I liked him a lot...studied hard an got an A...very good teacher

Really knows his stuff and always answers students' questions. A little hard to understand, so you have to pay attention to the lecture. The exams were mixed, the first two were easy, and the last two were extremely hard.

hard to understand b/c of his accent, but if you attend class regularly and take good notes you can do well. take him only if you can learn concepts; if you're into memorizing then get out now. nice teacher, but very intellectually demanding of his students. study, take notes, and GO TO CLASS.

you will get used to his accent if you concentrate. learned a lot, but tests are very tricky. you really have to know yoru material to do well. but its not impossible. oh yes, make sure you go to class

Lin is a good teacher. Like the other comments: hes not out to fail you, the material is very difficult and you must really study it in order to understand it.

He's got a pretty thick accent but a week into class you'll prob get used to it - it's a lot better than most! His tests are VERY tricky because he'll pick out the smallest details to ask questions but while in class, he is very helpful. He'll rexplain something if he has the time, and if not after class. He does cares for student progress.

Lin is not hard at all. he gives you the grade you deserve. study and dont fall behind. everythgin is in the notes. memorize everything. hes hard to understand at first but after a while, its ok. get on his good side beucase he likes smart kids

His final is HARD!!!!!! His concept questions sometimes seem to come out of nowhere too but if he tells you to memorize something from the powerpoint, MEMORIZE IT. He teaches well but his tests are NOT easy.

so far so good. he explains things clearly. just pay attention

ok heres the deal... hes not hard if u study.. u dont have to read the book just go to class and write down what he says and pay attention. for the tests study his slides and lectures inside and out and UNDERSTAND them. the questions come straight from that. if u know ur stuff hes just a reg pharm prof. key word... KNOW UR STUFF.. u cant read over

His finals are a nightmare!!! Beware of that last exam!

He's kinda hard cause he has a lot of tricks in his exams. Pay attention to his explanations in class cuz it shows up on his tests. Also memorize his slides.. and take advantage of the extra credit. You need all u can get .. don't mess that up for yourself.

He's a really good professor. He makes you know the material because you have to apply everything you learn in the profession. He makes you earn your grade. Listen to him, read the book, notes are optional(I didn't need them), and most importantly try to understand everything he's teaching (really helpful on ec quizes btw. then you'll get an A =D

Very good teacher with very straight forward test. Every question comes from the book problems or his lectures just know everything in his notes and the tests are easy. With that said if you do not study alot you will fail. Understanding everything is key.

his lectures are very helpful and he gives you everything you need to know for the tests - reading the textbook is optional. some of the questions are tricky but there are no surprises. the extra credits are a good incentive for keeping up with the coursework. A++ professor

He's the best Pharmaceutics professor. Make sure u take really good notes, and write down everything he says. His tests can be a little tricky, so make sure u UNDERSTAND wat's going on. If u understand, then u'll be good. Write good notes. Go to every class b/c he offers extra credit and it really helps. Memorize the slides too =)

biopharmaceutics is a hard class, but he does teach it well. u have to study or u will fail. unlike squillante and madan u will learn something and it will be useful in ur pharmacy career

He IS a difficult professor, but a great teacher. He has an accent, but it grows on you. I had him for both terms of pharmaceutics. He gives quizzes for extra credit (he used to ask questions in class for extra credit, but stopped bc it was the same people answering). His tests are FAIR, but you will need to read the book if he mentions it.

Lin packs many tricks up his sleeves, but is a very likable professor for those willing to learn. Must practice every math problem in the book, and one MAJOR HINT: this class is a preparation for the NAPLEX. Read BEFORE every lecture, since Extra Credit is based upon it. Raise your hand, speak your voice, and be active... not annoying. Oh, STUDY!!!

The material is pretty difficult and dense, but Lin manages to make it understandable and is very funny in class. The best part of his exams is that they are not K type questions, so if you arent a fan of those, you'll find Lin your cup of tea. he is also very open to questions during his office hours, and will try his best to help you. Excellent!

His tests are tricky, but has no K types. Make sure you understand the concept. The extra credit helps you a lot. Read ahead and answer questions in class. He is one of the better pharmaceutics professors. Makes the class entertaining, but he does speak fast. If you are smart, you can get A.

His questions are state board exam level and and his textbook is a must. The math you remember from pharmaceutics 1 will NOT be enough to save you here. You need to be able to apply the math to prescriptions, and his textbook is immensely helpful in showing you how. His concepts Qs are designed to trick you, and his extra credit is all or nothing.

Skip class and you will not pass. I literally studied day and night for his exams but managed to pull off a C+. You MUST read and solve the textbook questions, attend class to learn and take extra credit quizzes, and email him! Hes really nice :)

This professor prepared me for my boards. The BEST teacher in stjohns.

Best professor at st. john's. He's super smart and knows so much about biopharmaceutics. There are people that do get A's on his exams so don't listen to those puny reviewers who ended up failing the course and blame the professor. ;)

His class is really hard but he's happy to spend as much time as you need to help you. A bit harsh but really wants you to learn what you need to know for when you graduate. Pulls questions right out of the textbook and changes numbers, will give you all the information for each exam right at the start. You come out a stronger student in general.

Class was kind of hard but he's really a good professor. Explains everything well, very patient with the students and will work through whatever question you have. Very good with emails, you can send him any questions you have with the content and he will reply. Tough class but very good professor.

While he is a tough grader, and can be tough to understand at times (you will get used to his accent), he does care about students understanding the material. I recommend going to class because he explains alot of the conceptual and mathematical concepts in class. DO THE PRACTICE PROBLEMS IN THE TEXTBOOK! He really is sweet and down to earth!

great prof, good lectures. exams are difficult but you must know these things. He wants to keep the standard high for this profession and it is important to understand the concepts he teaches. He makes pharmacists great, He will make you increase the professional common sense that will be used throughout you're professional pharmacy life. Study !!!

retiring now, he will be missed. I wish you new kids wouldve experienced the horrors

One of the truly dedicated professors at St. John's, especially for PharmD majors. Ngl his class is tough, but I learned a lot. It's totally doable if you show up and pay attention P.S. Please don't retire—I want the newbies to feel the joy too!
