Reviews of professor Yueh-Ju Lin

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
She's an alright professor. Must go to class because she does not post lecture notes anywhere. Her lectures are very dull and make you fall asleep. You only have two tests and then the final which is 35% of your overall grade. Fortunately her practice exams she gives out are very similar to the actual exams. She assigns hw every week. No EC given.

Professor Lin overcomplicates simple concepts and does everything by the book not really giving a good explanation. She assigns lots of homework from the book and most of the grade depends on the exams, if you need a good lecture to pass the class this is not your professor, however she does make it easier to get an A than other professors

Super lenient on test grades and the material she gives to study prepares you well. Probably my favorite course I have taken. She is clearly very passionate about the subject and her lectures are very organized.

Prof Lin is actually terrible at lecturing Diff EQ, but it doesn't matter. Go to the lectures to get a feel for the material & learn it by doing the homework. Once I figured this out, the rest of her class became easy as her practice exams prepare you well for the actual exam as the exams were not that different from the homework assigned.

The professor does not how to teach. Her lectures are from the book. She makes exam tougher by giving more questions and less time. She is not supportive or understanding at all. You miss a bracket and you get negative 1. I highly recommend to not waste money in her class. I got an A+ but not because of her because I studied YouTube lectures.

Go to class every day and do all the homework and recommended textbook problems and you should be ok on the tests.  She grades very hard on the test, even if you get the correct final answer she will grade each step you used but if you use the wrong method to get the wrong answer you will get most of the credit. Overall a very fair professor.

I expected to get an A this semester in Differential Equations because she was very explicit with her lectures, her practice exams are almost exactly what the tests were on, and she drops the two lowest HW grades. This woman changed our class's grading scale so an 88 or above was an A. Wish I could take her for all my math courses

The best instructor one could ask for. I absolutely do believe it's hard to find a better instructor.

Dr. Lin really cares about her students. I was out multiple times this semester and Dr. Lin worked with me to ensure the material was covered. She really goes above and beyond in office hours. That being said her lectures are often confusing and overcomplicate simple concepts. Her practice exams are very similar to her tests.
