weekly hw & quizzes are feasible if you use the tutorials in the mylab hw & have quizlet. use chegg for the online midterms. the final dropped me a whole letter grade - what everyone says about the departmental final on reddit is true. prof's lectures hard to understand & don't help much w/ the final. i wouldn't take this.

-Easy weekly online HW&quizzes. -3 exams that are very different than the study guide and are all online. -Final is worth 30% and is a department exam. It will drop your grade A LOT. -Not a lot to be graded by. And no extra credit. -Taking it online isn't bad, it's just the department final that can make or break your grade. Hopefully he curves.

I don't know how his reviews are even that decent, I can't understand a damn word he says, all he does is read off the slides and its like just mumbling...I haven't learned a thing. On the first day of class I instantly regretted picking him.

All exams online except the Final, you can use online "sources" for online homework and quizzes. You can honestly do all of the homework and quizzes within the first week if you can power through it with your Googling skills. Then you just wait for the online exams to open and do those. Pad your grade as much as possible bc Final drops quite a bit.

Weekly HW assignments and quizzes, 2 midterms online, evaluation exam online, and final in person. Provides sample exams to help - similar problems on exam. Pad your grade with HW and quizzes if you can, final will drop you a lot. Might curve or drop lowest HW and Quiz. Put in the effort and you will be fine.

Take it online. Do the homework and quizzes. Easy points. The only tough parts are the exams. Final dropped me from a 90 to an 84.

Not sure how I feel about this professor. He is not absolutely horrible but nothing special. The exams after exam 1 are difficult even with study guides etc. Tutoring helps.

Professor Li is helpful if you do not understand some concepts, just email him. I took him online. Fin320 is confusing at first but do the hw and try your best on the quizzes and you'll be able to do well on his exam. His class is a benefit to students who work. I was happy with a B. I advise to the whiners to grow up.

Took this class online. Showed up for final and could barely understand him. Terrible accent. I hate how the whole class has a department final. Showed up with a 93% ended up with an 86. Unbelievable. Pretty much just online hw with quizzes that are nothing from his material. Terrible everything honestly.

Comment:

The professor just plays lecture videos in class and the first two exams are doable if you put in a little effort. However the departmental final is made for students to get a low score. Many students have said that too. I had a 92% before the final and it went down to 85%.

Comment:

This professor does not teach at all, just shows videos everyday in class (that he also posts online). He makes this class so easy to pass though. Homework and quizzes are online. 2 exams online, 2 on campus. He also let us re-do the 1st on campus exam online if we got a low grade. Final is killer, but do all the other work and you will be fine.

Comment:

If you're taking this class with him, treat it as an online class. Lectures are not helpful at all. Seriously guys, don't go unless there's a test. Speaking of tests, there were 4: 1 midterm in-person, 2 midterms and 1 valuation exam all online. Take advantage and pad your grade because the final will drop you down a bit. Homework weekly.

He only plays video in class and attendance is not mandatory. First exam and Final are in person; 2 valuation exams are on line. The first three exams are very easy. The final is hard. I recommend self-learner to enroll his class.

Professor Li's online class is nice and easy, just how I like it. All exams online except the final. At times you forget you have the class it's so laid back.

Comment:

Just finished the Final and this professor is so Lazy. 1st midterm and Final are in person and 2nd midterm+Evaluation are at home. Easy homework, easy exams. However, the final will hurt your grade by alot! doesn't prepare you and doesn't curve ( in comparison to other prof.) Went into final with a 92% final grade came to a 84%!

Take this class online, I barely tried and got a B! All three of the midterms were online open book and note and the final was in person. There is weekly homework and quizzes and he gives you a formula sheet and a pg of notes for the final exam. You will not learn anything but its a guaranteed pass.
