Reviews of professor Chen Lin

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Do every assignment and extra credit opportunity. Her lectures go by so fast, you need to study right after to remember the material. Not an easy A, but you could squeeze by if you play your cards right. Don't take her for lab though haha. Her lab reports are impossible.

bro okay so she starts off the labs with like a 30-40min recorded lecture and were just sitting there twiddling our thumbs. shes very specific on what she wants and when you dont do it right, she calls you out and makes you start all over. lab reports are wack and she honestly expects way too much. very rude and prayers for you if you have her.

I dont have any complaints about this professor. Her lectures may be a little hard to follow, but she always communicated information well, she was always very organized, and despite the difficulty of this subject, she does give you the tools to succeed.

Reads off PowerPoint and doesnt go over small important details that would help understand her wall of calculations. Test wording is confusing. When asking a question, she doesnt answer directly and talks about something else. Had to teach myself 97% of the time. Only good thing was a lot of extra credit, and this is coming from someone with a 4.0.

Lectures are very fast and there is a lot of homework. Exams are online (no webcam required).  Attendance is mandatory and the questions she provides on the clicker questions are considered extra points for exams if you get them correct. There is an AVA Frontera group project that is worth a good chunk of your grade.

Avoid if possible. A lot of homework and goes over PPTS very quickly. Doesn't answer questions well and seems confused as to how you don't understand. Make sure to do the extra credit. Homework doesn't help a whole lot on exams. Lab reports are extensive and is super strict with plagiarism between lab partners.

Professor lin is a really good professor she offers a lot of extra points towards your grade and she does iClicker points she puts towards the exams. Also her lecture are fast but she does explain well if you ask her to go over it again she responds fast to emails and will make time to help you.
