Additional Comments
This class shouldn't be difficult but it is. Very little of the test is taken from the book most of it is taken from handouts he gives in class. They are hard to read because he underlines and changes the size of font and boldens words at weird points and repeats the same useless information five times so it's hard to find the actual useful information. He downs freshman and thinks that his is the superior chemistry class. His lectures alone make you want to rip your hair out because nothing is thoroughly explained without him getting off topic on some random details that mean nothing. The tests are 9+ pages of fill in the blanks and essays and if you put 6 and he wanted you to write half a dozen he'll mark it wrong. His questions are worded awkwardly and hard to understand. I wouldn't take this class again in fact I would run away if I had known. Now I'm debating whether I should withdraw or if I can manage to word things the way he wants. His extra credit is available but most assignments are a lot of work and few receive full credit because not all the steps were shown although the answer is completely right.
