Reviews of professor Cynthia Wei

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
As a Science for All option, Professor Wei was great. All her quizzes and exams are open notes, two major papers, and two major group projects (if you don't like group work, this is not your class. Whenever I met her outside of class she was very helpful and gave extra credit opportunities if she noticed students struggling. Great SFA choice.

Dr. Wei is so nice and willing to help, but she assigns so much. Almost every homework assignment has 3-6 tasks. Per class, it's usually at least two hours of homework and typically takes longer. Way more than I was expecting for a freshman science for all. The class is do-able, but expectations are high.

You definitely have to pay attention and take a lot of notes in this class (very helpful for open-note tests) but Dr. Wei legitimately cares about the subject and making sure her students do well. The class is extremely well-organized and expectations are very clear.

Professor Wei is the nicest person in the world and clearly passionate about the subject material. Tests are open note so pretty easy to get a good grade if you pay attention. However, this class tends to be pretty involved and work heavy- plus she can be a tough grader- so don't take it if you're just looking for an easy science for all.

Professor Wei is a kind person, but makes this class unnecessarily difficult. I love the content of the class but her extremely vague directions and tough grading made me not enjoy it. Her tests are open note, but she uses this as an opportunity to include the most obscure information. Take an easier science for all and save your sanity.
