Reviews of professor Zhenfei Liu

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Study lectures like really study lectures and you'll do good. Every exam question is from lecture slides. I didn't even watch lecture. Study old exams and final exam is easy. He does half conceptual and half math. The conceptual sometimes was hard but after 2nd/3rd exam they were easy to know what to look for. Def take him if he is offered.

half conceptual half chemistry. His lectures were awful so if you can learn on your own you will be good. Really really study the lecture words and the examples used in lecture slides. I used the book questions for extra help. final exam were mostly questions from exams 1-4. I would take him again because after the 1st exam you know how he tests.

Dr. Liu really cares about his students. He curves quite a bit in his class and exams are based on prior homework, quizzes, and the reviews. The grading scale was based on a ranking system, so it made it very hard to fail the class. Overall he cares a lot for his students and is a great professor. Take him if you can!

Good lectures, good exams, and overall good vibes from this dude. 1st exam had an average of 45% but no biggie, he changed the exam formatting and the next exam averaged a 75%. Homework is the usual OWL stuff due the day before exams. The math portions of the exams are toughly graded so be weary of that.

This professor is definitely one of the more caring ones. He took feedback from the class constantly and molded the class around what we had to say. The material is difficult in nature but coursework is very reflective of the book and powerpoints gone over in class.

Professor Liu is a great professor. His explanations are clear, and you can tell he has an abundance of experience when it comes to chemistry. If you put in the work 5 days before the exam and just rewatch his lectures and continue to practice the examples he gives, there is no doubt you wont leave without anything lower then a B.

he explains well and takes his time, when we complained about the exam, he made the next one easy but no matter how easy the exam the grading is so tough.

The class isn't over yet but, this is by far the worst class I have taken. First exam, thought I aced, walked out with the biggest smile, a week later got my score of 40%... Runs through lectures very fast, doesn't teach just reads slides. Save yourself going to lecture and just read the slides yourself, or save yourself and don't take him period.

Such an amazing professor that accommodated our class with easier exams after the first one was unclear and difficult. All you need to study is the PowerPoint notes with its examples and you'll ace the exam. Will definitely take this professor within a heartbeat.
