Faculty: The instructors are excellent and very knowledgeable. They're known all over the world, and they have books that sell for 10,000-15,000 copies on Amazon, but the thing is they're not motivated to learn. They try hard to teach you, but you have to teach yourself in the end. The January exam was easy, with a 93% pass percentage.
