Comment:

This professor is absolutely incredible, engaging, intelligent and always makes time to meet with you outside of class if you're having any difficulties. It's hard to come by someone brilliant who doesn't talk down to you but here he is. The class was tough and at 8:30 but I didn't skip a single class because of how brilliant the lectures were.

Dr. Adronov is an amazing professor who shows a love for teaching, and is very good at expressing difficult content in a way that is digestible and fun. He's relatable to students and is quite funny. Even though orgo can be quite tough or not everyone's cup of tea, he makes the content very engaging, and also shares fun facts every friday!!

Adronov is such a sweetheart it's almost unbelievable. His lectures are really clear-cut and he's an engaging professor. Go to tutorial to make sure you know everything though, his tests are an even distribution of ALL the material. ALL OF IT.

Dr. Adronov is an amazing professor. He's really approachable and helpful. Make sure you go to class and pay attention to what he's teaching. Review every night and you're guaranteed and A :) Coolest prof, although sometimes made mistakes in marking schemes etc. so check your answers and make sure you understand why you got something wrong!

Comment:

Very good as a prof, but the tests are too long. But if you do need to take organic chemistry, i would recomend him. The tests are though long, are reevaluated after and often the marks are bell curved, so don't freak out right after the test.
