CHEM 104
Quality 3/5Difficulty 3/5
Knows her stuff, but she has a super cold personality. Take good notes and rely on your TA. Exams aren't too bad, and she doesn't try to trick you

CHEM 104
Quality 1/5Difficulty 5/5
Dr. Batterton was the WORST prof i have ever had. She's rude and expects her students to understand the material to their fullest potential, despite the fact that she may not even go over some topics. Her exams were very hard and she was very unapproachable.

CHEM 104
Quality 3/5Difficulty 4/5
She tells you to study off of the old exams that are posted online, but when you take the exam you realize her old exams are much easier. She said she expects more of her students each semester. Also, she will try to trick you on exams. Her last midterm was too long and hard, even my TA said so. And her final was absolutely ridiculous.

Quality 3/5Difficulty 4/5
WARNING At first I thought she was an average professor, then I went to her office hours. She is the most unapproachable lecturer I have had in my 4 yrs. She's cold & not willing to listen. She's not reasonable, she's not nice, she does not care about you. At all. Period. Also, if she ever has any chance to ruin your life, she will do it. No doubt.

Avoid her if you can unless your girlfriend forces you to take it. She thinks that students must know everything....
