    Quarter Taken: Spring 2023 In-Person
    Grade: A

    As long as you follow the rubric for lab reports (pre/post) it should be pretty easy to score an A. Additionally, lecture is useful to go to to learn more about procedure and upcoming topics for lab. Midterm and Final were easy enough if you understood lab procedure/lectures.

    Quarter Taken: Spring 2023 In-Person
    Grade: A

    Lectures included an experiment at the beginning which was helpful to see how the theoretical chemistry actually functioned in real life. Instructor was very clear on what she lectured about and the midterm and final reflected this. Majority of the grade determined by effort in lab section.

    The class is quite easy if you focus in class and go through the readings, but make sure to stay consistent
