No proper sync between lectures. Giving random information expecting that everyone knows. Slides are unorganized most of the time. Every lecture presentation looks causal and unorganized

Padma is a fantastic lecturer, she had very clear lectures and tried her best to explain complicated stuff through examples. Loved the class in general and it was not super tough.

My roommate cried due to taking this class. Dr. Padma Gopalan: 1) Never replies to emails from her students 2) Ignores students feedback from in-class polls 3) Gives unkind, unconstructive, and belated comments on students presentation 4) in general does not seem to care and is unreachable

Lectures were difficult to follow

Really nice prof. She a master of what she teaches!!

I really liked her class. She's smart. Takes interest in students and took the time to answer my questions even after office hours. I hope I can take some of her other classes too in future. As for accent, I didn't find it to be a big problem (who doesn't have an accent in US of A!!)

Average. Has an accent, but you become used to it shortly. Problem sets help greatly with exam preparation, but material at end of class is rushed, so final is difficult to prepare for. Get a P-chem book (Adkins), she loves it like her 3rd child.
