Very good and caring professor. Available outside of class, utilize office hours. Particpation and lecture quizzes (surveys) each week. Like 4 individual assignments and 3 group projects. Just do your best, ask questions, and do the work. You will learn a lot and do well in the class! Prof Tong is very nice!

Be ready to spend multiple hours (even during thanksgiving break) on long participation and individual assignments that can take up most of you day. Jordan is a very nice guy however and is very open to helping out. He is always very pleasant during lectures.

Quite honestly my very favorite professor at UW. Although this class was a challenge for me as Im not good at analytics, it was extremely beneficial and I feel Ill actually use what I learned in class in my future career. He cares about students and their success and understanding of material. Genuinely a great professor and a great class!

I didn't like Tong much in 300, but he's surprisingly fantastic for Operations Analytics! This class is somewhat frustrating when teammates don't pull their weight in tough group projects, but it's also likely the most useful class you will take at WSoB. Tong cares about your learning, and is really helpful in office hours. This class is inspiring.

Lots of interesting group projects. You will work with everyone else in class on group projects. No exams. Exploring data with different tools and methodologies with group small enough to feel intimate. Loved the class.
