Grading rubric is 10% Webassign HW and 90% tests. Huge curves, arrogant, terrible handwriting. Straight up not helpful. Take anyone else.

Comment:

He did not teach us anything throughout the semester. I had to use the textbook and take teach myself everything. His notes are useless due to the fact that his handwriting is terrible. Hes lazy sends so many emails, audio lectures suck. As a stem major avoid this man. My success in this class was attributed to self-teaching not him.

DO. NOT. TAKE. I will admit that my grade also represents my effort, however this professor acts stuck-up. very lazy. Would never recommend. This class is not the easiest but he does not make it any easier.

Comment:

This man might actually be one of the worst professors at NC State, not even kidding. I had coronavirus and he refused to give me extensions on any of my assignments. I had to email my advisor and she had to report him to the head of the Chemistry Department. Does not give 2 craps about his students. only posts 10 min audio lectures. hard to learn.

Worst teacher I have ever had in my ENTIRE LIFE and that's saying something. He is no help at all. I learn by taking notes out of the textbook every day. He is rude over email too. I regret choosing him.

Comment:

He is the worst chem professor I have ever had. He does not help through email and he certainly does not care about his students. I had to work on my own and I ended up having a C which I changed to credit only. Will not take him ever again. Worst experience ever.

Comment:

Okay I just want to give some tips to my fellow panicker when they realize who their professor is. Warren is the worst professor and believes the the best/wisest and will blame you for bad grades. In addition to his 15 minute audio lectures you're going to need to buy course hero for a month and print all the files they have for his class and pray.

Comment:

Warren doesn't care about his class or students, the recorded lectures clearly have no though or effort put into him, and if you ask for assistance he will simply tell you to read the notes again.

Comment:

Dr. Warren provides all the materials to teach you - textbook, examples, help files and audio lectures. He will prepare you to teach yourself material for the MCAT, PCAT, DAT, etc. Warren is not going to spoon feed material, but he won't leave you to dry when you're lost. He answered my numerous emails about homework within the hour.

Comment:

Don't let the other reviews scare you. I took this my first semester, not having taken a chem class in years, and did fine without the textbook. Dr. Warren lectures are crucial, his notes are also an exact replica of the test. Pay attention and you will do well. Very dry humor, but going to office hours is very helpful too if confused.

Comment:

If you enjoy chemistry, you'll love Dr. Warren. He teaches you to understand, not to memorize. He's a little quirky, but he truly cares about his students. He gives great real-life examples and exams are very similar to practice tests. Don't be intimidated by the ratings on here. Take this class!

Comment:

If you are someone who struggles in chemistry, this class will be very challenging. The homeworks are very long and tedious and only count for 10% of the final grade. The only other grades received in the class are the 4 test grades and the graders are very very tough. I have emailed the professor multiple times with questions and he never answered

Comment:

Dr. Warren is nice and cares about his students succeeding, as he helped our grades during the COVID crisis after many of us tanked the second exam after it being moved online. However, his lectures are dry and doesn't get the material across well. I had to get lots of help to succeed, so my success wasn't on his teaching abilities. Take another!

Comment:

Dr. Warren is a good person and is pretty funny. Unfortunately he was not a great lecturer. He makes the class way harder than other professors teaching this class. He goes into way more detail than necessary. Having the class online (corona)was better because it allowed students to take their time going through the notes and grasping the concept.

Comment:

Monty Python jokes are a constant. Look I wouldn't recommend this prof unless you're an phenomenal student or have a knack for chemistry. I got A's in orgo1 and 2 as well as chem 1 and barely scraped by because the material was difficult and tests mean just about EVERYTHING. show up to class and use that book as your bible.

Comment:

I had Warren during the COVID-19 situation. He is old fashioned, and likes to stick to handwritten notes. He adjusted the course as we progressed in order to make it possible for his students to obtain a higher grade. He is straightforward, but cares about his student succeeding. Old tests are similar to new ones, and attendance is not needed.

Comment:

Lectures rely on handwritten notes that he doesn't upload after class so if you didn't catch something you have to go to office hours on your own time. Test 1 is very similar to practice test but test 2 and 3 depend on how far he gets in lecture so be careful. Partial credit will save you on tests since they're free response so try to write stuff.
