Reviews of professor Yongtao Zhu

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
His lectures were 50-70 slides long, all very detailed. Studying for lab exams was literally like studying for the actual exam because it consisted of both materials. Everything in the slides and lab notes were fair game. He's a nice person and cares for his students, his expectations are just above and beyond. Dedicate time & study everything!!

Dr. Zhu is very nice, however he just reads straight from the lecture slides so you dont really get taught anything that you couldn't teach yourself. The exams are graded on everything that's bolded in the slides which is nice so you aren't studying unnecessary information. There are little to no point/EC opportunities so do good on exams.

This class is very very hard. Expect to study 20+ hours for each exam if you want to pass. He never did extra credit for us, but did curve grades by 2% at the end. Dr.Zhu is a nice guy, I just think this class is extremely hard. This class is mostly tests
