CHEM 103
Quality 5/5Difficulty 2/5
This guy is literally the best chem teacher I have ever had! His lectures are very interesting and he presents the material in a very clear way. Lots of points to boost your grade from pre class assignments and homework. Have I mentioned how hilarious and adorable this guy is?? Just a genuinely nice guy who cares about his students and chem!

CHEM 103
Quality 5/5Difficulty 1/5
Prof Schmidt did a good job of keeping a very large chem 103 class engaged. He is a good teacher (always available and cares for the students) and his grading policies are all very fair. Would definitely recommend him!
