## Student reviews

10 of 10 reviews by students who took the course. Any review carried over from
elsewhere is marked with its source on its own line.

- **4/5 · 2022-03** — Taking EECE 290 together with MATH 218 and one elective in the summer session is considered doable and even easy.

- **5/5 · 2021-11** — For EECE 290, students pick Rabih Jabr over Sami Karaki and Karim Kabalan without hesitation.

- **4/5 · 2023-01** — Karim Kabalan sets easier EECE 290 exams than the other instructors and his explanations are fair, though some students do not enjoy his classes.

- **2020-08** — Professor very good. Course a continuation of EECE 210 so eece 210 knowledge required. Course has very interesting circuit analysis topics and requires constant practice

- **2020-04** — his explanation is good try just not to make him hate you

- **2020-04** — Great instructor. Medium workload in general

- **2020-04** — Best instructor for the course. Light workload

- **2020-04** — I recommend this instructor for the course. Great explanation and fair grades

- **2019-11** — Sabah: explains very nice and clearly, class average is high Shahwan: the same whether you attend the class or not. You will need to study the course alone.

- **2019-08** — The course is a continuation of the ECE 210. However, topics are slightly more challenging. All professors are great, but Sabah's format has a heavier workload, but is more rewarding. If you choose not to register with the latter, you will end up with me in the solving sessions, where I will stress to you how important problem solving is.
