Reviews of professor Changjiang Zhu

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
It doesnt matter how much I studied or how many hours I spent with a tutor. The homework and reviews would make sense but then the test would be completely different. I am not on the presidents honor roll anymore, and I have to retake this class. I do not recommend this professor because the test will cover the exceptions that he doesnt cover.

The class is only tests (and some quizzes online that amount to nothing point wise). He posts exam reviews from previous professors at OCCC that do not resemble HIS tests AT ALL. Has a short and mean attitude. Save your questions till after class for the tutors in the PSC. My heart truly goes out to anyone that has to take this professor. Terrible.

This rating isn't just due to the difficulty of the class (though it is hard). This review is specifically about Dr. Zhu. I'll never forget how poorly this teacher made me feel. If you don't already have a solid understanding of chemistry, do not take this teacher. Communication is poor, there are only exams, and the favoritism is unmistakable.

He really is great. I failed Chem II and then took him. 200% better. Gives lots of examples of how to do the work and makes chemistry understandable to the average joe.

He is an excellent teacher who is very good at explaining concepts. Very detail oriented, funny and easy going, he's an easy grader. Always available during office hour. Although the lecture videos were long, but he really put lots of hard work on it and I learned a lot from his class. He cares about students success. Best Professor!

Prof. Zhu is not for everyone, he is very short and tries to speed you along to get through the course without making sure the concept is being grasped then he will make you feel stupid by saying it in front of the whole class. I do not know that this was intentional but he doesn't care about his students well being.

Professor Zhu is the one professor who I will always remember as the one who I would never want to have to take a section with again. He is difficult to understand, does not teach the test material, and poorly conveys concepts important to pass the course. If you have the opportunity, take Chemistry 1115 or 1215 with someone else.

His grading criteria are clear. Make sure to do the homework quizzes because they can help boost your grade up. Although his lecture videos can be hard to understand, you can have zoom meetings with him for help. He answers your questions straight to the point. Just expect a lot of studying. Also, rounded my 89.5% to an A
