Reviews of professor Wen Chen

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
He is a very nice teacher! My lecture had 400 students and he still said he noticed my test grades improved over the semester. He cares about students and seems to be the best option for BIO 1030. That being said, it's a hard class. Tests are very detailed oriented and I had to teach myself alot. I used boseman and amoeba sister videos.

I was in When Chen's first Biology 1030 class. From the start, he was always smiling and enthusiastic about the slides and notes. He is kinda hard to understand at first cause of his accent but it isn't an issue. He gives mad extra credit and is one of the best profs I've had. Love that man.

His class is not easy, you have to work for it, and he is a little hard to understand sometimes. However, he cares about his students and what he is teaching a lot. He also provides extra credit opportunities. His class consists of 4 exams. I recommend skimming the textbook as well as looking over previous powerpoints to study.

Dr. Chen is really nice, but I personally did not like the structure of the class. You will definitely have to read the chapters and and go through the lectures on your own to gain good understanding of the material. The homework and iClicker questions are extra credit so those point do help a lot!

Dr. Chen is a good professor. His lectures are heavy, but they are helpful when studying. Read the book! He is very nice and easy to reach outside of class.

He is a very nice professor. However, his class is not an intro class. Even my lab TA agreed that his questions on the exams were way too in depth for an intro level course. Even with reading the textbook, attending class and taking notes my grade was horrible. I advise you not to take his course if you are looking for an A.

Professor Wen Chen is the best! He is hard to hear sometimes in Brackett so make sure you sit in the front. Hes willing to answer your questions and is so helpful. He gives extra credit if you do the homework and iclicker questions in class.

I loved him! His lectures are pretty dense, but he always ends the class with iClicker questions to help you grasp the material & are all extra credit points w/your exam grade. There's online homework but it's not due till test time. If you pay attention, you don't really need to read the textbook, but I do & have made As on every exam.

Wen Chen is a great professor. At times he can be hard to understand, however you can tell he really cares about what he is teaching. He sends out all of the lecture slides for studying and it helps for the tests. If you study, you can easily get an A. He offers extra credit through the iClickers in class, as well as for the homework online!
