Reviews of professor Ruohan Wu

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Her lectures are long and boring, but she does post good material to study. If you study, her study guides you should be equipped for test. Her class is hard until you understand how she teaches. Sometimes she is hard to understand but as long as you study outside of class you are good. She does give extra credit that is worth a lot. DO IT!

I loved her. I took micro and macro with her. She does a good job explaining criteria and her lecture is very similar to the tests. If you pay attention, it all aligns. Homework is easy and the extra credit helps. She cares about what she is teaching and will gladly help if you feel behind.

She is a nice person and seems to enjoy what she teaches but she talks the entire class and does so extremely quickly and with a strong accent which makes it difficult to keep up with. You will likely run through 8-12 slides worth of notes in an average class and will not have opportunities to ask questions. It will be very hard to remain engaged.

Hard webcam proctored exams. Discussion posts & hw. Do extra credits & practice exams! Attendance is 10%. Much outside self-teaching, so watch Jacob Clifford on YT for help (make a playlist; it helps for final exam review). Don't memorize the material; understand it. Ask what you got wrong on exams, and she will give you an explanation.

For homework, you only have ten question quizzes per week and a discussion twice a month. I typically really struggle on exams, and they were a little difficult, but she gives you a study guide and a list of things you need to know before the exam which is very helpful to me. She's definitely the bet economics professor I've ever had.

We had four proctored exams, non proctored easy quizzes due every week, discussions twice a month but very simple. The workload in her class was easy to manage but the test were difficult if you do not study. But, even if you did study its still hard. She does respond fast to emails however.

I had her both in-person and online. She has a thick accent and it's hard to understand her at times, but her tests are easy. She gives you practice tests that are similar to the actual test and it is based on the powerpoints. She doesn't make you buy a textbook, she gives you an online link, but I have never looked at it and I have done fine.

Dr. Wu is a tough instructor, but you can tell that she knows what she's talking about and she is passionate about her subject. Her workload is simple and not too overwhelming. You do need to spend time outside of class with the material and study if you want to do well on the exams, but her study guides help. She's very sweet and knowledgable.
