Reviews of professor Yen Jim Kuo

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Kuo is a a good guy and a phenomenal professor. He does an excellent job of taking complicated subjects and simplifying them for easy consumption. He's a fan of projects that take a lot of work, but they're very good at teaching you the material. His tests draw on homework questions, do don't skip it. I cannot recommend his classes highly enough.

Dr. Kuo is a new face with great stories. He is from Canada, where people are generally nice. You can tell from his Homeless/Hobo stories, that his ridiculously nice (perhaps default Canadian) personality is tested by how he has been approached by Hobos. His heat transfer is hard, but the tests are just the homework problems.

He explains the concepts incredibly well. You actually leave the class feeling like you learned about the concepts of heat transfer. His tests this year were very fair, they were just reworked hw questions. Hw is optional but if you dont do it then you probably wont pass the exams. Would take again just for the fact that I felt like I truly learned

He is a great teacher but don't let the homework fool you. They could be easy to do but the midterms are a tad bit harder. You gotta study otherwise getting a good grade is not going to happen. You actually need to understand your concepts and make sure units make up! He grades harsh especially if you miss units!

First day of class he said "Most of you are going to fail" and most people did. Save yourself the trouble and just take someone else.
