You may not have enough individual attention since this is a big class. However, the lectures are very clear, and if you need any help - they are always there. He gives so much extra credits, my final course percentage went over 100%, so yeah! Great professor!

I'm very glad I had Greenbowe for my first semester, he really does care and it blows that this was his last semester.

Amazing lecturer but, he will make you work like crazies for your score, numerous quizzes and homeworks a,d tests. If you take his class you will understand everything about chemistry but will need to detach from your social life

One of the best teachers I have had at Iowa State. He explains the topics very well and tells jokes to make the class interesting. It isn't too hard if you pay attention and complete the homework assignments.

I can say with confidence that Greenbowe was by far the best professor I've ever had at Iowa State. He keeps his lectures entertaining yet still relevant to everything that we need to know. He makes topics easy to remember by relating them to real life situations, & puts all of his lectures on BlackBoard which is great for reviewing before exams.

Greenbowe was hilarious and he usually kept me interested. His class was tough for me because my high school did not prepare me well at all for college level chemistry. My friends who took AP Chem in high school were fine. I had to work my butt off to get an A. I had a tutor and went to every SI session. Just make sure you study and work hard.

Great Professor. Relatively entertaining lectures that taught the material well. As long as you paid attention in class (there are easy clicker pts) and did the online homework you could get a decent grade. There are also plenty of resources to study from such as SI and the book problems listed. I did neither, which is probably why I got a B.

Greenbowe is hilarious. He was always cracking jokes but he also did a good job of teaching. I loved going to chemistry because of him. I highly recommend him! The class isn't hard if you pay attention during the lectures.

He makes funny jokes but is hard to follow and goes out of order when teaching topics in class. Haven't had chem for 3 years so it was hard to keep up, if you take AP Chem you will be fine otherwise you're going to have to study!! Oh and NEVER used my textbook I wouldn't buy one!

He is humourous at times, has helpful, funny hints to remember topics. Occasionally isnt there to teach, so the head TA teaches. He is god awful; might as well not go. The tests are fairly easy if you know how to study.

Greenbowe was very humorous, and always prepared for lecture. It isn't the most interesting of subjects.. but he does a pretty good job. Tests aren't that easy, but they aren't terrible

Greenbowe is fully prepared for lecture. He tries to teach the concepts to a level that will be understood by the students. He likes to liven the lecture up with lots of jokes and also interacts with us to make sure we are understanding the concepts. Take CHEM177 with Dr. Greenbowe

Greenbowe is really passionate about chemistry and he makes lecture flow smoothly most of the time. He is very understandable and makes a lot of dorky jokes, puns, and comments! He interacts with students more than other professors in class.

it is a good pro, that is my opinion. But actually, I think that masteringchem helps me a lot. Not the pro.
