CHEM 109
Quality 4/5Difficulty 3/5
He was a great professor but the class is hard. If you haven't taken AP, I wouldn't recommend but as far as professors go I loved him.

Quality 5/5Difficulty 4/5
Professor Keutsch is a great teacher. He is very enthusiastic and keeps his students interested. He does a pretty decent job of explain some of the tougher concepts also. However, this is a tough class. Definitely need a chem background. The labs are every week. I would definitely take a chemistry class with Keutsch again if I had the chance.

CHEM 109
Quality 5/5Difficulty 3/5
Chemistry is never an easy subject but Keutsch made it amazing! His lectures were always interesting and the only thing that I would complain about would be that he would leave occasionally for conferences. he has a slight German accent but you get used to it. Its a hard class but if you put in the time you see results.

CHEM 109
Quality 5/5Difficulty 4/5
Professor Deutsch has been my favorite professor from college so far. Although his course was not easy, there was no reason anyone couldn't do well if they put in the time with the given resources.

CHEM 109
Quality 2/5Difficulty 3/5
Keutsch is a great guy and makes lectures very interesting. Several test questions come from lecture material, and you have no way of getting those questions right without going to lecture, so pay attention and you'll do fine.
