JOSEPH C A
Crisjoe is by far the best lecturer in the chemistry series. However, his tests are the hardest. I have sylvester now and joseph has everything SO organized. I am still watching his youtube lectures for 1c. WATCH THEM. before each lecture and as a review. He is so caring, understanding, and kind. Everyone loves Crisjoe! Tough class
most heinous tests imaginable. Great lecturer but tests are way hardee than other professors.
Huge tip: Watch the lecture vids and take notes before class, then go to lecture and just listen to him talk while annotating. Exams are very difficult and require you to not just know HOW to do every problem but to actually know WHY you are doing it. If you do all book probs and practice tests + pay attention in class you'll do great.
I LOVE JOSEPH GENTLEPEOPLE. Silly and uses real-life metaphors/situations that make us laugh but also help connect to material. He lectures a bit fast in terms of slide speed but everything is posted. He takes the time for questions & answers them. DO ASSIGNED BOOK PROBLEMS AND HIS PRACTICE TESTS! he takes questions directly off of them.
Chem 1B is a hard class but Joseph makes it very easy to manage. He has very clear lectures and posts slides for every single chapter. There are 2 midterms and a final, with the lowest midterm replaced by the final if it helps you. He's the best general chem teacher in my opinion.
GOAT. Do the ALEKS! It will do nothing but help your grade and help you learn the content. Do his book problems, they will prepare you for the exams! Joesph is a fantastic lecturer and just a fantastic guy generally.
Gentlepeople, chem is a difficult subject no matter who your prof is. However, Joseph is a good lecturer and the class is structured fairly. The midterms are 25% and the final is 30% but the final may replace your lowest midterm. ALEKS (hw) can be annoying but is very manageable. If you do the book problems and practice tests, you will succeed.
I had Joseph for 1A and 1B, and he was a great professor for both! He has a way of explaining concepts in the easiest way to understand. Chem is hard no matter who you have, but Joseph is def the best. Like 1A, his 1B tests are heavy on book and practice test problems, so study those well. Would've gotten an A if i didn't bomb the final lol
i took joseph for 1A and 1B and the class is obviously hard but you can tell joseph genuinely wants everyone to do well. i really like his lecture style and also just think he's a good person as well as prof. while chem is hard i believe the grade you get in his class reflects the work you put into it and i would recommend joseph 100%
Dr. Joseph is definitely one of the best chem lecturers ever. Very nice and accessible outside of class. However, it is hard to get an A in his class. Midterms were calculation focused, but the final is more concept focused, which made it a lot harder. If you took AP Chem, you will do okay. But you need to build a deeper understanding to get an A.
Joseph is a good professor for those who have a strong background in chemistry. His tests are hard, and he is a very big fan of book problems, but you will most likely succeed in his class if you have taken AP chemistry or are passionate about chemistry. I didn't do well in his class, but it was because his teaching style wasn't for me personally.
Chem 1A with Joseph was very nice. He was a solid lecturer and loved answering questions for students after class. Do the book problems (like every book problem. He has a youtube channel with all of his lectures for Chem 1A-C (theyre identical). Lowest midterm is replaced by the final, and the final is pretty easy compared to midterms.
