I had Price for Chem 1A and 1B and he is one of the best teachers I have ever had in my life. Very helpful, clear in lectures, encourages students to study hard and do well, and he likes to entertain us too with awesome demos. I've never heard someone who doesn't like him and he is so passionate about chemistry that it brings a smile to your face
The fact that Price isn't teaching Chem1C next quarter makes me so sad. He's a really good lecturer and he's very passionate about chemistry. He takes his time in lecture to make sure everyone understands the material and he always has office hours.
really good at getting concepts across and walking through calculations. funny and made lecture interesting. lots of demos too. by far my favorite chem professor so far.
If you have to take chem, Scott will be your best bet. I personally just struggled with the topic of chemistry, which led me to barely pass. But I know that had I gotten any other teacher, I would have failed for sure. Out of all the chem teachers he is the easiest and I found his lectures very clear and well organized.
He might be the best and most handsome professor in UCSB. He always seems confident in class and can provide you with clear demonstration of the stuff he is teaching. You will definitely love his class. Also, it is very easy to get a high grade in his class.
I would recommend him to everyone who is planning to take Chem course
Dr. Price is honestly the best professor ever. His lectures are super clear, and his demonstrations are super cool. Though I didn't get the best grade this quarter, an A is definitely feasible. He gives plenty of opportunities to replace bad grades, as he replaces a quiz and even a midterm. Gives partial credit on multiple choice exams too!
Best gen chem prof there is at UCSB! Go to office hours, he's helpful and easy to talk to. I was lucky enough to have him for 1B AND 1C even though he has only done it once before.
If you study the way he tells you to and stay on top of things from the beginning, you will be fine. Don't fall behind, its hard to catch up.
I love Professor Price dearly. He is probably one of the best educators I have ever has the privilege to cross path with. He will spend as many time as needed to explain a concept to you at his office hours and he is so good at explaining concepts too. His lectures are amazing, both entertaining and extremely helpful.
Amazing teacher. Just all around fantastic.
Dr. Price is amazing. Super tough going into chem first semester cold turkey but if you actually follow his study plan, go to CLAS, and make it to office hours at least once a week, you'll make it :)
Scott is the easiest chem professor. He is very funny and helpful! He wants you to pass. Chem was not my subject but if i studied harder i would of done better.
Absolute best teacher at UCSB. Prof. Price's lectures are clear, and although his tests are tough they're manageable if you study. He holds study sessions on weekends and truly cares about the success of his students. Oh and he's obviously super hot.
Scott Price is the best professor I have had here at UCSB. He really cares about his students' success. Gives so many resources and exam prep help. He is always clear, and curve helps you out in the end. He does such a great job of explaining calculations that you never have to read the book. I can't wait to have him again next quarter!
Price is a great guy. Extremely helpful and accommodating, as well as fun in lecture. Let me put it this way: he's the type of professor who is good enough at his job that you seriously consider switching majors. However, his tests are no joke. They are challenging, but also curved generously according to class averages.
Price amazing teacher. Not only is he more than happy to answer questions, but he takes time out of his weekend to hold review sessions to prepare his students for exams. He is a very clear lecturer and lays forth what you will be expected to know for tests. Since this class is math based, if you're good at problem solving, exams are no problem.
Best professor I have ever had and HOT but even if he wasn't hot he'd still be the best. So entertaining during lecture - does a lot of demos and has cute scripted jokes. So helpful and just great in every way I cannot think of a way that he could have made his class better. Tests are tough but he prepares you for them so it's fair!
Really cares about students, loves to mix humor into his lectures to keep students engaged. Good guy and good professor
He is really funny in class, I would definitely take his class again. GO TO HIS OFFICE HOURS. He is willing to explain as much as you want. Also, just loves talking to students in general,and he is really approachable. What he teaches in lecture is pretty much exactly what he puts on the tests.
Good guy and good professor, he is a really nice person and probably the nicest Ucsb professor that exists, however his exams are beyond impossibly difficult and most of the time he lectures at too fast of pace which confuses the class overall amazing professor he just needs to slow down the speed of his lectures A+++
Beautiful man & amazing teacher. Best chemistry teacher by far.
He's very funny although he does make the same jokes a lot. He makes chem a fun class to attend and I love his accent. Chem 1AB were very doable with Scott.
Scott is by far one of the best teachers I have had at UCSB. He's very approachable and I would definitely recommend learning chemistry from him. Anyone who didn't learn general chem from this man was missing out but he only teaches chem 1a and 1b. His tests are very fair so whatever work you put in is what grade you will get.
