CHEM1A . Price S P 8 Days Ago

Super easy class, especially with Scott Price. If you have a decent math background this class is light work. Very fair exams nearly identical to practice, if you take chem 1a take with price.

I love him so much. You could skip every lecture because the videos he posts are incredibly comprehensive. He's funny. He utilizes every minute of class. He wants you to succeed. I highly, highly recommend. Make sure you do the practice exams, they mirror the irl tests comprehensively.

CHEM1C . Price S P 3 Months Ago

The BEST gen chem professor by far. He explains things very well, and the tests are similar to the practice material. You have to PUT IN THE WORK and follow a solid study plan, but he provides you with everything needed to do so.

Price has done much more for me than any of the other chemistry professors. He has very strong lectures that are easy to understand and gives plenty of time to review examples. If you follow his study plan, you WILL succeed. Exams don't differ much in difficulty from practice exams, and he gives good explanations for in person questions.
