I took Dr. Cortez over the summer and had a good experience with her. She is super tough and is not an easy prof to take. Her tests are tricky and lengthy. One of the best things about her is she teaches the subject really well. If you study hard, do practice problems and ask for help you should do fine in her class. Highly recommend her.

She's the best organic chemistry 1 professor in the school. She encourages for her students to learn and tries to make class fun. Also don't be afraid to ask questions because she just wants you to understand the concept. Organic chemistry itself is hard, but if you do your work, show that you care about your grade, and work hard, you'll be good

Hard class, hard teacher, she asks you to be very specific to what she ask in their labs and presentation. Hard tests, but she is the best professor for organic chemistry.

She's an average prof... there aren't many to choose from for ochem so u prolly won't have much of a choice. She is clear and lectures very well, however if the semester starts to crunch she will zoom thru material and expect u to do well.. no curves on an exam 99% of class failed.. never gave final/presentation grades .. she's nice tho...

Dr. Cortez is an amazing professor, she is clear and organized. Always willing to help you, Took chem 1 and 2 and org 1 with her and I learned a lot. If you want to learn chem, she is the one to take. She gives you a lot of work, BUT PRACTICING IS THE ONLY WAY YOU WILL LEARN CHEM. Will teach u how to write great lab reports, don't complain.

Be prepared for a lot of work. I am used to working hard for a class but she was ridiculous. She's not very patient and tends to get easily annoyed. I'd recommend another professor who actually enjoys teaching. If you have no other choice then good luck.

She is a good professor and is always willing to help. She is always available for help. She is very picky about chemistry. When you do your calculations PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT YOUR ARE DOING AND PUT YOUR UNITS. She takes off points even if the answer is correct but without units. She gives you a lot of HW but they help on the test. Lots of work!!!!

Dr. Cortez one of the best professors in the Chemistry Dept. She is the most helpful and honestly the most amazing individual I have encountered throughout my whole college experience. She is not easy but explains very well and never denies help outside the class... I'm taking her this coming semester from Chem II and then organic :D

Dr. Cortez is one of the best teachers I have ever encountered in my academic career!!! She cares about her students and is always asking for input on ways to make her class easier. I graduated from UT and do not feel there was a natural science prof as excellent as Dr. C!!! She is hard, but very fair! In my opinion she is the epitome of a prof!!!

Dr, Cortez is an amazing professor!!!! This class will not be "easy," but org chem is not an easy subject. For those students who are planning to take an MCAT, PCAT, or any other standardized health professional entrance exam, then I strongly urge you to take her!! The will be challenging but it ias worth it!! I looked forward to going everyday!!!

Dr. Cortez is awesome! You will definitely learn Organic via quizzes, tests, and labs! Had her for summer - went fast but she kept class on pace and still made it understandable. Related key points to premed students and stressed what to know for mcat. Really wants you to succeed. Not the easiest professor you will have, but one of the best!

Dr. Cortez is one of the best professors I've had. She teaches very well and makes sure you understand the material. She's always available outside of class, and always willing to help. She offers plenty of extra credit as well. As long as you learn the material you'll do well on the exams. Make sure to learn significant figures!!

If you take a chem class and want to just slide by-dont take Dr. C. Chemistry is a tough class and if you really want to learn Dr. C can help you but this is a college class so those of you writing negative things need to wake up- this is what college is like. In the end you learn. Shes an excellent professor. The Best at STC for Chem majors.

Dr. Cortez is always willing to help any student not just those in her class. She will go out of her way to do any thing she can for the students. The subject its self may not be so friendly but Dr. Cortez finds ways to make it interestings.

Kids are just a scream, aren't they? I am an "older" person taking classes. YES, you must buy the book. YES, you must read the book. YES, you must come to class. People actually ask these questions!! Cortez is thorough. She is fair and she spends way too much time stressing over her students. She worries about each one and how she can help.

Ok this lady seriously thinks she is teaching highschool, She dosent get it that its a college class, She is such a hard grader she takes points off for the smallest thing. Its hard to get an A in that class unless your life revolves around Chem. She is realy good at teaching but she is hard!

I think Dr. C is one of the best teachers I've ever had. It's hard to get on her bad side. The only way you could get on her bad side is by not going to class and expect for her to pass you. You have to work for your grade. It really helped me that I had a study group. She knows what she is talking about and she is very helpful. She is fair.

Organic is a hard class!Cortez will be there to help you 100%, but if you do not put time and effort in class and ask questions with what you do not understand, do not expect to pass.she will be there to help you!I truely believe that she is a great professor and you actually learn in that class..about the bad comment posted previously ITS NOT TRUE
