Reviews of professor Yen Jim Kuo

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
To be honest, this professor is the first one who explains problems very clear. Although English is not my native language, actually I can understand every concept he explains. I cannot deny that Fluid Mech. is not one of the easiest subjects, but Jim Kuo knows his job. If you want to learn, take him.

He was honestly one of the worst fluids professor's I've taken. Very blunt and no remorse for struggling students. His exams are difficult and good luck asking if you are heading for the right direction because he won't tell you directly. Very monotone and gets offended over small things like discussion confusion. Overall ,avoid him please.

His lectures are immaculate. Absolutely crystal clear. I suggest this professor to many who have trouble understanding textbook readings like I do. Just beware of his midterm and final. He will say they are the same as the Homework but they are not at all. Half the class did poor but he refuses to acknowledge that his exam might have been confusing

Great professor, tough material, but I actually felt like I learned a lot from his class. His exams are both easy and difficult, if that makes sense. The math is basic and simple, but his exams are heavily based on the theory. Genuinely have to understand the material to do well on the exams, memorizing steps to solve a problem will not help
