Comment:

Dr. Yang is soooooo nice!! He gives me a wonderful memory when I am studying at MAC. His tests are straightforward. He makes me want to study further in biochemistry area. His class is funny because he always laughs. The tests for this course is MCs only but you need to pay attention for the questions. you will be get a 12 if you work hard.

Comment:

Dr. Yang is one of the best prof who I had during my university. During his class, he is a funny guy and helpful. His test is fairly easy and he gives you a lot of tips. But textbook is also a useful resource if you want to know more information.

Comment:

Be very, very careful of his test questions. Sometimes, he'll change one or two words when you least expect it. Have to go to lectures now because he might talk about something he briefly mentioned on the test. I read the textbook to pass this course. Don't bother fighting for lost marks.

I wasn't too fond of his teaching style so I would skip class and read the textbook instead. Still did rather well in his course.

Comment:

Dr. Yang is a nice professor and the class is very useful. However, the textbook is totally useless and lectures are a waste of time. Go to tutorials, learn the process of doing questions, and practice all of the old tests you can get. Make sure to get old tests before you attempt this class.

Tests were fair, and if not he adjusted the marks accordingly. Ask him questions outside of/after class, he gives very good explanations of concepts.

Comment:

1st day told us not to come to class. probably because he knew he'd be wasting our time anyway. doesn't teach you anything. sits down on the desk and talks for 50 minutes. if you want an A just get as many old tests as possible and memorize all the answers .. he's been asking the same questions for the last 5 years

Comment:

a 3rd year class and we should be takin more initiative. be ready to teach yourself! Why pay tuition, why not just buy the text and show up for tests. He is useless, unprepared, has no notes,and if u have a question he'll tell u to look in the text.

funny, like a clown, he makes you laugh, but he's NOT there to amuse you (rent Goodfellas or take one of his tests like the other guy said and you'll remember this review all too well).
