Reviews of professor Brennan Chin

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
If you have the chance to take Brennan, do it! Physio is not an easy class but Brennan explained everything very well. Brennan wants his students to do well and gives study sessions the Friday's before the exam. Go to them! He tells you what will be on the exam and helps with essay questions. Brennan became one of my favorite professors at the JC!

Brennan is one of the best professor's I've had. He prepares you so well for tests by giving out study guides in advance and even holding study sessions. He lays it all out in the easiest way for everyone to understand. His diagrams were so helpful, especially when it came to different mechanisms. Highly recommended professor.

Wonderful professor! Brennan is approachable and flexible. His lectures are crystal clear and easy to understand. There is a required textbook, but I didn't use it at all. This class was challenging, but it's manageable. Extra credit available and review sessions before exam days. He wants to help his students succeed. Take him if you can!

I enjoyed this class so much, although I had an average grade it was very interesting. Brennan gave us recommendations on how to pass his class and informed us the first class that it is lecture heavy. There are 5 exams total; thankfully he gives extra credit options if needed. Highly recommend flash cards, recording lectures, and owning an iPad.

This class is lecture-heavy! However, Chin does a great job at breaking down each concept by creating illustrations. Owning an Ipad is a plus.  If you miss labs, you miss points! He offers PLENTY extra credit. Almost every exam and quiz have a few extra credit points. Final exam is cumulative and a week after 4th exam! you'll have to work for an A.

Brennan is a great professor. He really wants to make sure you succeed. When our class spring 2020 suddenly went online, he made the transition really easy even though it was a difficult transition for everyone. He spent a lot of time with me during office hours to help me better understand the concepts as well to help me succeed.

Had him his first year at SSU. At first I wasn't sure about him but he turned out to be a really good professor. Weekly quizzes on material discussed that week. Open-minded. His lectures were interesting and exactly what you are tested on. He provides clear study guides too. He made biology class somewhat easy.

Although Professor Brennan's class is challenging for me, I find him to be a nice and humorous teacher. He warned us in the beginning that the material and exams would be heavy, but he provides plenty of extra credit opportunities in his lab. If you study hard, take good notes, and remember the material easily, you should be fine.
