Reviews of professor Jin Guo

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
This course has nothing to do with ML. It's just pure software engineering. Not to mention that lots of the SE techniques are outdated. What could you expect from someone who has never worked in the SE industry after all?

If you want to learn ML, avoid this. If you want to be an SDE, Leetcode will do you better than this course.

Class was aight, the exams weren't particularly difficult or out to get you. Most concepts are taught solely around the Java implementation which makes it not that applicable to other languages -- the ideas around them are pretty important universal though. Jin Guo is perfectly nice and helpful, but I still think this course needs to be reworked.

Guo is so far the best 303 prof you can have imo. I did not expect the material to be easy, but she is always happy to help you succeed. I do agree that this course is poorly designed, but it's not her fault.
