Learned a lot but it is almost impossible to get an A in this class.

Never take her. Never take her class. She made me sit in a WET seat during an exam because there was a leak in the building. She is also a horrible professor. Never take her class.

So much extra credit and the problems for the midterms are exactly the problems we do in class (iclickers, notes, etc), before class, aleks, book problems, quizzes, and midterm practice. The answers are the exact same. It does take a lot of work and time to do all the problems but I promise if you just do all the problems assigned you can pass.

If you can get a diff chem teacher, do it. She lectures too fast, quizzes are hard, and her tests have FRQs with no half credit. Office hours are semi-helpful, but she's mostly just yelling in your face lol. But if you're stuck with Feldwinn, just LOCK IN. Go to every lecture, do your book problems, sign up for CLAS. Good luck

Save yourself; don't take her class. Her exams are super difficult -- there are a lot of free-response questions, but she only grades your final answer. Her class is significantly harder than all the other chem professors'. If you don't understand every single textbook, in-class, and Aleks problem, you're screwed. CLAS is the only reason I passed.

Feldwinn 1B would be an okay class if we were on a semester schedule…but we're not. She gives an unbelievable amount of homework for being a gen chem class and her syllabus is nothing like the other professors. She also puts a midterm on the last day to withdraw so if you think you're going to fail don't wait for your scores to come out just drop.
