Reviews of professor Mao Song

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
The lectures she gave were lack-luster. I often times just looked up review videos online, which is what I would have done regardless of professor. However, the real kicker is the work. Her paper labs are extremely confusing, leaving me confused and skipping two of them. Her grading criteria is confusing and defies the syllabus.

I enjoyed Orgo 1 with Dr. Song. There is a lab, quiz, and connect hw due every week. There are 3 exams that are half written and half MCQ, and 1 final exam. She hosts Zoom lectures every week, but they are optional. No discussion posts, problem solving homework, or virtual labs. Thank God! You must study and do practice questions, Orgo is hard.

Do not take this class. The amount of busy work is astronomical. The lectures are just the professor talking over a powerpoint. The written labs are confusing. The professor doesn't seem like she knows how to help students learn.
