Reviews of professor Joe Chiu

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Great Class, good teacher. Gets a lot of hate but if you actually show up to class and put in the effort it is an easy A. 4/5 difficulty for a 200 level but if it was a 400 level it would be 2/5.

I hated CS 230. Horrible class.

Overall, I did like Joe has a professor. Like many others have said though, he does have a thick accent that doesn't incline me to take the class again, but he was extremely caring and nice, making jokes throughout class and leaving some time for questions even bringing candy for when the class is over. Great professor, accent is not his fault.

Attendance is optional but weekly quizzes can be difficult if you don't attend, keep in mind he does have heavy accent. Projects are biweekly and I found them to be quite easy with one or two office hour visits. Exams are only 30% of your grade so it easy to do well in class, however the exams are mostly multiple choice thus no partial credit
