Comment:
I loved Kathleen, she is an amazing professor and she really knows her stuff, and she took time to get to know my name. Organic is a hard class, but if you put in a lot of effort you will do fine. I have had both of the Trahanovsky's both are wonderful professors!

I didn't think this class was so hard. Going to the lecture is pointless. Final was based on the previous exams. The recitations and the SIs are what is helpful.

Comment:
She kinda rambled on-tests not based on her lectures. You have to read the book before class to have any idea what she's talking about. Do the 'recommended' problems on the syllubus to do good on her tests. Hard class, boring lectures (unless you're a chem nut, of course)

Terrible professor, didn't wait for understanding during lecture. Super confusing. Reading the book would have been more helpful than going to lecture.

Yuck, as if Organic Chem wasn't bad enough. Very unclear boardwork and notes confusing. Did not seem to be helpful towards students. Understood that the class was hard but didn't do anything about it

This class if fun. She explains well, and tests are only over what she says they will be. There are no surprises on tests.

I liked her. SHe was very nice and helpful- always held review sessions for exams. The lectures weren't that great- getting her notes offline and looking at those by yourself would work fine (if not better). Tests weren't unreasonable- I got an A in the class.

she sucks as a teacher.. she's the first teacher that's actually made me NOT want to go to class.. i got an A in 177.. and ended up getting a D in this class because I couldn't stand her... IT TAKES LITTLE TO NO EFFORT TO LEARN HOW TO TYPE... what a strange woman

Very poor teacher. The class is supposed to be difficult but not unreasonable. As far as partial credit goes, forget about it! She is so smug, for some reason she knows more than us students do and she enjoys it. You probably have no choice so good luck!

Much better at teaching organic chem than her husband. Lectures are boring, but at least understandable. Very willing to explain if you have problems or questions.

She kind of explains things in a way that is hard for most students to understand.
