CollegeEasy class that he makes hard but the curve is fat like really fat so it evens out
He is an amazing lecturer, but his tests are super difficult. However, he is a very kind and compassionate professor who is understanding of extenuating circumstances. He actually cares about his students.
He is a good professor as in he knows what he is teaching and can provide amazing real life examples of what he is teaching but the examples he covers in class are so much easier than the homework problems or the exams. Two midterms, one final and the questions on these exams were the same difficulty as the homework problems or even harder.
Buratto is a very knowledgeable professor who gives clear lectures. His homework does not offer partial credit, so it's important to make sure that your calculation is accurate. HThe exams are not so hard - if you go over the homework problems you will be fine. His OH is helpful and he replies email really quickly.
Probably one of the best professor in the chem department. He is very clear during lectures, and gives you the best preparation to study and do well on the exams. You really learn chemistry in his classes. Really good professor.
Buritto is great. I had him for AnaLITical last fall and honestly I've missed being in his class. Sure it's a hard class with tough grading, but you learn your stuff and his exams are exactly like the homework, so you are more than prepared. I'm actually excited to take a class with him next quarter even if this isn't my exact field of chemistry
