Fall 2017 - Mehta has a knack for complicating things that are simple. From his homework to his tests to his labs, it was very hard to make sense of anything. His examples during lecture don't make very much sense, and he doesn't give us any resources to adapt to his question-making style. This class was the most painful and time-consuming class I've taken at UCLA.

Winter 2022 - I thought this course was fair. It's true that the projects were very long and can take hours and that the professor was a little degrading on Piazza. I feel like he got frustrated when students didn't come to or watch lectures and then asked questions online that were already addressed in the lectures. (During lecture he is much more receptive to students' questions.) I don't agree with his behavior but I can understand why he acted that way. However, the professor did provide opportunities for students to improve their grades. He allowed students to resubmit projects (including the final) for a chance to receive a better grade and gave everyone a week to do it even after spring quarter started. Additionally the late day policy with 8 free late days was much appreciated and helped lessen the workload for the projects. Going to discussion was also very helpful and helped me understand some of the content that I didn't quite get in lecture. It definitely helped me out on the quizzes. Overall, this course was difficult but can be done if you put in a lot of work.
