Comment:

Great professor. He's interesting and clear. Exams were difficult but definitely doable. Very fair class. If you put in the time you'll do great. He's extremely helpful. Offers extra credit assignment which turned out to be the same exact thing from one of the SI lectors... I would definitely recommend him.

Comment:

Excellent Professor, expects a lot of work but only because he knows that his students are capable of doing the work. He is also extremely helpful and will never turn a student down if they express an earnest need for aid. He will always do what he can for his students and there are not many professors like him at the university level anymore.

Comment:

Professor Webster is hands down the best professor I have had at UCR. He is a very honest man who does not try to screw the class over. Of course his expectations are high, but he makes sure that his students are learning the material. I would definitely recommend him to those who value and cherish learning from a man with many years of experience.

Comment:

In the syllabus, Dr. Webster gives tips for performing well in his class. They are NO JOKE. I got a C in Chem 1A and a C- in Chem 1B, but have scored a B or above on both midterms and all but 1 quiz. He is demanding, but will never ask more of you than you can give. Just do the work, and you will do well. He gives you every chance to pass. Use it.

Comment:

I had him for chem 1A, even though his exams are kinda tricky in times, his lecture explains most of the stuff fairly well. on top of that, he has a nice curve and midterm redemption system, so you can learn a lot in his class, and yet it is still possible to get an A. Best chem prof. i had so far.

Comment:

Prof. Webster truly teaches his students about chemistry. He is not the avg professor who just throws you a few formulas and if you memorize them well enough you get an A. Study hard for the tests; they're challenging but fair! Despite the grade you receive, you're guaranteed to learn more than any other section.

Hard Tests, no Sample midterms. He knows his stuff though and I highly suggest going to lectures. Do not cram for these kind of midterms otherwise there "WILL BE PAIN"

Comment:

Professor Webster is such a nice guy if you respect him. His tests are a little tricky so you need to know the material but if you go to class and pay attention you'll do great. There's also a nice curve so like 80% is still an A-, and if you score better on the final than your lowest midterm grade he will raise the percentage on the low midterm.

I find myself really missing this lecturer. If you are in school to challenge yourself, do not avoid him. If you earn his respect, it is for life. He is a wonderful teacher and human being. I had him for my 1A class.

Quite honestly the best professor I have had @ UCR so far. His lectures are informative with interesting stories in between to reinforce knowledge. Midterms are somewhat challenging cause he actually makes you think. But Final is pretty easy compared to the midterms.

Will talk about the navy use military time and tell other strange but very interesting stories about his life that make you respect him. He is a really cool guy but his exams are very hard and he only teaches calculations while he tests concepts.

Comment:

His midterms purely test an individuals ability to apply concepts to problems. Very tricky problems but very easy to do. Most of the questions were not even discussed in lecture but through his teaching one was able to manipulate an answer. Take him if u want to learn Chemistry, he will prepare u for the MCAT! I got an A in the class!
