Dr. Price is a great great great professor. He genuinely wants to see you succeed and is probably the most approachable professor I've ever met. He makes his lectures interesting by sometimes doing cool experiments during class. Definitely take this professor you will learn to love the material.
OUTSTANDING PROFESSOR! Always entertaining demos and great teacher. He always encourages students to ask him for help when needed. Prepares you excellently for exams and quizzes. He teaches Chem 1A and Chem 1B. I almost cried when I found out that he doesn't teach Chem 1C.
Price is the best chem professor out of them all. You can tell he is passionate about teaching & chemistry. He is always professional, clear, concise, & sometimes really funny. I have a hard time with chem but he really helped me understand the material. He's super nice & approachable. I wish I could have had him every quarter for gen chem!
I had Price for 1A and 1B. He is really passionate in teaching chemistry, his lectures are clear and easy to follow. He posts his lecture slides online before class. 2 Quizzes, 2 Midterms and a Final. iclicker replaces lowest quiz and Final replace lowest midterm. Tests are somehow tricky but overall great professor! Highly recommended!
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.
