Comment:
Hardest teacher at four c's, hardest tests because they're timed and he pulls information from parts no one would think to study. Research paper. Lots of papers in lab. Have to do alot of studying. I have always had As in everything and Ill consider myself lucky if I get a C. I wouldn't take a class with him if you can avoid it.

Comment:
Such a hard class, but a very interesting one. Chikarmane is a funny guy and lectures and labs are awesome! Tests... good luck! Just study and go to the tutoring center as often as possible and you can manage to get a decent grade in this class. Biggest advice: Don't take a full course load with this class! Must dedicate a lot of time to pass!

Comment:
I've never worked so hard for a B+ in my life. Loved the material. NOT an easy class. He is super smart, and funny. Hard not to like him even though he is tough. I put it about 20+ hours a week studying. Do not recommend taking this class over the summer.

The hardest class I have ever taken!LOTS of info to memorize.Test are very hard.He finds it funny to be tricky on tests and although you really want to hate him you just can't. He is extremely intelligent and very funny! There is a research paper, 4 exams, and a 200 question hard final exam. He does offer an extra credit paper...DO IT!!!

Very knowledgeable and helpful when asked questions. Podcasts all lectures so studying wasn't too bad. There is a lot of information, but there should be. Tests aren't easy but aren't impossible either. If you put in the study time you'll do fine. Posts textbook online, so you don't have to buy one. Labs are easy.

Tests were extremely long and difficult, teacher could be difficult to understand (although he did podcasts which could be helpful for playback). Dry sense of humor, but could keep it interesting. Plan to study hard.

Comment:
Tests extremely tough, knew his info but expected too much from a summer class. Don't call him for help in lab more than 2 times. After that, could tell he was aggravated. Dry humor. decent lab. School needs another teacher for this. Taken this before another school and much better. would have liked a hard text to explain better. Doesn't use one

he is funny, smart, and seems to love what he does but...his class is not easy whatsoever because of the tests and not knowing where he he going to pull some of the questions from--thus, stressful. help? tells you to see the tutor who will only tell you to memorize every word he writes and says. which is the best advice anyone can offer. because of

I learned more from him than any other instructor at CCCC. He is a working scientist at Woods Hole. I screwed up my lab but worked my butt off in his class, so I still got a B. Most of the students didn't get his sense of humor.

Has interesting lectures. no textbook - just a cd with slides and readings. lab was terrible. he assigned us a TA (i didnt know community colleges had these) and she had no clue what she was doing. assignments were not explained clearly. tests were extremely hard and the final was ridiculous - 18 pages and 150+ questions in 2hrs!

I loved this guy. He made a wicked BORING subject fun with his dry sense of humor. I'd take another class with him.
