Reviews of professor Kiet Tran

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Tran is one of the most disrespectful professors I have ever had. He is rude to students if they ask any questions, and accused me of lying about my grandfather dying to get out of a lab on the day of his funeral. Do not take from him if you want a professor who respects you.

He is sassy and has a lot of attitude. He is pretty disrespectful to his students and then wonders why no one wants to participate in class. His exams are pretty fair game but Orgo 2 is just a hard subject in general. He gives a lot of extra credit which genuinely help your grade so much. Overall class is manageable butas a person he isnt the best

He has a very condescending way of doing lectures, will stop said lectures to scold class if he feels we aren't answering enough questions, which of course discourages participation. Doesn't seem to understand he's teaching a general/beginner chemistry class and not his beloved org. chem class. Knows his stuff, but could do without the "dad-itude".

Though Dr. Tran gets a bad reputation for being rude for a reason, he is an incredible professor. I did not take him for Orgo 1 because of the reviews I read on Rate My Professor and now that I have him for Orgo 2 I realize how much of a disservice I did myself. Dr. Tran is an incredible professor, and explains concepts to understand not memorize.
