Reviews of professor Michael Chi

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Has really good notes but he has a very monotone voice when he lectures, making the class extremely boring. Overall, class wasn't too hard, just review his notes on your own time and you'll be fine. Midterm was very similar to practice midterm, but final was harder than the practice finals.

Professor Chi is an okay professor but a terrible instructor. He's unclear, has no idea how to teach and is so monotoned and boring that I got so bored and saw many classmates fall asleep or do something else mid-lecture. Don't take him if you wanna pass, he didn't explain anything at all and it should not take 50 minutes to do one question.

Overall this professor is great for introductory. In class he provides notes in docx format and pdf which is very useful. You don't need to come to class because he repeats what is said in his notes. Outside of class he will thoroughly answer your questions. His tests are standardized across all stat 151 classes so they are out of his control

There is no curve in this course and the class average C+, this is a little bit lower than the other 100-level course. I thought STAT 151 is a gpa booster but I am wrong. Dr. Chi is a really nice guy because he always welcomes his students, HE IS BETTER THEN THE OTHERS. bUT If you are looking for a gpa booster then I won't recommend this course.

Chi was very boring in lecture, which made it hard to pay attention. He literally read word for word from his notes package and would post them online once the chapter was done. I taught most of the course to myself as a result of this. His practice problems were exactly what was expected on the exams.

Decent enough lecturer, but he practically quotes his notes. However, these notes are excellent, easy to follow and have plenty of examples. Since the notes are posted online, my recommendation is to skip class, and review the completed notes on you own time.

STAT 151 is not a hard course, but sometimes the concepts just don't make sense. Chi, M is one of best professors I have ever met in my first year. He really respects his students and cares about them. In a word, amazing.

Dr. Chi is an amazing prof! He's so sweet and really cares about his students and loves it when people ask questions. He goes out of his way to answer them well and speaks clearly and at a good pace. His notes are amazing and they reflect the exam material well. I would totally take his class again!

Great professor all around. He responds to all emails very quickly and his exams are extremely fair. Also, his practice exams are often a bit harder (but still easy) than the actual exam. Lastly, he posts all his notes at the end of every topic with worked in-class exercises.
