I would absolutely not recommend taking a class with Professor Feldwinn. Lectures are hard to follow, exams are very difficult, and the work load is completely unnecessary. Other chemistry 1B professors do not do quizzes, iclickers, use ALEKS problems on exams, and put such a big emphasis on book problems. We also got a terrible curve. Take Price.

A lot of mixed feelings about Feldwinn, she's very enthusiastic about chemistry and she's really easy to talk to if you're asking for help. On the other hand, her tests are impossibly hard and the questions she puts on the tests are so random. You have to study EVERY single book problem, every ALEKS topic, and in class problem to pass the tests.

I took Feldwinn for both Chem 1a and 1b and although she is a tough grader, she really prepares you for the rest of the Chem series and she's super available when you need help. Definitely be sure to go to office hours and review the in class problem sets she gives out because a lot of those are the test questions as well.

Ive had feldwinn for chem 1a & 1b and although her class is pretty hard shes also such a great professor! Shes very open to questions and going over any concepts. go to office hours & do book problems and you should be fine. a lot of questions on her test are similar to practice problems she gives and goes over in class

Shes an awesome professor! Most people complain and they say her class is too hard, especially since shes the only gen chem professor with free response tests. However, she gives partial credit and a lot of extra credit opportunities. She is super straightforward. Do the book problems and you will be more than fine!

Nice and interesting professor. Her lecture is clear and she is helpful outside class. Exams are graded strictly, which include free-response questions, but there are lots of extra credits so you'll be fine.
