Comment:
You can read the textbook; go to lecture; use study guides, practice tests, and practice questions and still not get an A on a test. Neither Dr. Xu nor the textbook seemed to provide enough information for you to draw the conclusions needed on tests. Dr. Xu seems like a caring guy, but he just isn't a good teacher.

Mr. Wu will help you as much as he can. He provides a lot of practice exams and quizzes which are very similar to the ones in class. He only asks for one thing: Do the homework! Although it is optional It is a difference between getting an A or not. Show up, Do the homework and practice exams and you will most definitely get an A!

Comment:
Dr. Wu is an amazing professor. He writes all of this notes out on the chalkboard which gives you ample time to write them down. His exams are hard, but he usually curves the tests. If you learn all of the material taught in class, you should do well on the exams. Dr. Wu cares about his students, and he is a great teacher.

Wu Xu was the greatest teacher I have ever had. He cares so much for his students and really wants his students to learn and understand the material. quizzes are word for word homework questions. tests are a little hard. gave a study time outside of class on a Sunday to make sure his students knew the material for the test the next day. THE BEST!!

Comment:
If you can get your hands on old tests for this class, you'll do perfect. He already gives you one old one! otherwise his lectures are definitely not enough to do great, but he grades super lenient. His tests were all multiple choice and if the question was worth 3pts he'd only take off 1 if it was wrong. Super super sweet guy!

Dr. Xu is the most genuine professor I have had thus far. He cares about what he teaches and cares about each student, even with his large class sizes. Biochemistry is a difficult subject to learn, but he gives old tests online to go off of. His tests are difficult, but only because this is an upper level class and one must use application of info.

Very good professor. Chemistry is not an easy subject for me, but I did the study guides he put on moodle and made an A. He's very nice, and it's obvious he wants you to understand what he's teaching.

He really cares about his students. Gives 4 exams and 4 quizzes. He posts his old exams and usually recycles about 50% of old questions. Look over the homeowork fo quizzes. The final was stupid hard, but his curves if his class average is low. Final was 50 M.C. and 4 problems. M.C all involved math. He gave us 3 hours to do the final. Great teacher

You have to go to class to take the notes he gives but his tests are straight from his notes. No need to buy the book unless you think you'll need more clarity but he explains everything well and was always willing to help students after class and whenever he could. He'll even do group study sessions to prepare you for the exam.

not really a good teacher. he means well and he tries, however i find myself teaching myself the material. he is nice and will help you if you go to his office. i recommend taking him if you aren't good at chem, bc he gives you the old tests and study guides, so you know exactly how the test wil be

Sweetest man ever! He will help you with any and all questions. He makes your life so much easier, and gives you old quizzes/tests that are practically identical to new ones. Take him for any chem class that you see him teaching it will be super easy!

He is amazing! Super sweet, and wants you to de well. He gives bonus for attending every lab, and is always available for questions. He offers his help at all times, and truly gives you an A for effort. I'd major in chemistry if he taught all the classes.
