Comment:

He is the most amazing teacher i ever had in 23 years. first of all, he is kind human being without any attitude. he explains the material so well that you will fall in love with chemistry. extremely helpful and will give you a lot of chances to get points in the class. i do recommend taking Chem 3 before taking chem 1A.

Comment:

Abrams wants you to learn and UNDERSTAND chemistry. He hates memorizing things, he would rather tell you a story so you understand it then memorizing. He loves what he does, and he is an absolute genius. He prepares you for the test, nothing on the test is something you havent seen before. Take him. One of the best professors I have ever had.

Professor Abrams RULES. He is one of the nicest professors you will ever have, hes one of those teachers you want to stay after and chat with after class, SUCH as nice guy. His class is like the military, you wont know what you got yourself into until half-way through the semester. Hardest class Ive ever taken in life,but I love it! Oh, and study!

Comment:

He's extremely passionate about chemistry and it shows in the way he teaches. I don't suggest taking the class with the Physics 4A/B/C and Math 3A/B/C. You have to put in a large amount of time to do well, but it pays off in the end.

Comment:

If you are going to take this class, then make sure you have a lot of free time to study. His tests are very similar to the packets he gives you. He didn't go over the last two packets well, so I didn't know how to solve the problems. It helps to have a study-buddy. Labs are long and fun, but he's a bit of a picky grader on those.

Professor Abrams does a tremendous job in keep the material entertaining. You immediately notice that he enjoys teaching and will take the time to help those who are confused. Although I received an A, the class was not easy. Try to create study groups and reviewing the material every day. : ]

Fantastic Professor and I had him 10 years ago. Go to class and ask him for help when you need it. YOU should be able to get a B or higher by attending.

Do the packets or fail the tests. He's very good about taking the time to teach you outside of class if you didn't understand his lectures. You don't use the book very much you can just borrow it from the library. Take your time to do the labs right.

Ok so I took Abrams a few years ago and today someone asked me which class did I enjoy the most in college, and I answered chem 1A. Everyone gasped and said CHEMISTRY!? And I said no not just any chemistry, Abrams made chemistry so interesting because he was so knowledgeable and passionate about it and his students. Hard class but you learn!

Comment:

Anyone who's ever written a negative review about Abrams they must have really not put forth any effort AT ALL. He's the best Chem prof. you'll ever have. It's a tough class but make SURE you do the packets (He started it last semester), they're pretty menacing but will save you come test day. Write down EVERYTHING he says/writes & you'll be fine!
