    Quarter Taken: Spring 2022 In-Person
    Grade: A

    This 151B class was delivered completely by Prof. Jeong's hand-written notes. He did explain everything well, but just seem a little bit not engaging. The material numerical methods itself is not difficult. Making sure you understands every concept during the class will guarantee you a good mark. Midterms and final are not hard. Do the practice and think a little bit. You will be fine. Overall, not very much challenging. There are matlab assignments, but you can always rewrite the code he give for the assignment. And Prof. Jeong is willing to help. Would recommend taking this class with Prof. Jeong.
