Lin gives decent and good lectures, but as soon as it comes to the exams, he goes to a whole different level. It is a hard class and if you don't have a good background in chemistry this class will be tough. Also he claims to curve the grades, but sometimes it does not turn out the way it should. Nonetheless, it is a hard class and he is good.

Lectures consiste of him reading a power point. If you want to actually learn the content I would recommend YouTube videos (khan academy). He assigns quizzes with material you could never learn if you only watch him reading the power point. No study guides or any preparation for the exams which are hard, and most of your grade will depend on that.

Professor Lin is very caring and he is flexible to work with. If you need an extension to a homework assignment or test he will give it to you.

Lin was a great professor. He was flexible & understanding & explained things thoroughly. The only thing that I feel was difficult, was that he assigned several assignments on test weeks. Sometimes 7+ assignments & it was really rough to be able to focus on the exam for that week and do lots of work. This class is a lot of work but a great course.

This is a hard class itself and requires a lot of time and dedication. I have nothing against Lin, however, he is not very engaged in the class. Everything was done via an access code and a third-party platform. To me, this class was more about teaching myself and reading off of a textbook than anything else.

Definitely one of the best professors for biology. He knows the material which help a lotttt when it comes to learning it yourself, he is really helpful when you are stuck on something, I really recommend! Yes the class itself can be difficult to learn but trust me he is the professor you want to take the class with.

I had such an amazing experience with his Human Anatomy course. The work is clear, there are resources available to study effectively, and there's extra credit opportunities every week in forms of drawings related to the current weekly topics. There really is no reason to be failing this class. Yes, it's challenging for some but very manageable.
