He is popular for a reason. Best thing about him is that his class and especially the review sessions are organized and timely. He cares about students in OHs too. Great professor. Homework and stuff should be all the same regardless who you take.

I was super stoked to take this class because Pham has one of the highest ratings for this course, however I felt a little disappointed. His accent + the mic + his mask made it very hard to understand him, and although that's an uncontrollable situation, I found that if I zoned out for 2 seconds I could no longer follow along. As someone who sometimes struggles with maintaining focus for extensive periods of time, I ended up learning more from my TA and review sessions than I did actual lectures.

This class was still very interesting and there were still a lot of extra credit opportunities to help bump final grades up. DO THE EXTRA CREDIT! You won't regret it; grades are based on total points, so those extra few points can make or break your grade.

Professor Pham is one of my favorite professors that I had last quarter. You can tell that he genuinely cares about his students and he is always a very helpful resource. This class has a lot of pre-class work of taking notes and reading on LaunchPad, it is a lot of work but it's manageable. The 7 series tests are pretty challenging, but an A is definitely attainable in this class.

Professor Pham was an incredible professor. He was super patient with everyone and would spend hours helping students outside of class. The class itself has some busy work, but I could not recommend taking LS7B with Professor Pham more.

GOAT as usually. Cares a lot about whether students can learn well, and he also does the work into making information clear. He may either do lecture recordings of more content or do faster lectures and have you all ask questions during OHs. Either way, he is very helpful and clear. Exams are the same for all and can be quite hard. Regardless, passing is easy since relatively no brainer homework and labs should earn you a significant portion of points guaranteed.

SUCH A FUN CLASS AND AN AMAZING PROFESSOR! Pham was the absolute sweetest and one of the best professors I've had here. He really cares about his students and answers every question we have. His exams are very easy if you do the past exams that he posts on CCLE, because the question types are very similar. The class gets harder in the second half of the quarter, but still doable if you don't get behind. The only negative thing I have to say about this class was that we were a little behind, so we weren't able to get through all the material which I was looking forward to. But this might have just been for this quarter! Definitely recommend taking with Pham!

Dr. Pham is an incredibly kind and understanding professor. The concepts in class are relatively easy to follow as long as you watch the pre-class videos, which help to explain the various question types. Even if you do not watch the videos and cram them the week of the exam (I did), you can still grasp the concepts. His grading scheme is generous, since he gives you the opportunity to earn back 5% on each exam via an extra credit quiz. His exam questions are solely based on the online practice exams and previous quarter's exams, which he provides. As long as you are able to complete and understand all of these questions, you should be well prepared to get an A in the course. I did find the bacteriophage genetics to be somewhat harder to understand, but I was able to comprehend it well enough by the time the final came. However, I would say that having a strong foundation in algebra and probability definitely benefited me in terms of understanding course content, since there is a lot of room for error when completing the problems. Overall, if you get the chance, I would take this class with Dr. Pham.

Dr.Pham deeply cares for his students who take his course. He makes sure to answer your questions thoroughly and is open to feedback on the structure of his class. I loved going to his class as he made genetics so much more engaging, and he oftentimes stays late during his OHs to make sure every student is cared for. I highly recommend taking his course when he is teaching 7B. An absolutely wonderful professor!

Very sweet professor, I found him quite wholesome. He does have a slight accent but it's not too hard to understand him. Overall class was easy to me, might be somewhat dependent on how lucky you are with groups, since the tests are group. I did find the tests relatively accurate to the material (make sure you study your clicker questions!) Workload is meh, there's quite a few things you have to do but definitely very manageable.

This class was pretty easy, and Dr Pham is really sweet, helpful, and definitely cares about his students' learning. It is a flipped classroom (content videos done before lecture, and then lecture is spent doing practice problems), which I personally don't like, but as long as you keep track of what assignments you have to do, it's fine. The videos are good at explaining the content, and Dr Pham does a good job clarifying and expanding on them. The tests were basically the same questions (but with different specifics) as the practice tests, lecture iClickers, and discussion worksheets, so as long as you actually show up and do your work, you'll 100% be fine in this class
