You will never get bore in Chi's class. He always has tons of jokes to tell. However, his tests are kinda hard; most people didn't do well on his exams. But he will drop the lowest one and curved it.

Prof Chang has an effective and engaging teaching style - his lectures really help you understand accounting concepts. Be prepared to study after every class if you are doing winter session. Also, do the hw assignments and go to all lectures! If you don't do well on exams, he has a big curve. I definitely recommend him for BUS20.

Teacher is great. Knowledgeable, funny, smart, and a great resource for recommendations if you want it. His class is very fast paced, too fast for me. Had a huge curve, as 60% of his students were failing.

Prof Chi gave out very straightforward study guides for the midterms and final. I recommend copying his powerpoint slides onto a word doc and printing them out as notes during lecture. Then adding his extra comments on the margins. Saved me from reading the book. Overall easy class if you do the reading.

Master Chi is AMAZING! He is the best teacher you can get for bus 20. He created a book/manual that is extremely helpful you can not pass this class without it. The way he break information down is fantastic anyone could get it. This subject is super hard. But with a professor that cares so much about his student he makes the subject passable

Master Chi is awesome! Attendance is mandatory to help you understand the material. He gives you a study guide for every exam. Cheat sheet for the final. There's homework every week but you can turn it in late. His exams are hard so study alot for them especially from the practice midterms.

From all classes taken, hands down Master Chi was the all time enthusiastic, animated, and entertaining professor. Accounting is a complex subject, but with Chi the lessons are broken down into parts and related to our lives. I was present in every class because it is the most exciting class I had ever experienced.

Master Chi is extremely helpful and a very nice man. The material is somewhat difficult to understand but he does his best explaining it. The exams are difficult but he gives thorough study guides and gives some clues as to what questions will be on there. Take him!

Difficult class, but Master Chi helps you survive it. One hw assignment each week, but he gives you the solutions so you can work through it. Two midterms and a final, with thorough study guides. He let us have a reference sheet on the final which saved my life. Do the practice midterms, they will really help you on the tests!

Accounting is not my forte, but Master Chi tried his best to clarify things for me. 3 midterms,and the final is not cumulative.He provides a study guide for all the exams. He grades on a curve, so that's a plus. Attendance is mandatory because he moves pretty quickly, and you don't want to fall behind. He was also an entertaining professor.

Master Chi is hands down the most caring, unique, charismatic prof I've had! Yes the material is hard but I enjoyed the class very much. He's always enthusiastic about answering questions and he tells great stories. He provides us not only with coursework help, but advice on life too. You don't comes across many prof like that. nowadays

This professor really cares about how you are doing in the class! He knew there were no accounting majors in the class so made the exams easier and let us use notes on one exam and cancelled the final so we only had 3 exams. There's weekly HWs which are easy. He's the best at SJSU hands down! && He's hella funny!

This professor was very insightful because not only does he teach you the class but how he has applied it successfully in the real world. He really cares about his students and he also wants them to work very hard. He definitely doesn't give up on anyone. He is also really inspirational, which is pretty rare for an SJSU professor.

Amazing professor! You can tell Master Chi comes to SJSU simply because he wants to teach and help others out. Replies to emails fast, available in office hours, and gives good, detailed lectures. Loved his stories and how he had real life examples to match the material being taught.

Chi is a one-of-a-kind professor who teaches because he loves teaching. While the subject of accounting may be dull for some, he makes it so the class is both fair, and hilarious. There is a curve, but don't take for granted the extra-bit of learning that comes with it.

Master Chi is the best. He knowns that accounting isn't easy or fun, but makes it both. He cares about students and how they do in his course. He makes jokes and curves most things. Show up to class not only to learn but to smile.

Glad I chose him for this class. Master Chi really cares about his students. He understands that accounting is not easy and fun, but he makes it both in a balanced way. Just make sure to do all of the homework and he practice midterms and positive reinforcements. You'll be fine if you do these things for success. Also he grades on a huge curve.

I will miss Chi's positive attitude at every class section. He understands that accounting can be difficult at times and does everything in his power to help out the class. Overall, you have 2 midterms (40 multiple choice questions each), 12 online assignments, and a non cumulative final exam. Heavily curved class. Thanks for everything, Chi.

This guys is such a heart. Not normal for a guy to talk like this but I must say I had a great time in his class. He made accounting so easy. There are times where you will laugh. I am not an accounting major but his class really made my semester. I really wish he taught accounting 21 too. He even offered help in my language. Take him and be happy.
