About this rating

Raw average: 3.87/5 from 15 quality ratings. The adjusted rating blends this with the UW review average (3.66/5), weighted as 20 additional ratings. Smaller samples stay closer to that average. Each captured review is counted once in the prior; this does not correct who chooses to leave a review.

Jun is a good professor. I totally disagree with some of the poor ratings. I appreciate his help throughout the semester. I was close to an AB but he did reward hard working. I learnt a lot not from his knowledge of Stochastic Processes, but also his knowledge of life in general. Recommended this course but be ready to work hard.

materials are hard and the curve is very weird. if your final score is between 84 60 you get a B. 8590 get AB and 90+ get A

You don't need to be good at math to get at least an AB in his class. Curve very generously!

Yin's accent isn't too hard to understand, but sometimes he will mix up words, which can lead to confusion. The material is presented pretty clearly for the most part, although it seemed to me that he expected students to be able to follow everything perfectly. The exams aren't too hard, but there's not much of a curve because of this.
