Homework is very important for exams. Be prepared you will be fine.

when you see his name, run! a parrot can teach better than him. My college regression was much deeper than the one offerer here for grads.

Prof Wang is such a nice guy! I've never been an office hours student but both times I went to his he was very kind and totally cleared things up. He does have an accent but his English itself is very good, it doesn't get in the way of understanding lectures and I actually think hes very clear in class. Would definitely take him again

Wang is not a bad professor, but is extremely difficult to understand. Tests are not particularly hard and his midterm is A LOT easier than the final. Go to CLAS and you will be fine. Material starts to get tricky at the end of the quarter but is doable. Does not speak english and notes are not that good, but if you go to CLAS then you can get by

No partial credit on tests. Really hard to understand his accent. Some examples are decent others are just confusing and pointless.

super easy midterm (30% of grade). unreasonably hard final (50% of grade). he does not like to give partial credits in tests. he likes to do a lot of example problems on the board, which is very helpful. overall, a pretty hard class.

Honestly, he's actually a really good professor if you pay attention. I understood everything by just going to class every morning. There's literally no homework for this class and exams are easy. Can't really ask for more.

He's funny, but he is really difficult to understand and sometimes he goes off on tangents. He does a lot of practice problems though and lets you use a notecard for tests, so he was definitely a fair teacher. Ograin was still my favorite math teacher at UCSB so far!

A visiting professor that is difficult to understand and unable to communicate concepts clearly. If you have not taken calc in HS you will have a hard time in his class. CLASS and other tutorials are mandatory if you want to do well. UCSB has a collection of research minded math professors that have no business teaching.

One of my absolute favorite math teachers. Funny and knowledgable. Taking him again in the Spring and I am very excited.

Wang's an interesting one. Really nice and funny Asian guy, though isn't exactly the best at explaining things in lecture. Clas is quite helpful with getting through this class. Section not mandatory, and you get notecards for the midterm and final. Could be much worse off.

He's difficult to understand and writes small but other than that he knows what he's doing
