Professor Mo is a fair lecturer, but I wouldn't say his lectures are interesting or inspirational. For most of the content, you can learn it from reading the slides. The exams are not bad, but you need to memorize quite a lot of random concepts to get a good grade.Rate My Professors ↗

Dr. Mo is a really nice guy. His class is pretty content-heavy and requires a lot of memorization. He says his tests are multiple-choice/short-answer, but they are actually short-answer/essay w/ 1-2 multiple-choice questions. Every lecture is recorded and available online. He's an understanding guy.Rate My Professors ↗

Lectures are very dense, but Dr. Mo did a good job explaining things slowly and clearly. Yet he can be better at explaining difficult concepts. Exams are straightforward as they focus on big picture. There are virtually no assignments except for some review quizzes. But this class is overall very memorization-heavy. Btw he's also a very nice personRate My Professors ↗
