Reviews of professor Wei-Pang Chin

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
CS1200 is annoying no matter what prof you take since it's a bs required class, but chin goes way harder for group proj in comp to others (ive heard from ppl) + his exam questions are intentionally trick questions. He's a chill guy but the class is tedious and so extra for 2 credit hours
Homework/quizzes-25%,group proj-25%,2 exams-45%,attendance-5%

Avoid Chin if possible, randomly takes attendance, insane levels of tedious homework, and tests are bs, test questions are just trick questions to see if you memorized his slides on the tests so it's so annoying

INSANE CURVE THO: 55% AVG CURVES TO ROUGHLY TO A C
Grades: attendance: 5%, online reading hw: 10%, online quizzes: 15%, 2 exams: 60%

Firstly- Chin *is* a caring professor. He wants his students to succeed, but I don't think he has the mindset for being a teacher. He'll crack a joke here and there, but he makes no effort whatsoever to make his lessons engaging or to get the attention of his students. If I should "just self-learn" then what's the point of having a class at all?

Really bad professor. The exams are simply impossible unless you memorize the textbook and slides down to every minute detail. I'd highly recommend steering clear of him and this school.

Do not take this professor if you want an A. Try to take any other professor if you don't want to deal with very tough tests over content that mumbles over. You can barely hear him talk half the time so I wouldn't recommmend him. Many of the questions on the test are over specific things that he would say in class.

Chin's Discrete Math course isn't as terrible as people made it out to be, at least if you're willing to put in the effort. You will walk out of his course having learned, although the way he structures the course favors some memorization. The course is difficult, but the payout is worth it. I will admit his lectures can be dull, though.

he mumbles so much, there is an insane amount of homework (about 3 a week), he goes pretty fast and does random attendance checks. if you can avoid taking him i would /highly/ suggest it.

Where do I begin, Mr. Chin is one of a kind, truly a godsend, because he can't teach but it doesn't matter since CS 1200 is useless and easy it is just two tests for which you have to go over the slides and a group project.

honestly this discrete wasnt TOO terrible just a lot of random work but exams make up 60% of ur grade so just study a lot for them. ALSO if u want to do well in this class i recommend looking at Kimberly Brehm's Discrete math playlist on yt. the playlist teaches u off the same textbook that chin teaches with but Brehm explains it hella good.
