Approachable and chill if you follow instructions

Retake?Yes
had him for MSYS 21 last sem and would recommend! one of the most approachable and chill profs i've had, you should be just fine
some tips:
- always read the instructions carefully! failure to follow them can result in major deductions in your outputs (we're talking from an A to C+ potentially so take this seriously)
- try to consult with sir arjo at least once for each graded coding exercise/project; there's a comment in this thread stating that deductions can be pretty rigorous which i would agree with. he's happy to help and correct any potential mistakes that will result in deductions so make sure to consult if you're unsure
- in my experience, his slides can get a bit lacking in terms of the comprehensiveness of the functions you're practicing. don't be afraid to consult external sources since they might have info on things like parameters not found in the slides -- just remember to cite them in your code and your certificate of authorship 😃
- try to attend class around ten minutes early especially later in the sem, you'll thank me later 😉more

Tedious code grading but A/B+able, moderate effort

I was his student from MSYS 21 last sem. He was a TBA prof during enlistment. Sir Arjo’s very chill and it was his first time teaching in college last sem so he doesn’t have any reviews yet.
He’s very tedious in grading your code. There are deductions for unnecessary characters. He also doesn’t allow you to use external resources because it’s under “academic dishonesty”. You should only rely on his ppt presentations for most of the exercises and projects.
He was also very accommodating and he replies fast when it comes to consulting your code.
During the latter part of the sem, he gives out 30 points for in-class coding practice and 25 points for early attendance. These points can be added to the exercises portion of your grade.
Lastly, he’s A/B+able with moderate effort 😊 He’s really a great prof and im willing to take his class again!more

Retake?Yes
DONT THINK DONT WAIT DONT DELAY GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO
Alright, now for a more rational answer:
Sir Mejilla is like, one of the nicest profs around. I took him in MSYS 22, however friends of mine said that his MSYS 21 class was also super good too. I can't speak to any specific academic requirements under him (I was under sir Neithan), but friends have said na he mostly has programming projects, with the last project being a group project building off of what you learned/built from your past projects.
I highly recommend his class, he's a pretty good one.more

Hello caveat lang dito for future eyes: The rules on deductions for declaring
Hello caveat lang dito for future eyes:
The rules on deductions for declaring unnecessary characters, variables, functions etc. as well as for using external resources in most activities are department-wide. Most if not all DISCS profs will have this kind of policy for codemore
