    "comment": "Dr. Trate is an amazing professor. Her lectures do move quickly, but the content is the same as in the book. She makes a clear effort to get to know her students and engages in in-class discussion during lectures. She and the TAs will float around and answer questions during work time. \n\nI would 100% recommend Dr. Trate as a 104 professor.",

Your outcome in the class is more dependent on your participation and studying than anything Dr. Trate is responsible for (keep in mind it's a giant class with many lecturers).

I honestly find watching lectures on my own time more helpful because I can slow it down and go back when needed. The tests are also pretty difficult, but it's Gen Chem. TopHat is big!",
