If you want to learn anything, don't take Swenson. Knows a lot, but doesn't teach you anything. He says it is not his job to teach students. Avoid if you can!

Comment:

i absolutely loved him as a teacher. we had a quiz just about every week but you could retake them as many times until you got an A. the answers were usually A all the way down. the tests were difficult but you take them in the computer lab at your own time so you could take your book and notes with you. easy pts. just by showing up. take him

Comment:

It was easy at first when he gave you the answers to the study gudies for the online quizzes. For the second half of the class YOU have to find the answers. That takes a lot of time. Need to buy book. He teaches nothing you need to know while lecturing. Extra credit is givin upon attendence in class. Not hard to earn a good grade cuz of ex-credit.

Comment:

I was very nervous about this class but as soon as we entered the class he made it very laid back and relaxed (even though some of the labs WERE NOT FUN!!!) He really tries to help you out grade-wise and notices when a student is trying. Do one thing right and he holds you up higher :) I'd take him for any lab, any day.

Comment:

If you don't get an A in this class you don't be long in school. Just go to class, do what ever he puts on black bord and you will pass. I would say you need the book for one or two homework projcts, but that's it. Take HIM it looks good on your GPA.

Comment:

If you dont get an A in this class, you must have either not went or you dropped the class. Its impossible not to get an A. He gives you 10 quizzes, all of which he gives you the answers and study guides to! You know the answers and the questions before you take the quiz. He posts all slides on Blackboard. I didnt even buy the book because you dont need it, unless he checks ur homework, then you can borrow it from a friend!!

All you have to do is show up and it is a pass 4 sure! He is kinda crazy with his stories and jokes, but take it if you know nothing about chem and want to pass newayz! Just do your homework and show up 4 class.

WOW. Learned zero chemistry, but the class was awesome. Go into it with a sense of humor (i think hes funny) and you'll survive. Just show up all the time and you'll pass for sure.

I hated this class!! IT was early in the morning, and all of his bs and jokes weren't funny. He thinks he is sooo cool! He is the rudest person I have ever met, and his tests are hard! If you don't have a clue about chemistry. All the football players were in my class if that gives you a clue.

My very first class. I played video games on my laptop half the time, still got an A. If you know Chemistry, this class will be a breeze, and opens you up to what the world has to offer.

He is the best teacher. He's so nice, especially if you know him on a personal level. The quizzes come straight out of the book and he gave my class a lot of extra credit. I highly recommend him!
