Dr. Feldwinn was very helpful during her office hours. She really seemed to care about her students, however her tests were extremely challenging. Come to class early on test days so you get more time to finish, and for the love of God, do your book problems!!!

I came into her class not knowing any Chemistry (I slacked off in high school Chemistry), but I still managed to get an A. I actually understand Chemistry after taking her class. She is an amazing and super helpful teacher, but you still have to put in 100% effort. Best teacher ever!

Class was really hard. Studied a lot and ended up getting an A-.Avoid if you're a beginner in chem. My advice would be : Go to every lecture, do all extra credits opportunities,register for CLAS, do book problems,do practice exams and write down all the questions you got wrong and go over them again before the test.

Simply put, bad professor for a beginner. If you don't already know a lot about chemistry or lack a strong foundation prepare to work overtime. The class is very difficult because the professor expects you to know so much from high school. She does bad examples in class because she skips steps and assumes you know how. I'd avoid her if possible.

She is the worst chem teacher ever! If you have any interest in becoming a bio major do NOT take her class! It is extremely hard to pass no matter how much you study.

Dr. Feldwinn was BY FAR the best gen chem teacher I had. You can really tell she loves to teach and wants her students to get excited to learn chemistry. Her exams are difficult but she never tests on things she didn't go over in class. If you review her slides and practice exams, you'll get at least a B.

Professor Feldwinn is a hard teacher, there is no doubt you will have to work much more in her class. However, if you are a hard worker you should be thrilled to have her. She is a great teacher and extremely helpful. Her exam style is not multiple choice which prepares you much more for upper division classes.

the average for the first midterm was 43%. She is a terrible teacher. The average partially reflects her teaching skills.

I had her for 1A and 1C and overall I think she is a great professor but she definitely makes the class more difficult than all the other professors. Other professors give strictly MC exams but her's are 2/3 free response 1/3 MC so you really need to understand the material. She does curve the class though, so it's not difficult to get a good grade

had for all three quarters of gen. chem. best. professor. ever. she's a little hard but if you study like you're supposed to then its not that bad. tests are somewhat difficult but if you know the stuff then you should be fine. she is extremely helpful during office hours and very friendly overall and cares very much about her students. TAKE HER!

Horrible test maker. I understood most of the material up until the last two chapters and the final ended up being those chapters I didn't know. Seriously, her tests are unforgiving at best. A lot of free response and she expects you to study all the time for the class. There's extra credit opportunities, but it's not worth it. Switch out. Now.

Really good professor. Kept me awake even though it was 8 a.m. Her notes were pretty clear and she was always genuinely concerned for student's understanding of topics. Her tests are sort of too long to be able to finish in time so expect some problems left blank. Do ones you know first. Study book and practice tests, most problems will be on test.

Definitely not the easiest Chem professor out of the others. Her midterms and finals are all short answer while the other professors give multiple choice ones. The tests are not curved, but the entire class' grade is. Appears to be helpful, cares about the subject. Do book problems as they do tend to appear on tests. Good luck with this professor.

Not as difficult as everyone says. Just keep up with the book problems (do like 1 or 2 of the difficult problems a day) and you'll do great. Also, if you attend her review sessions, the midterms and finals become significantly easier. You also get a better understanding of material!

This class is a lot of work! If you're major involves anything with Chemistry, I suggest you take her, she'll have you go through every little detail. Other Chem professors are extremely easy, Anderson's and Petra;s tests are so much easier than Feldwinn's. This class carries the workload of two courses: Aleks being one and Chem Lecture, the other.

Very Enthusiastic Teacher, makes sitting through an 8am so much easier. The homework assigned and quizzes aren't too difficult, although the tests are challenging. The problems on the tests will be of a higher caliber than those done in class, so doing book problems is a must.

Avoid if possible. Very hard tests. An A is possible if you do the readings, book problems, and are naturally good at chemistry. The book problems WILL show up on tests so do them.

HARD TESTS. Quizzes are pretty simple though. If you took AP Chem you should be fine, but if you were like me and had it sophomore year, it'll be tough. Go to CLAS! It really helps. Go to lectures, too. iClicker points help make up a few points.

She's a nice person, but the class is very difficult. Try to take other professors if you're not a master in chemistry already. People who got A's are the ones who took AP Chem and aced it, or simply know everything about the subject. If you are a normal person with an average IQ, DON'T take her class! Take it if you were a genius.

She's very enthusiastic about chemistry, even at 8am. But the class is hard! Make sure to go to lecture (iclicker points!) and go to office hours. Do the assigned hw problems, they usually appear on the test. Read the book before class and if she says memorize something, do it. She's great, can tell she loves teaching.

Easy class, but watch out for the hard tests. Nice professor and easy class materials, but she lacks the ability to explain clearly. Overall not bad.

Great teacher, very enthusiastic and interesting. Her test are very difficult and the averages are low, but she curves the class. She has her power points online, but often times she teaches important things not covered in the power points in class. Also, do the "suggested" book problems, they reappear on tests.

not a good teacher, difficulty of problems she does examples for versus problems she tests does not scale right and she is a freaking hard grader; one of my answers was right but she nitpicked about one of the steps...

great professor, but extremely hard midterms, but you learn a lot and you it gets you into chemistry. very enthusiastic professor that knows her stuff.
