Easiest class I've taken. He was hard to understand at times, but tried to joke around and make class fun. Study his worksheets - tests are based off of them. Helpful in his office. I really don't understand why he has such bad reviews - I didn't have a problem with him.

He's a great professor. He wants all of his students to pass somehow. Sometimes you can't understand what he says. There was no need to buy the book because the website we used to do homework had the pages we needed to read. It should be an okay class if you put effort towards the class. If you don't, expect a C- for your grade.

easy material but bin lu is very hard to understand. he's funny and always willing to help I just ended up teaching the material to myself. go to class because his tests are basically the worksheets he gives out. homework is online. no quizes

Although he is hard to understand, you'll get use to it in no time. his class is easy and VERY helpful. its an easy class if you just show up!

The only problem I had with him is his accent, he's Chinese but his english is very good. He's very funny and really loves to teach. The class itself is super easy, no textbook, no quizzes. Worksheets are given in class and corrected in class. Those worksheets are the format for the 3 tests + final. Homework&textbook acces is online. awesome class.

He had an incredibly strong accent, I could barely understand him sometimes. However, his class was fun, he was always making us laugh, and it was easy! Online homework wasn't too bad, tests were simple if you went to class, and if you missed an assignment he'd reopen it for you. Final is optional too, can only help (not hurt) you.

the homework is online. the test/midterms are like the worksheet given in class. overall pretty easy and really boring.

Loved this class!!!! Prof Lu was such a nice Prof. I thought his accent was going to make this class difficult but it doesn't. Will always adjust the hw dates if you asked. Material is easy if you actually do the online hw. If you don't understand he will take the time to help you. Just a little warning. Final was much harder than the three tests!!

One of the most helpful and funny professors at CSUS. You would expect this class to be hard but Professor Lu makes the material so easy to understand. His examples are straight forward and if you go to class, do your homework, study (i.e be a good student) you are guaranteed an A. If you're going to slack off, expect a failing grade. Love him!

very funny man. at least he tries to be. but i do enjoy his class. he is very helpful and really wants his students to succeed. homework are all online and tests are easy because his worksheets are used as study guides that follow the tests q's. good class

I think he is awesome! He is super quick to respond to your emails if you have any questions. He explains difficult hw problems in class if you ask him to. He makes alot of jokes and is easy going. He is super helpful. Take his class!Make sure you have your IAD score first though.

Overall, this class is easy. You have 3 midterms, 1 cummulitive final, and all the homework is online. He may be hard to understand at first but as long as you do the homework it'll be an easy A.

He is pretty funny with his remarks. Its hard to understand him sometimes because of his accent. All you need to do is come to class and pay attention to his lectures and you'll pass. He doesnt take attendance either.

Mellow teacher! He's helpful and easy. He's funny too ^_^

I don't know why people say that they cannot understand his accent, I can understand his lectures. Dr. Bin Lu is a great professor for this subject, all you have to do is: 1) come to class. 2) pay attention. 3) study the lecture notes. I received an easy A.

He's easy and funny. The class work is EXACTLY like the test and lets you use a cheat sheet.

Professor Lu was awesome! I was worried I would not understand him because of the ratings I found on here. However, he was a great teacher and someone I bonded with immediately. He really does care for his students. His class was so easy. Test problems come from the class work he assigns. SO EASY. Take his class.

Pretty easy class. Tests are basically the worksheets. Prof is really nice and helps a lot. Great class.

Love Prof Bin. He is willing to help his students and wants them to pass. I never liked math until taking his class. He tells funny math stories and relates it to what we're learning. I would take him again, and again, if I could!

Overall, this class was really easy. What is great is that his tests are never harder than the math problems he goes over in class. All you have to do is study the worksheets and you are golden! Try not to skip class because he goes over A LOT of material in one class day. The homework is online... try to do as many problems as you can!

He is a nice teacher and he goes over the material slowly, which can make his class boring sometime. Do all the worksheet on SacCT because those question are on the test. Home work due online almost every week.

He is pretty lenient with due dates. If you need more time, just let him know. Tests are not too bad, if you study.

He's a cool prof. He tries to be funny sometimes during class. There's homework due online every week but he reopens all the homework near the end of the semester. All his powerpoint lectures are posted online and it's very detailed so I didn't really use the textbook. There's study guides for every exam and he lets you use a notecard.

Super funny professor! I really enjoyed taking his class. He has a strong accent but it's pretty easy to understand him. His clarity isn't the best but, he basically gives you the test as a study guide so if you fail IT'S YOUR FAULT. He also let us use a note card during tests. DON'T BUY THE BOOK. Just study and go to math tutors if you need help.

Great math teacher, breaks It down all the way and teaches in a way that everyone understands. I took this course at JC and failed it, got a c+ with this professor. He didn't require us to do matrices or limits which helped a lot! Homework isn't to bad but the online homework system is garbage and makes the assignments difficult to complete.

1. Worksheets are basically the exams, suggest printing them (notes and ws) out before class 2. Finishing the HW early gives you extra credits 3. Explains thoroughly 3. Allow a 3x5 note card in midterms and final 4. If you still need extra help his is super helpful during office hours, or go to Lassen Hall 2200 to get help from the tutors

Easy class and professor. The tests are based on the worksheets he gives. Homework is always extra credit if u do it one day early. He opens it up at the end of the semester for extra credit again to!! Just take good notes and it won't be hard at all. The math is like high school algebra 2 with business stuff LOL

His midterms and finals resemble the worksheets (study guide). Allows you to use a notecard for each midterm and the final. Offers extra credit on each homework assignment if you complete it a day before its due and opens them all again at the end of the term for extra credit! Easiest math professor. Would recommend coming to class do all homework.

Dr. Lu is an easy-going professor. The class is reminiscent of high school math, so I recommend taking this class if you're not a math fan or you need credits. He's understanding and approachable. Gives extra credit if needed. Worksheets are similar to the exams. Very caring! Just be ready to pay for the online program in order to do the homework.

If you show up to class, do the homework early, and study you should get an easy A. I failed this class last semester and Bin Lu made the subject easier to understand than my other professor. Homework and quizzes due at the end of every class. Gives extra credit for turning in homework a day early. He is a funny guy with tons of dad jokes

Easy class for the most part. Grade based on 4 tests and some homework on the sections. Homework has some extra credit if it's done early. Book not necessary if you show up and understand the material. Homework is done online on Webassign and comes with an ebook as well. Professor has an accent, but still understandable when he is teaching.

I was skeptical about taking him because of the accent, but he has by far been the best teacher I've had for this course having had to retake it. The material is tough. He is a funny guy and makes class enjoyable. He explains things in ways you wouldn't have thought of, but it clicks. He is really invested in his students success.

Took this course during a 6-week long Summer session, which only has 3 exams instead of 4 like a regular semester. His exams are just like the class notes and worksheets (which are all available online), so do those problems even thou it is not mandatory. Also if you need help, go to PARC (Lassen Hall 2200) or to Math Lab (Brighton Hall 118).

This professor is a 10/10! Go to lectures and sign up for SI if offered. Bin provides worksheets as almost identical example problems for exams. Every online hw assignment is an opportunity to earn extra credit if completed 24 hours early. Sign up for chegg to help you study outside of class, but Bin is always available for students who need help.

This class was easy, only if you show up to class. Professor Lu is chill, but it is your responsibility to show up and put in the work. There are short quizzes after class, homework (10% EC), and 4 exams. Overall, this course was easy. Worksheets cover the materials on the exams. Show up and you will understand the materials better.

Take this class while it is still on Zoom. He goes over everything and offers 10% extra credit if you turn your homework in early. Quizzes every Monday and Wednesday. They are only 3 questions. Great professor

Professor Bin Lu is a real gem. I took him for MATH 24 and he is very helpful and understands his students. He has weekly quizzes that help in learning. I really learned in this class about Calculus and finance math.

One of the best professors I've had! Super nice and funny, goes through everything thoroughly and cares about your understanding of the material. Quizzes and HW are pretty simple and he offers 10% extra credit on HW 24 hours before it's due. Also, tests are just like the HW. Just show up and pay attention; Very good!

The best thing about this class is that if you finish your homework 24 hours early you get extra credit and since there is a lot of homework, there is a lot of chances for extracredit. As a prof, it is unfortunate because he really is kind but his lectures are really not that helpful when it comes to the homework even if the HW has unlimited tries.

Honestly, he may say to get the access homework online on Cengage but you don't even have to do it. All you need to do is to do good on the exams and you will literally pass this course. Also, this professor is caring but his lectures don't even help so you will need to learn by yourself. BUT honestly, the homework doesn't get graded by the way.

Professor Bin Lu is a truly nice guy and cares about his students and their success! The work is not too much and not too difficult. There is a lot of extra credit offered and his worksheets are very similar to the tests so study/do the worksheets and youre good! His handwriting is hard to read sometimes but overall it was an easy and good class!

Homework if done before the due date is extra credit. Allows 1 notecard for tests and 3 for the final. The class is hard and some of the stuff is hard to grasp. Dropped the support class-wasn't helpful to me. Only graded on tests and the few points for the homework. Doing the homework early helped me get a C. Ask for help!

Easy class and professor. You can use index card and calculator for exams. His exams are problems from the worksheets, so study them and you are good.

Had work sheets that were, perfect for studing for the tests.

His class is free. If you do the homework before its due, you get extra credit on it, which is a huge grade boost. His exams are weighted quite heavily but if you do the handouts, you're more than okay. For god sake, attend this class and DO NOT SKIP. only reason i am giving him a 4 is because he is hard to understand at times.

DO NOT SKIP CLASS ESPECIALLY A MATH CLASS! The class is free otherwise. Make sure you do your homework before the due date to get extra credit point (you'll NEED those). At times he can be hard to understand hence a 4. Make sure to PARTICIPATE and FOLLOW ALONG! The exams will be your study guides just with different numbers! DO YOUR STUDY GUIDES!

Professor Lu cares a lot about his students and their success! He mainly does textbook problems the entire class and will give definitions / formulas. He gives out extra credit for doing the homework early and also has study guides for the three exams, which you can use a flashcard for. I would like his class a lot more if it wasn't at 8AM though!

honestly all you have to do is really put in your own time and learn the material but if you ask him any question he is pretty helpful and lenient. Definitely reach out to him.

Bin Lu is the greatest professor of all time. He's the greatest professor to ever walk this planet. If he stepped onto another planet, he'd instantly become the greatest professor on that planet. 10/10.

Professor Lu is very caring about his student's success. His exams are difficult, but he allows notecards. Tests and Quizzes are online through Cengage. If you do the homework 24 hours before it's due, you'll get extra credit. DO YOUR STUDY GUIDES! His class is really easy only if it wasn't at 8am.
