She was helpful in answering questions when I met with her during office hours. She's good at clarifying things while talking to her at her office.

Absolutely my favorite professor at Ohio University so far. She is goofy and makes attending class easy. Material is difficult, it is a shame she retired, she was awesome!

Comment:

Dr. Eichstadt is an absolutely wonderful professor. You can tell that she really cares if students understand the material. She's infinitely helpful when it comes to preparing for tests and exams also. I'm sorry I only had one of her classes once because, sadly, she is retiring after Spring08.

Comment:

She's really not that bad. It's just that the class itself is really hard. If you pay attention, like, really really well you will be fine. I've always gotten away with just reading the book.. but that didn't work so well here. She's pretty good about telling you what's going to be on the tests and quizzes, which I thought was helpful. Don't worry!

Good teacher! Really cares about her students, will go out of her way for you, if you just ask. She's really prepared for class with lots of examples and powerpoint, but expects you to be prepared too.

blazes through chapters, with my class schedule i never attended the SI but i bet would be a lot of help. her tests are redic, you HAVE to know everything in order to pass, if you dont know everything, you pretty much bomb them.

Comment:

I had always heard Chem 152 is the hardest of the general chem series. This class is really hard!!!! Dr. Eichstadt, however, is the perfect teacher for this class. She really cares about her students and really does want to make sure every one is with her in class. 2 hard midterm exams, but you are normally prepared. Take a learning community bc

Comment:

She explains things very well but i suggest definately going to class. If you don't you will probably not have a clue. The quizzes and tests are pretty rough but if you have a good start to the problem but can't finish it she will still give partial points.. no curve though

Comment:

This lady isn't the witch everyone makes her out to be. Her class is informative and interesting. I was usually hung over in clas but I still managed B's on all the exams. If you put 2 hours of effort into studying for the exams you'll be fine. Do the old practice exams!!!! Thats the ONLY way I studied.

Comment:

She's one of the better profs in the Chem department. Chemistry is hard enough and most new students don't study thats why they do poorly. She is willing to help outside of class and is a very fair grader. Her explainations are great. They always cleared up tough topics for me. If you have a choice of profs...TAKE her.

Okay, Some people like her, some people hate her. I had her for three quarters, and truthfully, she is not too bad. Pay attention in class. Come to class. She doesn't curve; but she does throw in "pity points" if you work your butt off and she knows it. GO TO CLASS!
