Awful
Professor Fajardo is not very good at teaching. In addition, his test did not match what he taught in class.

Awesome
Mr. Fajardo was undoubtedly one of my favorite professors at SLU. He was always concerned about his students and was lenient with deadlines and grading curves. Many of the other people's reviews surprised me because I've always thought of him as a decent guy. He lectures in a traditional lecture format, and getting an A in his class is relatively easy!
