the actual class is pretty easy if you put in the work, but he makes the final RIDICULOUSLY hard for no reason, then gives little to no curve.

Your experience completely depends on your lab partner and TA. Some TAs grade harder than others. I got lucky with my TA (Rose Mary) and I had a good lab partner. The lab was easy, but the exam was a curveball. Study every. quiz. question. Don't trust the lab review they give you, it is much easier than the exam. Go over lab reports and pre labs.

The class itself is not too difficult, but there is a LOT of homework, especially for a 2 unit course. I didn't have a lot of trouble submitting assignments like others did, but I will say that sometimes I had more work for CHEM1AL than CHEM1A. TAs don't really give feedback on assignments, which is annoying, but manageable.

I've never ever seen this prof, since the lab is taught by the TAs, so I'm just rating the class. The class honestly isn't super hard, as long as you take time trying to understand the concepts. The submissions are a little tricky. Try to build up the most points during the quarter so you can tank the final, bc it's super difficult for no reason.

Work was just extensive, you have to do it together or you cant complete it. Then, when you do complete it, you spend hours out trying to figure out where to submit it. Then, when you submit it, you realize during break u submitted to only 1/2 programs so none of your discussions are graded. Then, you email the professor and they ghost you! Fun!

Im not sure if it was always like this, but submitting assignments was incredibly difficult and confusing. Perhaps its because the school changed to using Canvas. The class is incredibly unorganized online and I pulled my hair out trying to figure out where to post my work. It doesn't make any sense.

The labs are easy enough as long as you watch the videos and leave enough time to complete the prelab assignments. However, the final exam was extremely hard and the study guide did not prepare us at all for the test. The lab manual will mark questions wrong on lab reports even though the answer is correct. Professor does not respond to emails.

No one knows who this professor is. Emailed the professor about 8 times as well as my TA, not a single response. Errors on my due dates, grades, no response. Now I am losing points for their mistakes. The final was ridiculously hard. Some TA's give grades that are very unfair, whereas others grade way easier, putting others at an advantage.

the class itself was easy but the final was horrible it was nothing like the practice tests or the class. apparently last year everyone got A's and so the prof was told to make his final harder so it was an actual joke this year. final grade isnt out yet but ive had an A all quarter and it may go down to a B if there isnt a curve

The class itself was a lot of work but very doable. However, grading criteria is not clear for any assignment. A group of students can work together on it being lab partners, and one will do significantly worse for no clear reason. The final was very difficult in comparison to the practice. The Professor does not respond to emails either.

I'm one of the few people who have actually seen him as I went to his office hours. Super nice guy who is very helpful and even gives you a snack for coming. Labs are whatever, unless you watch the videos you will be lost. Grading basically depends on how much of a tweaker your TA is. Go to a TA's office ours to discuss the lab and get answers.

hate this class....so much work for what? measly 2 credits....also the quizzes are excessive: 5 question quiz every week...get one wrong ur down 10 pts already...whats the point?
