CollegeThe lectures are clear and at a good pace if you want to make notes. Professor Yang Yang is very clear about what the exams entail and the grading is very fair. The final was a lot easier than the breadth of the content of the course indicated.
I wasn't really a fan of his class but the TAs made it so hard. They sometimes struggled to answers some of the questions and grade really weird. Prof. Yang is a really nice person. He has his own notes that he made using textbook examples. The curve at the end was fat and basically everyone in my class passed.
Very good lectures, tests were easy as long as you keep up with the textbook. Truly a great guy who really cares about his students.
Great professor! Questions so trivial I do in sleep.
