impossible. I am a very good student and I did not get over a D on any of his tests. If you care about your GPA, don't take this class with Marko..",

I once asked a question of him, and he laughed in my face that I did not know the answer to it. His written homework assignments are the hardest math problems I've completed in my life and not relevant to class.",

He is incredibly smart but makes even the simplest concepts impossible to understand because he isn't able to dumb it down for the class to understand. I would not take agin.",
