6A . Yan Z X 27 Days Ago

2 online midterms and online final. Lectures were directly out of the textbook (literally had it up on the projector) but there was no clear pace/was all over the place. Stopped going to lectures the last few weeks because those 8ams were BRUTAL and wasn't gaining anything. Take for an easy A, go to CLAS if you actually want to learn.

6A . Yan Z X A Month Ago

HW-30%, Midterms(2)-25%, Final-25%,Quizzes-10%, Attendence-10% Lectures were all over the place and & there was no clear pacing/organization. Exams were all online, attendance was not taken (points were given to everyone). Gives extensions pretty easily & is very accessible by email. Take if you want an easy A, avoid if you actually want to learn.

Math113 . Yan Z X A Month Ago

Although he is an intelligent man he is almost neglectful of students. He did not post reviews for any of the 3 tests and stopped having class a week early for review for the final but provided no materials. He then changed the grading criteria after the final on a whim. class wasn't difficult but he sure is.

Math113 . Yan Z X 4 Months Ago

EXTREMELY easy prof. No exam whatsoever. 1 HW per week, with HW answer literally at the end of textbook used in class. I took this class as a fun GE (as a physics major) knowing that he wouldn't add too much to my course load, but if you're a math major that need a rigorous hyperbolic geometry foundation, he is probably not your best choice.

Choose him if you want an A. Online midterm / final. All the notes and lectures are available on canvas.

3B . Yan Z X 6 Months Ago

Wasn't the best professor at teaching but gave exams that were exactly as the practice test making it very easy. I appreciated the easy A but if you want to learn everything fully, might not be the best.

6A . Yan Z X 10 Months Ago

A laughable class: All exams completely online and multiple choice, and even the lectures and notes were uploaded. Impossible to fail and a relief after previous math classes. I rarely went to lecture, but he seems like a super nice guy with lots of office hours. If you really want to master the content and learn every detail, choose someone else.

6A . Yan Z X 10 Months Ago

Such an amazing 6A class. Both midterms and final completely online, weekly quizzes also online (and tell you the correct answers after 1st attempt, even though you get 5 attempts). Doesn't take attendance. He is a confusing lecturer and hard to understand, but I just signed up for CLAS and never went to lecture ever. Got an A+ so easily.

3B . Yan Z X 11 Months Ago

His practice exams are almost exactly like midterm/final except for one or two questions on them. Because of this I was fine with skipping lectures and then just reviewing the material that is on the practice exams. We were allowed front and back cheat sheets for exams and he didn't care what you put on them. It was an easy A if you practiced.

This professor is pretty nice and passionate. The exam is easy if you do the sample midterms carefully. I really recommend this.
