best 3b professor. hw was difficult sometimes but you have unlimited attempts and his tests were exactly like the practice + easier than the hw problems. he also lets you make a cheat sheet for every exam. the lectures were pretty boring but he does practice problems which are helpful. also an overall laidback and funny guy.

Awesome Prof. Very rare to see such clear cut grading criteria - be ready for no curve, though IMO not needed as long as effort is put in. No surprises on exams; amazing, READABLE, AND UNDERSTANDABLE lecture notes, light homework. Also overall great guy, loves chatting in office hours about non-class topics in data science/ math.

You NEED to take Yan for 3B. Attendance isn't mandatory and his quizzes, midterms, finals are incredibly easy and he basically tells you everything that will be on it the lecture before. Frequently asks for questions and goes sooo slow. Much easier than other 3B profs and an easy A if you took AP Calc or any math class before tbh. THANK YOU YAN

(For Math 8) Very awesome professor! Was passionate about the subject and was a great professor overall. He really made me intrigued with proofs and whatnot, helping lay down the foundations to mathematical proofs and such. Would definitely take him again. 35% midterms, 35% homework, 30% final.

Great professor, homework can be extensive but tests are extremely easy. He provides ample examples in class similar to the questions seen on exams, just show up to the lectures, do the homework and you'll get a good grade.

Amazing professor who grades easy on exams and his lectures are good. Professor Yan is lenient on grading and also allows a cheat sheet on exams. Just do your homework and pay attention, and you should get the grade you want in the class.

Best math prof I have ever had. The lectures are always pretty clear and before every midterm he goes over everything that will be on it. All exams are pretty easy, homework can get difficult but you have unlimited chances and hw is weighted pretty heavily so definitely take all those chances. I would 100% take again thanks Yan
