Reviews of professor Lillian Fok

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Felt in class lectures weren't as productive as the video lectures. lecture participation not required if you get a high enough grade on the exams.HW was online so useful for learning.Tests were half multiple choice & half computational.She gave good reviews for the computational part of the exam.She broke down the paper into multiple assignments.

Lillian is very funny, but as the quarter went on lectures got very boring. You have homework through McGraw-Hill Connect and you should get 100% if you do it all. Nearly everyone in the class got an A on the tests because you are allowed a notesheet and she is an easy grader. There is one group project that you work on throughout the whole quarter

I've rarely seen another professor waste more time during lectures as much as Fok. I learned literally nothing from this class, by virtue of her droning on and on about personal anecdotes for nearly 90 minutes, and then quickly rushing over a basic Powerpoint for the last 30. I skipped two weeks of class, and missed nothing. Utter waste of time.

Easy if you watch her lecture videos. Don't cram it all last minute before the exam. The class sessions are pretty annoying because you have to watch her hour-long lecture beforehand to understand them. She is humorous in class and also gives you a cheat sheet on tests.

There's technically a textbook, but if you go to lectures and watch the videos you don't need it. She's easy to get in contact with, and gives you a lot of opportunity to succeed. She's very well organized and caring if you take the chance to go to office hours. The homework lines up exactly with her computational videos. I'll be taking her again.

This class (online) was such a waste of my time. All of the assignments are on Connect (AKA the worst platform ever). She gives very vague (actually no rubric) for the group project so it's extremely difficult to work on a group project that is required for the entire quarter. Lectures are boring and so confusing. Take a different professor

I don't understand why Professor Fok has such a low rating. For such boring material, she makes it relatively interesting. The exams are hard-ish but if you pay attention and study they aren't bad (she gives a cheat sheet- front and back!). One paper that she switched to individual instead of a group project. She has clear grading criteria.

Spring quarter class in person and loved her. She has a strong accent and a big personality. I found her really knowledgeable and easy to ask questions during class. Its not just the same thing every day in her class. There is a paper that you have to write but she graded really fair, connect homework and tests were the other part of your grade.
