CollegeMultiple 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
This class is absolutely insane and ridiculous. Never had a professor worse than Feldwinn. If you want to see cute smart guys, take the class, otherwise you're getting nothing else out of it but a teacher who is not nice, doesn't grade well, and will curve grades by accident! Because of this class I'm going to switch majors. UGHHH IM SO MAD.
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….
Amazing teacher who obviously loves teaching chemistry but makes it almost impossible to get a good grade. Curves down too
