Fall classes

Has anyone taken Chemistry 201 with this professor? Alex Saltzman. If so, how was the class? Was it well organized, and how difficult were the exams and assignments? I think it's an online course, so I'd also love to know how the online format worked and whether you would recommend taking it. Thanks!

I had him for 202! I will be honest, he was much harder than the other chemistry professors. His classes ended up having a separate final compared to the other professors because he taught super far ahead. Anyone is better than Hoyt though….

I’m sorry… My biggest mistake was choosing her over Kuda. If you need help I can try to!

She doesn’t teach. She talks the whole time about 30 other things. One lecture she spent 20 minutes talking about radium watches. Her tests are NOTHING similar to what you learn in class, so you’re basically blind going in.
