I believe this was Professor Zhang's first time teaching ECE 10, and it was fairly straightforward. In contrast to ECE 3, where you are merely introduced to various methods such as NVA, Impedance, and so on, Professor Zhang goes into detail about each topic and shows many examples in lecture.
His exams are fair and simple (Midterm Median ~ 89, Final Median ~ 85). If you review lecture examples and tackle the homework problems honestly, you should be fine. If you want to feel more prepared, I recommend doing extra problems from YouTube or the textbook (but this is not required).
I will say that he would sometimes ramble on about proofs, which could make you feel lost at times, but just remember that they are not required to be known. You'll do well if you understand both the lecture examples and main topics! He's very friendly and nice during office hours!
Just boosting Yang's stats. Definitely the one to take
Zhang is an amazing lecturer and makes concepts very easy to follow even for non ee majors. if you attend every lecture and take good notes you should have no problem doing well on exams. exams are fully open note which helps. the final was 10 questions which was a lot to complete in the 3 hours. homeworks could be long (10 questions) and we had hw up until the last week which wasn't great. there are no actual discussion sections, TAs will hold office hours that serve as discussion sections. overall solid engineering class.
