Even though the exam is tough, Feldwinn's lecture is interesting because she prepared experiment each lecture.

Multiple opportunities for extra credit and her grading was made in a way to get you lots of points back. Three midterms and 4 online quizzes, but your lowest midterm gets dropped if you score higher on the final. Prof. Feldwinn cares a lot about her students, so if you're struggling make sure to go to office hours and do the book problems!!!

Before taking this course, I ate, slept, and breathed chemistry. I now have nightmares about the subject. She has zero compassion for her students. She makes the class impossible to succeed in and entirely about your ability to memorize specific problems. I missed one problem on an exam and got 15% off my score. No partial credit. The lady's evil

I would say this professor's grading policy is not reflective of a students intellect and ability but rather their ability to study specific questions and remember a specific answer. There is no partial credit awarded on exams and don't let the “every question tested you have seen before” fool you into thinking you're safe…. She assigns hundreds

This professor is amazing. Professor Feldwinn alongside the TA Carolyn made this class fun and worthwhile! Carolyn was able to explain concepts amazing and is truly passionate about helping students. I would recommend Professor Feldwinn to anyone who wants to learn chemistry from a passionate teacher! Also generous grade bumps. ie: F->C, D->B….
