I've never worked harder for a class than I did for 605. Weekly problem sets, lots of take home quizzes, a few exams. Very time consuming, but it was one of my favorite classes I've taken. Hans is an amazing professor.",

During his courses I feel as though I have broken barriers and actually have become smarter, as well as better at all of my courses. His tests are very difficult, but they are extremely fair.",

    "comment": "Has been teaching for 40 years, so it's all old hat for him.  Can go too fast at times so reading ahead of time helps.  Always copy your notes after lecture and ask questions.  Always has exam questions about ranking reactivity/acidity/etc. of different compounds.  Tests are fair, and he definitely knows his stuff.  Great guy as well.",

    "comment": "Brilliant man, but he didn't explain things completely and would often draw arrows with &quot;chemistry&quot; written above them to finish a mechanism. He didn't really connect the class material and the tests were nothing like he covered in class. Also had to pay to do online homework which was only somewhat helpful.",

    "comment": "If you like O-chem, you should definitely take all of Prof. Reich's classes. (Yes, we did, though the class number only says 605). Seriously, he is most incredible and intelligent professor we have ever had, and &quot;students&quot; are his No.1 priority. He made extra time for us, and he has been extremely helpful in every question we've asked so far.",
