My grade was a 35% at the end of the semester and somehow the curve put me at a C+. No class needed. A+ review will be your only lifeline

Comment:
The lectures can be dry but Song honestly is a funny guy and he always encourages his students to ask questions. Three exams and three-four homeworks make up your grade. You have to put in the work to pass the class. Not an easy class but none of the FIN 325 professors are easy.

He means well but the lectures can be dry. 3 mid-terms (no final), 3-4 homework assignments and that is all. Show up to class to get on his good side.

Comment:
He usually read through the power point directly and have some lecture on the paper if he needs to explain more in detail. Recommending on printing his power point out to follow easier. The content is more on the calculation. He gave some extra credit project and not require to be in the class.

Horrible professor. He is not clear. He means well but cannot teach to save his life. There is no study guide and anything on his power point is fair game (there is a lot on his power point). Avoid!

Not a good teacher at all. Very long, boring lectures and difficult to understand. Reads straight from power points. When anyone asks questions he acts as if it's a dumb question to ask and that we should understand everything. He will not help you on homework assignments.

Comment:
Song's class isn't horrible, it's just difficult and he teaches it like a graduate-level course. A+ review definitely helps but it's much better to know the material ON YOUR OWN and then "review" with A+. Exams are difficult but are based off of homework and lecture. Textbook problems are not that relevant so don't spend a lot of time on them.

Comment:
Horrible class with an equally horrible teacher. Doesn't know how to communicate with his students appropriately, mocks anyone who asks a question that HE thinks has an obvious answer. A+ is the only way to pass this class. Going to class is almost pointless but he notices who attends. Very smart but doesn't know how to teacher to save his life.

Song likes to make things very confusing. Got a D-, but should have had a much better grade. Half of your midterms and final are pointless FACTOIDS!

He's actually not that bad. A+ is right on the money for this class BUT do all of his hw because that's whats on the exams except the numbers are different. He's a really nice guy. Also theres a nice curve. Attendance helps because he remembers faces.

Comment:
I was prepared for the worst. Turns out, he wasn't that bad. Although it's hard to stay awake in class, it's worth it to go. He's pretty clear on what he expects from you. Read the book, and then listen to his lecture, because it'll help you follow along. A+ review helped me some, but I think smart kids can get by without it. He's not bad at all.

Really hard to understand, took me 4 weeks to get the hang of his accent and I still miss a lot of what he says. He's a nice guy but he doesn't know how to teach or how to deal with students. The first hw he showed us how to get the answer but showed us the wrong way so marked us all down. Beware of this guy!

8-week summer class. Prof. Song not a good teacher. He's bad in communication. His English hard to follow. He didnt use Blackboard. Hard to know where u stand in class. He just read the slides so you better teach urself. Read book & do problems as much as u can. Attendance 10%, HW 10%, Mid 40%, Final 40%. Only topics coved in class are in exams.

just because you know the subject inside out, does not give you the right to ridicule others when they ask you questions.

Moon is the man! Class is extremely difficult however. study the power point slides and go to class!! Do the HW! def helps your grade in the end. Buy the book/or study guide. Don't stress people! Moon tries to be a hard guy, but really is a softy. All these people who complain just don't know what's good! This is upper div! Ended up w a B.

This teacher is AWFUL!!!! He cannot speak a sentence in English properly so it is really hard to understand him. His tests are ridiculous! I would just read the book and do the practice questions because his lectures are based from the power points taken from the book. Good luck this semester if you were unfortunate enough to get him.

I will save you all some trouble. Just read the textbook inside and out and that's it. Lectures are based on the slides provided by book and test questions come the books test bank. I only went to class to be polite. Grade is based on 3 tests and homework. Tests are virtually impossible, MC with 5 choices. Graded curve is what saved me.
