Winter 2020 - Professor Kang is considered to be one of the best physics professors I have taken at UCLA. He is engaging and very helpful with students. He is great at explaining his view and the subject well but you need to go to his office hours. His office hours are very helpful. Use that time to talk about the subject and HW. His TA Reddy is extremely helpful as well for he doesn't rest with Professor Kang to provide the best quality teaching for the students. Professor Kang is constantly developing to be a better professor for all students alike. Here are the stats: Midterms: 20% each. There are two midterms. Evaluation: 1% Discussion Worksheet: 3% HW Mastering Physics: 16% Final: 40% All these stats can change due to the survey he does throughout the quarter. Depend on that survey he will work towards benefiting you as much as he can. So don't be rude when you get a bad midterm grade. Just make sure to work hard and do your best. Oh and he takes efforts into your grade. Good luck!

Fall 2020 - Dr. Kang is special. I highly advise you take physics 124 with him if you get the chance. It’s a low stress environment where you will get the opportunity learn super cool things. The course is easy overall with the way he does things. He is VERY fair for exams, not making them difficult to where the average is a failing grade. I believe the average for our midterm was around a high 80 (88 or something). He does not curve the class, which is no problem with how fair he is overall. The grading is generous and the TA is great. Dr Kang is a very kind person and clearly loves to help you out. He is highly concerned about learning and cares for the students. He is one of a kind and unlike many UCLA physics professors. My favorite professor thus far.
