While knowledgeable, he's a poor professor. Lectures are unengaging and irrelevant to exams. Exams focus on topics only vaguely related to the course, lacking relevance to homework or classwork. He refuses to provide practice exams, simply telling students to 'read the textbook' for extra problems.Rate My Professors ↗

Prof sujanani was a great professor. When i took the course, attendence at lectures was kind of low but would highly reccomment actually going to lecture. you could tell he read the textbook and he prepared the material in a way that was easy to understand. exams were pretty difficult. I would definately take another class with him.Rate My Professors ↗
Prof Sujanani is one of the best professors I have had at UW Madison, he actually cares about teaching, and I think his lectures are very informative. I would legitimately put him up with djk and B. Blackwell on his teaching ability. His exams are also quite fair, would highly recommend taking him if at all possible 5/5.Rate My Professors ↗
Might be a nice person in general but the lectures are the worst I've ever seen. Lecture notes are not that great either but ok. As a Junior student this professor might be in my top 3 least favorite ive encountered.Rate My Professors ↗
