Lectures not mandatory & posts them afterwards. Lots of guest speakers. 5 weekly quizzes (4% each). Variable weighting for midterms + final (20% worst 25% middle 35% best). Exams are only on lecture materials. Double sided cheat sheets for midterms and 2 for final. Kinda boring but fair and easy upper div. Prof is super understanding and nice too.

Dr. Yu is a super sweet and awesome professor. The content is very interesting in social neuroscience and history&culture psych. Textbook is not necessary but helpful. Two midterm and a cumulative final covers 80% of grade, 20% for 5 quizs. Tests are easy as long as you review the studies and concepts. Accessing OH and Study Guide are very helpful.

Great professor and pretty chill class. I recommend going to lectures but I missed a lot due to work and was still able to get a good grade! Grade is basically exams and quizzes but your highest exam is worth 35%. Very generous professor and very interesting class!!

yu is a very chill professor with laid back teaching style. his lectures did tend to be a bit dry, but the content itself is super interesting. grading consists of 2 midterms and 1 final, you get a cheat sheet for each (front and back) and 2 for the final, and 5 quizzes based on course material.

Really chill class, found it pretty interesting, gives cheat sheets for midterms which was really helpful

Dr. Yu is probably an overqualified professor for this class!! He really cares about his work, his research, and students, and will truly want the best for all. His study guides are really helpful, and it is truly the amount of effort you are willing to put in, that will affect your outcome from this class. He is so sweet and deserves the best!

Dr. Yu is super sweet. We received 2 cheat sheets for each midterm and 3 sheets for the final. Definitely make your cheat sheets understandable and easy to comprehend. Dr. Yu isn't responsive by email--he never responded to any of mine. I just wish my grade was rounded up to an A-. Overall, the only assignments were about 7 quizzes.

Professor Yu is such a nice professor. You get cheat sheets on the exams and they are pretty straight forward. All the material on exams is from lectures, so reading the textbook is not completely necessary. Overall, a pretty easy and low demanding class.

such a nice class. content is interesting and you get a cheat sheet per midterm and 3 for the final. there are weekly online quizzes. grading is fair. take it

Dr. Yu's class didn't really stand out to me as really great or really bad. I liked how he taught us about different studies and philosophers from China, it gave a personal touch. 2 midterms, one cumulative final, all have cheat sheets. Tests are easy + fair. Homework quizzes every two weeks. Just a mid experience overall.

One of the easiest psych courses + interesting content. Cheat sheets allowed into exams. Easy 20 question (~15 min) exams. Quizzes only slightly harder than exams. Posts slides AND recordings of lecture. Cares about students and takes questions seriously even if they're obvious/irrelevant. You don't need to read textbook, just pay attention.

Dr. Yu is a good professor but the content of this class is super dry. It should be called Social Psychology Research not Social Psychology, all you learn about is studies. He grades fairly and you get a cheat sheet on the exams. Meh class
