About this rating

Raw average: 3.00/5 from 13 quality ratings. The adjusted rating blends this with the UW review average (3.66/5), weighted as 20 additional ratings. Smaller samples stay closer to that average. Each captured review is counted once in the prior; this does not correct who chooses to leave a review.

CHEM 329
Quality 2/5Difficulty 2/5
No need to use the book. I felt that what he taught was not necessarily Analytical Chemistry. We learned little to no mathematical calculations and exams were ridiculous. He is a researcher first and a professor only because he has to be. Very unapproachable and focused on his own research in class rather than material.

CHEM 329
Quality 4/5Difficulty 2/5
He's a researcher first and professor second. Because of this, his class was pretty easy. A lot of people complained about him, but I thought he was knowledgeable and the class was never overwhelming.

CHEM 329
Quality 2/5Difficulty 3/5
Only teaches because its required for his job. Fairly hostile to students. Used last years exam when half the class was given it it section, completely unorganized and confused. If you get stuck with him make sure to get previous years final, he said he was going to use it again.
