She gives a million opportunities to get extra credit. Her english is not the greatest so you need the text, but overall a really good teacher who cares about her students grades.

Professor Zhang is really awesome and truly cares about her students. She is in love with chemistry and is willing to do anything to help her students get a good grade. She gives so many extra credit opportunites so if you don't get an A it's because you're simply lazy or don't care about anything. She has a heavy asian accent.

Takes time to explain everything and will go back over material if she notices people are confused. She gives out study guides that are different but the same format as the tests given in class. She does random iclicker quizzes in class so showing up is recommended.

Her accent may be hard to understand at first, but after the second or third lecture, I was able to get what she was saying completely. She explains everything extremely well, and makes sure to be as helpful as possible if you have any questions. She is a very good professor, and seems to genuinely want everyone to do well.

Lots of hw, but it's pretty easy and can be done fast. Does plenty of examples in class and then does I-clicker quizzes to check for attendance. She's very helpful and easy to talk to during her office hours if you don't understand something. She gives practice exams which basically mirror the actual exam.

At first can be difficult to understand but it makes you pay more attention. Once you do understand you realize she is actually great at explaining and tries her best to make sure everyone knows what it going on. Homework is on owlV2. Tests are MC and close to study guide. Iclicker quizzes every class for attendance.

She does have an accent, but it is not that hard to understand her. Also, she takes iClicker quizzes every class to take attendance, so show up. Her test reviews are very similar to her actual tests, so if you understand them, then the tests should be easy

Dr. Zhang is the sweetest lady. She does have a thick accent but it's not hard to understand. The class is realtively easy and doesn't require much. The study guides are almost identical to the tests, which are less than 20 questions. I wish I could have taken her again for chem 112. Dont buy the textbook.

She is a very cute and sweet lady but has a bit of an accent. If you ask questions, she will gladly explain it so that you can understand the topic better. She sticks to the notes and is good about letting you know what to expect on the exams. Also, she gives iclicker quizzes every class which count for attendance so they are easy credit points.

she seems like a hardo but a really good teacher, she does not give extra credit or curve grades but i def recommend. you will pass if you show up and follow along

Dr. Zhang is a solid professor who lectures well and conveys material appropriately. She didn't give as many study/review materials before exams as other professors did with their classes. She seems very sweet and seems to want her students to do well. iClicker points are graded BOTH for accuracy and for attendance. The guided lecture book helps!!

Oh man-where do I start. LEGENDARY- in short, is how I explain the blessing we know as Min Zhang. She deserves far more clout than her current ratings. She is very concise and clear on what you must know and does a great job relaying the details. Min is absolutely priceless and excellent at what she does. TAKE HER. PERIOD.

Chem111 is a harder class but I think this professor teaches the information great and knows chemistry well. She is hard to understand at first but it is not bad. I would definitely take her again.

Dr. Zhang is super nice and she explains things very well. Her accent is a little hard to understand t first, but you get used to it. She takes attendance through I-clicker quizzes which are graded based off of right or wrong answers, but she always does a very similar problem right before so they are hard to miss. Practice exams exactly like tests

Iclicker points are used every single class so make sure you go. The homework is based off of what you learn. Get the lecture book. The tests are almost exactly the same as the study guides. Overall good professor.

She gives practice exams before each exam that are the same types of problems as the actual exams. Attendance is taken by an iclicker quiz every class and are helpful at the end if your grade needs a little boost. Accent is there but not hard to understand. Teaches at a fast pace but as long as you study and do online hw you'll do fine. Take her!

She is very good at giving you enough details to understand but not too many to where you are confused. She has a lot of iClicker points which help your grade quite a bit as long as you go to class. The homework is online and is pretty easy and counts for a lot of your grade.

At first she can be kind of hard to understand, but once you get used to it everything starts to click because it forces you to pay attention. There's iclicker quizzes every day that count towards your grade and attendance. Her practice exams are really helpful for exams. Definitely wish she taught 112, too, I would've taken her again.

Very good teacher it is a lot of work but it is possible. She makes sure everyone understands the material and make sure you have an iclicker. The study guides are very thorough and if you study you will do good on the test. Just keep up with the homework.

Professor Zhang goes through material very fast. She expects students to practice outside of class. Not challenging if you put effort into it.

I really enjoyed Professor Zhang's class. She makes sure to go through all of the examples and explains them thoroughly. This class was challenging, but if you practice and put in the work, you should be fine. She is very nice and cares about her students. I highly recommend taking her class. Textbook optional.

Dr. Zhang is a really good instructor when it comes to teaching. She has an accent which can be a bit difficult to understand at first, but you get used to it after a couple of classes. She is very nice outside of class as well and is always willing to help. As long as you reach out when you need it, you'll do fine in her class.

At first it was slightly difficult to get used to how to understand the content, but after a while I picked it up and did very well. Get ready to study, material is not something you can understand just from the lecture. SI highly recommended.

I love Dr. Zhang so much that I am taking her again next semester! She emails back very quickly, provides old exams for you to practice with, and does the in-class quizzes with the class & gives the answers. She goes through the material quickly, but that how it is in Chemistry. I got an A on every exam- if you work hard you will do well!!

it doesn't really matter which chem prof you take, since all the students follow the same notes, take standardized exams, and have basically the same homework. Prof Zhang is a solid professor. Her class can be boring, but what chem lecture isn't. Like the other chem profs, she posts practice exams. Don't buy the iclicker remote, just get the app.

It is a little tough to understand the accent at first but it gets easier as the class goes on. Teaches from printed lecture slides that she annotates all over and then posts. She describes everything well and introduces you to a higher level of understanding. She is really good at answering emails quickly. Textbook not really needed.

Let me just start out by saying this, it doesn't matter at all who you take for gen chem. They all follow the same guided notes, and they all have to stay on pace with the syllabus. All exams are the same. Zhang is great bc she is always accessible outside of class, and is v helpful. She posts notes on BB and wants you to succeed. Very sweet prof!

Professor Zhang knows the material like the back of her hand and always explains it very well. She also responds with help on practice problems very quickly and is happy to help.

She explained everything thoroughly. She is always quick to respond if you have a question about anything. I would recommend her!

I love Dr. Zhang. She is pretty good at explaining the topics that you would cover in class. She responded to several of my emails with relative quickness and thoroughly answered any question that I had. I enjoyed the class and would take it again if I had the chance!

Everything in this class is controlled by the Chemistry Department. So, the teacher does not change grades, give extra credit, etc. This rating all comes down to how well the teacher taught the material. Dr. Zhang is very sweet and does everything in her power to make sure you know the content. Sends out reminders constantly & knows the content.

The lectures can be boring, but if you go to class and make sure you understand the homework, you will be fine. She is kind and incredibly responsive to questions. She made a class group chat and consistently responded to individual students' questions quickly. The practice exams are very similar to the real exams, so make sure you do them.

I took Dr. Zhang for Chem 111 and 112. Her lectures are very clear and easy to follow. Homework and exams for these classes are standardized and the exams are weighted very heavily. There were pop quizzes in each class but she typically gave us the answers! She is also probably the most accessible professor outside of class that I have had at USC!

Professor Zhang is such a sweet professor and does a great job teaching the material! She takes notes with the students and tells them exactly what they need to know. There are online quizzes in class, mostly she gives you the answers. She also releases practice exams 2 weeks before the test and are very similar to the actual test.

She was hard to understand but I was able to catch on quickly. Her practice exams are great and resemble the actual exams. I was super scared to take her class but I ended up actually really liking it and I do recommend her.

Professor Zhang is super nice and very knowledgeable in what she is teaching. Lecture notes are always uploaded onto blackboard after a class or so. She's very efficient and you can tell that she wants her students to succeed. Light hw is given online, quizzes are in class, and exams are online but can be taken anywhere. I highly recommend her.

Dr. Zhang was one of my favorite professors this semester and I am taking her again for 112! Attend the lectures she uses iClicker and the quiz points are calculated into your grade. The lecture notes are available online, so print them and annotate the notes in class along with her.

Very straight-forward, so you know exactly what needs to be done in this class. Minimal homework, and the exams look exactly like problems done in lecture. I am taking her again for CHEM 112, but I would highly recommend only sticking with her if you like her style of teaching because it's easy to struggle if you don't.

She had a lot of resources online to help the students. She uploaded the class notes, both blank and with her individual notes, so even if you missed something/ didn't pay attention in class its easy to learn it again by yourself. The unlimited practice tests are SO helpful. If you put actual effort into studying it is hard to fail this class.

Professor Zhang is the nicest teacher ever. She genuinely cares about her students learning and wants everyone to make a good grade in her class. She provides lots of practice problems to help you prepare for the test. She is also the most accessible teacher I have had at USC and would highly reccommend her to anyone I know.

She is a pretty good chem professor. She is straight forward with what she expects and teaches the material super well. Chemistry is already pretty difficult but she makes it understandable and goes over a ton of practice problems.

A very difficult class, but Zhang does what she can to make the information digestible for students. Lecture heavy, but she makes all the notes online after the lecture. IClicker attendance is mandatory.

Dr. Zhang is a great professor, she really tries to help students understand the content and welcomes questions in class. Homework was not that bad. Utilize the practice exams she posts online. Put the work in and study and you'll be fine.

This class was easier then I expected, Zhang does a great job telling you everything clearly that will be on the exams. If you study like a week in advance you will be golden on the exams. The homework are simple and easy, and either buy the guided notes or look at them on blackboard as they are extremely helpful to do work on and follow the class.

Every chemistry teacher does the exact same thing because it's mandated by the university. Min is a super sweet lady and she tries her best to explain things well. She also gives unlimited generated practice tests, so if you memorize how to do the problems on those you can easily do well on tests!

She is very straight to the point and knows chemistry well. Some may find her hard because they choose not to pay attention or show up to class. But she is a very sweet lady and I would recommend her for the beginning chemistry classes.

Dr. Zhang was great at explaining the concepts and made it very clear how we were going to be graded. If you want an A just go to class, do the homework to get the easy points, and take lots of practice tests. The exams are exactly like the practice tests she provides.

Professor Zhang basically hands you a step-by-step sheet of how to get an A. Her lectures only include the info you need, the HW is just like the tests (not a lot of HW), there's a practice exam before every test that's just like the test, and if you go to class you'll get a 100 on every pop quiz guaranteed.

Chem is hard. Professor Min does an okay of making things understandable. You have to go to class, attendance is recorded and factored into your grade via Iclicker. A fair amount of homework. Sometimes the lectures go a little fast, and if you get behind you might get left behind. Lecture hall class (not her fault) so take that into account.

It's important to remember that this course is not individual to the professor. So, she is not the one making the powerpoints or the tests because everything is the same for all Chem 111 courses. That being said, she is amazing at delivering the content. The homework allows for so many opportunities to practice and is very helpful. Great Professor!

Prof. Zhang's lectures were quick-paced, but not difficult. Grading criteria are the same for all chem111 teachers. The practice exams are essentially the same as exams. If you show up and do the homework/practice tests, you should be fine. Zhang uses iClicker to record attendance and do quizzes in class. She tells you the answer for all quizzes.

I took Dr. Zhang for Chem111 and Chem112, and she is not as bad as what other reviewers have wrote. Both of the chemistry lectures had clear grading criteria and expectations. With all of the chemistry classes, you are provided with practice exams that help IMMENSELY. Any of the chemistry professors are good at teaching the content.

Dr. Zhang is a good professor and she tries her best to help you understand the subject. She usually has the slideshows printed and works through problems on the paper, which I thought was helpful. Occasionally she can be a little difficult to understand, but I would take her class again!

Goes over all the material needed and the homework is super helpful and an easy way to earn points. She is a bit fast paced, but every professor for this course will be because there is so much material. She always breaks things down in multiple ways so that everyone can understand. Her lectures are very helpful as well.

She is so easy to reach whenever you have a question and is very helpful. The class in my opinion was kind of difficult, but she always put her best effort into helping me.

Dr. Zhang was a great prof. She sometimes went a little fast, but she posts all of her lecture notes after class and was pretty easy to look at them while doing homework and figure out any difficult topics. She uses iclicker, but you can miss up to 4 classes. I would take her class again, as long as you study, you'll be fine.

Took her for 111 & 112. The material is difficult and it didn't help that Dr. Min goes through her lectures very quick. Going to the SI sessions helped me a ton. All powerpoints posted online. Homework due every week, but not difficult if you know the material. Practice exams are great. Not my favorite prof, but I'd def take her over some others.

I took her for CHEM 111 & 112, and even though she went through the material quickly at times I thought that she explained everything we needed to know very well. As long as you do the practice exams a couple times before each exam you will do very well in this course.

There is a lot of stuff to know for exams, but there are practice exams with questions just like the real ones. She explains things very well, is very approachable and accessible, and helpful with questions. I was worried since I took Luscomb for 111 but Dr. Zhang is very good at what she does. There are reference sheets for exams too!

Zhang is phenomenal! I'm taking organic chem 1 right now and she prepared me so well for the course! Lectures are fast paced, BUT she provides the most helpful examples with all formats of questions that you will see on hw or exams! Highly recommended the 3x a week 50 minute lectures. Do the practice exams, hw, attend lectures and it's an easy A!

Dr. Zhang is an amazing teacher who is passionate about teaching. She brings an uplifting attitude to her class. Her teaching style and pace were perfect. She made sure to go into detail about each problem, to ensure we understood. She made the content easy and digestible for the average student. However, she does have limited office hours.

She does go a little fast through the slides, but she will cover everything you need to know for the homework and exams. She provided the blank slides at the being of the term, and the class notes after every class. If you pay attention and do the practice exams a few times before the real test, you shouldn't have a problem getting a good grade.

I loved professor Zhang so much! I registered for her class next semester too. There's homework due weekly, but it helps with the exams so much and you get like 7 attempts. Attendance is mandatory, but Professor Zhang is very understanding. If you reach out to her, she'll totally listen and even will help change your exam time or day if needed!

Excellent professor and very approachable! Pay attention in class—it's the best way to do well! There is a lot of homework, but it is very straightforward and not hard! Do the practice exams—they are the best way to prepare for the tests. Very helpful on 1-1 instruction, if you have a question, she is very helpful!

Very good professor. You can tell she loves what she does, but does move quick at times. All slides are posted so it's easy to go back. Practice exams are the best thing because the actual exams are almost exactly the same.

Prof. Zhang's CHEM112 class is challenging but rewarding. She explains concepts clearly and the practice exams are super helpful. unstuck study was a game-changer for me - it made prepping for tests a breeze. Overall, a great professor to take for this course.

Idk why everyone's trashing this teacher but she's chill and is the only chem teacher to post annotated notes and test review study guides. All the low ratings are mad cause they bad.

She is very kind and provides the materials needed for success. Learning in this class requires studying, the homework provided is helpful for learning the concepts, and the practice exams are very helpful for preparing for the tests. The tests do not have "trick questions" and she makes the concepts clear in her lectures with thorough examples.

Professor Zhang is smart and funny. She is very passionate about chemistry and instills this in her students. The only downside is she has a strong accent and is soft-spoken, but once you adjust to her speaking patterns it's an enjoyable class. Like other chem classes blackboard is your best friend and with a little effort you can easily get an A.

Professor Zhang is a really sweet lady, but she has a strong accent and moves fast which can make the class difficult. She does post her notes after each class which is helpful. I had to mostly teach myself the information through the homework assignments and practice exams, but overall the class is very manageable. Easy A if you put in the work.

Really liked Dr. Zhang. She does not create the exams and cannot teach us exactly what's on the exams. The first exam is the hardest. Go to SI sessions, study all recitation questions, practice tons of problems, and don't get behind. If you can keep up with lectures, you understand. When I couldn't keep up, I knew I didn't understand the content.

Amazing prof!! Chem is naturally a harder subject but she does her best to clarify challenging topics. She's super willing to help. She provides a sheet of whats on the test, and doesn't try to trick you. Highly recommend!!

Super well organized and easy to follow class. She's a great lecturer but you do have to put in work on your own to learn the material. She's super flexible if you are sick or miss class and willing to work with students before or after class or other times. Really nice and wants you to succeed!

very dependent on your section's TA, but there are 6 labs (each with pre-lab worksheets and labs reports due 2 wks after lab) with 25 points of extra credit. lab reports are tedious but grading structure is clear, and blackboard is very well organized. most labs do not take the full 3 hrs

She does move fast but posts all her lecture notes. People say she is hard to understand but I didn't think so. She is one of the kindest professors I have ever had.
