Fall 2017 - This is the first chemE class that I feel I've really learned something useful and practical. I really liked the Professor Lu's Lecture. It was very straight forward and easy to understand. He also really cared about student learning in his class and always tried to answer our question in the class or in his office hour. Like other reviews said the hw in this class was pretty time consuming, but it was very helpful to prepare for tests. Even though hw required Matlab code, it wasn't hard to do that because we could use a same code to do other problem. Unfortunately, the last lecture was canceled due to the fire alarm, and all the classes was cancelled at UCLA , so It wasn't Pr. Lu's fault. In general, this class was pretty good and organized. Even though the subject of this course is hard, the instructor made it easy to understand. So, in order to do well in this class, I really suggest to really learn hw and lecture notes.

Fall 2024 - I saw improvements from the professor that also taught 101B. Lecture summaries did its job on keeping me on schedule with the lectures and looking at the notes afterwards. However, I still think the homework assignments should have harder deadlines because it is hard to make them a priority amongst all other class work (when due at the end of the quarter). More in class practice problems would help versus strict theory and conceptual explanations of the course content. It is also expected that discussion would be attended as it is hosted by the professors and not TAs. Also, I found it very unfortunate that the one lecture I missed because I was very sick was the lecture where extra credit was given out to those in attendance.
