    Quarter Taken: Winter 2024 In-Person
    Grade: A

    Professor Ow is a great lecturer. The first half of the course was basically AP chem and the first midterm was easy. Although the contents started to get harder as we approached the second half of the quarter, they were manageable. There is no required homework for this class other than the mandatory discussion section's worksheet, but doing the extra recommended practices in the textbook definitely helps.
