Reviews of professor Jer-Chin Chuang

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
MATH 257 is a very organized course. It's quite easy - it's impossible not to get an A if you attend your lectures and do your homework. I recommend attending the online lecture videos instead of the in-person section. While Dr. Luke's lectures aren't bad, the online videos are better, and you can cover more content in less time.

The resources from the school offered by his lectures and other recorded materials are hard to understand, you should refer to resources from other schools to succeed in the conceptual part of the exams. Also, students learn nothing from the computational lab section results in we need to self-teach python that count for 15% of the tests.

HORRIBLE. This is probably the most unreasonable professor I know. I think he expects that linear algebra is the only class that you are taking, and that you can devote 10 hours a day to this class. That's what you'll need to get an A

For the love of God take this class at a community college. I'm in mechE, and only about 15% of this class is useful to any other engineering class, just the most basic concepts. Everything else is useless. They go into way too much depth and make it confusing and incredibly difficult. For reference I got an A/A+ in every single other math class.

While he is a good lecturer - the material he covers in class was oftentimes useless for doing homework and studying for the exams. The class needs some serious reconstruction, for homework you will be only do computation and python problems, yet the exams (75% of the class grade) will test you heavily on conceptuals, (do math415 prac tests!)
