Additional Comments
Dr. Conte is a nice guy, but he has an extreme difficulty explaining the material to his students. Many times during lecture he would mess up problems, get side-tracked, or just go back to chemistry I material. He would only do one problem in class as an example, but would assign many different variations from that problem for homework. This wouldn't be a problem, but titrations and buffers are very similar entities and it's extremely easy to confuse the two, which many people bombed that exam due to his lack of lecturing skills.

The logistics of the class: There are 5 exams, with a total of 75 points on each one, he grades the exam out of 70 though (yay for 5 points of extra credit). Additionally there is a final exam that is cumulative over chemistry I and chemistry II material. It isn't too hard, but you need to study for it regardless. Get the ACS book!

Overall, if you have to choose between him and Dahl...I would choose Dahl.

Read the textbook if you every get lost, it really makes up for the lack of preparation and lecturing ability of Dr. Conte.
